No, I agree.
It always baffled me when I encountered a black man who was vocal about something like the Civil Rights Movement,
but thinks a woman needs to shut up and get back in the kitchen,
or a muslim woman who objects to being labeled a terrorist for her niqab,
but thinks that the LGBT is unnatural and should be lynched,
or a Christian who supports the LGBT and feminism,
but thinks Atheists should be burned at the stake.
The principle is the same:
human rights are human rights are human rights.
(And, while I'm here, animal rights are animal rights, too).
