Log Cabin Republicans are mostly libertarians (in the US sense of the term), but in recent years they’ve been trying to appeal to social conservatives with the idea that same-sex marriage allows gay/lesbian people to adopt most tradcon ideals (though not the parts about the dominant partner automatically being a man and the submissive automatically being a woman, or breeding up as many white people as possible, which are actually pretty core ideas that can’t be dismissed so casually) and thus they’re normal and good, just like you. But it’s still okay to shit on trans people and non-binary people, and to a lesser extent gay/les/bi people who refuse to be “respectable”. In other words, they’re trying to claim “model minority” privileges. This hasn’t gone over well with the MAGA types which control the Republican Party. Just because MAGAs mostly focus on the TQ right now doesn’t mean that their attitudes towards the LGB have softened.
