When he complained, rightwingers sent him homophobic taunts online.
Black gay Republican podcaster Rob Smith has claimed that “white supremacist” members of his political party called him “fa**ot” and the n-word during his Sunday night attendance of Turning Point USA’s AmericaFest event in Phoenix, Arizona. Though Smith posted a video of his brief interaction with the aggressors, commenters on X (formerly Twitter) noted that the video didn’t feature the n-word and mocked Smith his membership in an anti-gay political party.
“Last night in Phoenix, I was confronted and surrounded by some White Supremacists that don’t like gays or blacks in the Republican Party,” Smith wrote in a December 18 post on X. “They shouted ‘nr’ and ‘ft’ at me to make their point. However, I served in Iraq. I never back down. Ever.”
Shit, is there a Leopards Eating Faces community yet? If not, this would be a prime contender for the first post.

Hot take: If leopards are only eating faces on one side of the political spectrum, maybe you need to consider that only one side is consistently voting for leopards eating faces.

He is like that dude from Saw who cut off his leg to get free, but the chain hasn’t been actaully connected to anything but him. And as a war-forged vet, he promise he’d cut another one just to keep grifting. If something, that scandal only upped his media visibility, and there would be lots of people curious wtf he even is, and to bait him with slurs as he does react on them. Hold it, his stonks bag says, hold it, as you can always run safe at a short notice. Next it would be flying bottles and he’d still think he can earn a little more before quiting. It’s not safe to be a career hypocrite.
First they came for the n***** f******
I don’t see those two words together often, but when I do it always brings me back to that derrick comedy spelling bee sketch
I’m really glad I wasn’t the only one lmao, I wasn’t sure if I should have even made the joke.
black man attends KKK meeting, shocked to find they were rather rude to him

and in the process managed to change some of these people’s minds.

This is like an Atheist going to a Jewish synagogue and expecting Jews to reject their religious beliefs.
