Does no one know what the suffix phobic means? I am not scared of homosexuals; I don’t agree with their actions, beliefs, etc. So, no I am not homophobic (which would not be the correct term, anyway). I guess I could be considered islamphobic. They do scare me but not unreasonably. I have very good reason.

Phobic means an irrational fear. I believe there are rational reasons not to like subversive cultures.

Thank you! Throwing “phobic” after something without knowing what it means is typical of the left. I’m definitely Islamophobic as they scare the crap out of me. I’m only disgusted by homosexuals — not “phobic”.

It means whatever those who desire power over our thoughts say it means.

Like everything else the left wing commies touch, they have perverted the meaning of the word “phobic” from its original meaning “to fear”, with root word “phobia” meaning “an irrational fear”, and made up a new pretend meaning hatred.

A phobia does not imply any hatred, but as usual, the left steals a perfectly good word like “gay” which means happy, and perverts it for their own agenda.

One of their religions is political correctness.
