There was a mass epidemic of homophobia. DOMA and DADT are both products of this era. Sen Jesse Helms called us "weak, morally sick wretches." Sen. Lott said that being gay was like alcoholism, kleptomania, or a sex addiction.

#MatthewShepard, born 1 December 1976, was brutally assaulted on 6 October 1998 in a homophobic hate crime attack in Wyoming that shocked and galvanized our world. On 12 October 1998 he succumbed to his horrific injuries. He is a martyr saint of #Antinous! More: https://antinousstars.blogspot.com/2022/10/matthew-shepard-saint-of-antinous.html
