My theory is: it's the opposite. They're encouraging LGBT-etcs to be batshit insane to force the right to openly oppose them, so they can say: 'MAGA/Republicans are hateful and they want you dead. Vote for us, or else lose your rights and die.'
If it had stopped at gay marriage (and grudging tolerance of transgenders), most people on the right wouldn't care, and the left would lose its captive LGBT+++++++ voters. They HAVE to keep them estranged from the right.
They do the same with other minorities too, with tools like BLM. And who could ever forget 'You ain't black'?
Take a look at what the alphabet people are saying - the only issue they care about is LGBT positivity. They genuinely believe that republicans want them dead merely for existing. BLM types think blacks are being murdered with the full approval of the state.
It doesn't matter how terribly the dems fuck everything else up. It wouldn't matter if the republicans were better on 99 issues out of 100. In their eyes, whoever doesn't worship LGBT/BLM is evil. They emotionally blackmail their family and friends to vote blue no matter who, because if they don't, 'You're voting for people who want me dead!'
But it's not just about the fringe vote. The democrats are perceived as the party of love, tolerance, and enlightenment. That false image gets them a LOT of midwit votes. If they normalize something, they have to push the envelope further in the next cycle so they can keep 'tolerance' out of the hands of the right, and maintain a monopoly on the whole 'party of love' shtick.
In the end it will be their undoing. But remember: they're evil and they're cunning, but they're also incompetent. Their entire worldview demands incompetence.
