Two things we know: Chad Felix Greene is a Twitchy favorite and Rep. Richard Dangler of Washington needs to get his Twitter account verified. He also needs to wrap his mind around the idea that conservatives don’t really care if Chad is gay.
Or maybe he’s just a parody account and he’s trolling us all. He doesn’t seem to have rated any news coverage at all.
Our story takes us back to this tweet from HuffPost’s Kimberly Johnson:
I thought I'd wake up to a great day. Instead, I see @JoeNBC defending the white supremacist president, @facebook letting Ben Shapiro do what I was kicked off for doing, and Nate Silver lecturing us that we should let Trump have one good day.
Common theme: Privileged white men.

The typical response from a weak, sexist man. https://t.co/XxFgsR13gy

Oh, it’s on.
Did you seriously just assume gender? Shame on you.
— The?BOO (@PolitiBunny) October 28, 2019
I'm a nonbinary gay person you transphobic bigot. ? https://t.co/lD4RIU23UV

Here’s where Dangler comes in. As we said, he’s not verified, but he certainly sounds like a progressive lawmaker.
And a self loathing one apparently.
— Rep. Richard Dangler (@RDangler) October 28, 2019
Chad is 'gaying right' again!
Unacceptable.
— Jason (@jawesomeberg) October 28, 2019
Chad can gay anyway he wants as far as I am concerned.
It's just that most conservatives don't see it that way.
— Rep. Richard Dangler (@RDangler) October 29, 2019
I don't care if Chad is gay. I don't have the problem.
The majority of conservatives do.
Reading is fundamental.
— Rep. Richard Dangler (@RDangler) October 29, 2019
So Dangler speaks for the majority of conservatives now? He needs to have his software updated.
You sure about that?

Conservative here, no issues with it at all.

Sorry to break your narrative. We do not.

No, most don’t.

