You think people choose their sexuality and gender?
Interesting.
When did you choose to be straight?
Ok now this clearly shows you're a bigot before all else. You never came here to argue in good faith, did you? Just move goalpoasts and exploit the struggles of native american people as cover for your hatred.
If you're truly native american as you say, you're a terrible representative for your people. But thankfully, unlike you, we don't assume one individual is a representative for all.
Which one did I assume was the representative for all of you? I have different burns lined up for Miller or Jenner, so you're going to have to remind me which one it was.
My argument has always been that important issues should get more air time. Flint, MI got some, mostly because the water there affected white people. Now let's see that for some of us redskins. It only took you about 100 years to change the football team. I'll hold my breath.
You've pointed out specific LGBT individuals as if they're somehow a representation of the wider community. For someone complaining about one dimensional focus you sure spend a lot of time calling out these people specifically because they're LGBT and not all of the other reasons they're getting attention. Ever considered these are just famous rich people that get more airtime just like all famous rich people do? Not exactly exclusive to the LGBT community is it?
And my argument is who makes you the arbitrer of which issues are more important than others? Who do you think should get to decide, because, news flash, it's not the minorities who are calling the shots here. Again, if that's your issue, you need to take it up with the people who do have the power to decide, not shit on the LGBT community.
And as an aside - Flint is majority African American, by a wide margin: https://www.census.gov/quickfacts/fact/table/flintcitymichigan/PST045222
