Are the only shows he watches Kimmy Schmidt, RuPaul’s Drag Race, Orange is the New Black, and Pose? I get the impression the only way he can get an idea like that are if his media tastes skew strongly towards gay media. And if he’s that homophobic, and his tastes evidently skew that far towards gay stuff that he thinks black people are more likely to be LGBTQ than straight in media (it’s one thing if they’re more common in media than in real life, but this is just strangely wrong), the whole Armored Closet Gay stuff really starts to make sense.
Edit: It took a while, but I found it in Post 1064, with him asking "Would you say that there's more black lbgt representation than straight black representation?"
Stop it, the only movies to win best picture, with black main characters in the last 5 years were about gay black men. Find ONE movie starring straight black men that has won an Oscar in the past 20 years (slave movies don't count).
There's Billy Porter, a talentless hack, who's only claim to fame is being a black man that wears dressees on the red carpet (do a Google image search of him). It was interesting to see Billy get butthurt at Harry Styles for wearing a dress because he knows he has zero talent.

There’s more, but you asked for one.