— The Versificator (@JcMaj7) October 29, 2019
That’s kind of bigoted, honestly, that you would say that.
— Get a real holiday ? (@HallzmNC) October 29, 2019
No, the majority of conservatives do NOT have a problem with him being gay.
— Valentine M. (@ActualValentine) October 29, 2019
? Conservative here…. kind of a fan of Chad
— Texas Jayhawk (@MikeJohnson71TC) October 29, 2019
Conservative and tolerant. You do you Chad!
— Jen Edwards (@Jennife25485619) October 29, 2019
I honestly want to know why you believe that. Do you think all conservatives are Westboro Baptist members? How many conservatives do you know?
— Bleu Cheque (@DKCMOM1) October 29, 2019
I'm old enough to remember when overly broad generalizations were considered a bad thing. We see through your claims of open-mindedness
— Jack (Hammer Time!) Martens (@JackMartensite) October 29, 2019
The last thing I’ll ever be concerned about is someone’s sexual preference. What consenting adults do in the privacy of their home is not my business.
Let’s keep it that way.— Jim Mattor (@jimmattor) October 29, 2019
I'm a conservative, I think he's awesome.
— i8anEwok (@i8anEwok) October 29, 2019
Lol. Tell that to his 32,000 conservative twitter followers…
— Svein Erik (@sveinerikthered) October 29, 2019
No, we don't. Try again.
— karenWV (@kelsieA67) October 29, 2019
No, we really don't though.
— Trey Best (@TreyBest6) October 29, 2019
I fully endorse Chad's right to be as fabulous as his heart desires.
— Reagan's Raptor (@ReagansRaptor) October 29, 2019
Wrong. I don't know a single conservative that cares whether someone is gay.
— Matthew (@thematthew26) October 29, 2019
No we don't. Sad that someone that is suppose to represent all the people of their district would be so bigoted.
— 1000thghost (@1000thghostauto) October 29, 2019
Conservative here. I love Chad. You should check your bigotry.
— Dr. Ramirez ?? ??? (@cybr_gk) October 29, 2019
False. Most dont care.
— Mike. D. (@underd0gz) October 29, 2019
Small 'c' conservative here. Don't care about his preferences.
— Ogre (@ActiveOgre) October 29, 2019
Yeah……… pic.twitter.com/JBNTlf6yDw
— FatNinja (@GaBiggunn) October 29, 2019
That ship sailed. Maybe some old hold overs, but vast majority just don't care anymore. Live and let live.
— Mac (@ScrutonsHair) October 29, 2019
Conservative here. Let me check. Nope. I don’t give a flip.
— Lymarie Jackson (@lymariepj) October 29, 2019
No, we actually don't. ??♀️
— Kimberly Ross (@SouthernKeeks) October 29, 2019
Only in your mind.
— Britt Smith (@ReformedBritt) October 29, 2019
LMAO the majority of conservatives really don’t give a shit about other people’s love lives. Liberals do. It’s creepy.
— Not Mandie (@ImNotMandie) October 29, 2019
How about you not presume to speak for all conservatives, and I won't judge you. Conservative gay chick here.
— Teresa Jackson ? (@RestoreHonor) October 29, 2019
Your mind reading ability has failed. Get a life.
— Shauna (@Shauna74891161) October 29, 2019
Open your mind… stop stereotyping gay people by saying they're self loathing if they don't think the way you do. And stop stereotyping conservatives by saying they hate the LGBTQ community… It's shortsighted and old…
— Kristine (@Kristin42039785) October 29, 2019
born again Christian conservative here who does not appreciate being lied about. I really don't care who Chad chooses to love. You, apparently, *do* care about it which makes *you* the "bigot".
— Stuart Carter (@stuartjcarter) October 29, 2019
Conservative and a fan of Chad. You are wrong again.
— JMo (@JMo10398586) October 29, 2019
You're projecting, Dangler.
— John Cicero (@CommonPlebeian) October 29, 2019
I don't know who Chad is, but I don't care if he's gay.
Sincerely,
A conservative— Jeepers Threepers (@LogicalLogic76) October 29, 2019
Is this actually Representative Dick Dangler commenting on Chad’s sexuality here? Not a parody account?#simulation
— Becka Thompson (@becka_thompson) October 29, 2019
You need to leave your bubble more…
— Friendly, Neighborhood Lummox (@lummox_ict) October 29, 2019
how do you know the majority of conservatives care?
— JamesWoodsStanAccount (@woods_account) October 29, 2019
He is one of us. And belongs here
— Julie Merlot (@julie_merlot) October 29, 2019
I don’t give a damn if he’s gay. This comment is ridiculous and repulsive.
— j (@jsparrow1622) October 29, 2019
Please. You know nothing of conservative values. Most of the conservatives that I know stand for individual God given liberty. All humans regardless of race, gender, or sexual orientation should have the same rights. We have free will and are beholden to the consequences of them.
— Terri (@Loveand4give7) October 29, 2019
Listen Dick, may I call you Dick? Most of us modern conservatives are fine with this. What we’re not fine with is how absolutely insane the Democratic Party has become. Have a great day Dick ✌️
— Jeff Hazlett (@JeffSHazlett) October 29, 2019
Modern conservatives like you are not the majority.
— Rep. Richard Dangler (@RDangler) October 29, 2019
Getting ratioed by conservatives really opened his eyes.
To you that maybe true.
But not to the conservative base.
This isn't hard people. I'm not telling you anything that can't be backed up by years of empirical data, polling and court decisions.
You cons are getting better but you still have a way to go.
— Rep. Richard Dangler (@RDangler) October 29, 2019
Democrat rep: 'Conservatives hate you for being gay!!'
Me: 'Uh…no they don't.'
Dozens of conservatives: 'Uh…no we don't.'
Democrat rep: *smugly 'Years of studies and data don't lie! I know how they really feel!!'
Me: ?
Conservatives: ???
— Chad Felix Greene ?? (@chadfelixg) October 29, 2019
Gotta be a parody: Dangler notes that he has “quite a few” gay friends.
I have quite a few gay friends.
— Rep. Richard Dangler (@RDangler) October 29, 2019
Sure you do. Any conservative ones?
