If you’ll notice, HHM stopped criticizing after I pointed out the flaws, and the fact that I actually agree that liberals can be intolerant despite the rhetoric. 
We both agree on the left's intolerance, so why belittle the guy's experiences?

Why is it a shite article? Are you calling him a liar? Did you want him to include names of people who have shunned him or called him a white supremacist?

As far as his sexuality and politics, can't you see how the title “Coming Out As A Republican To My Democrat Family Went Worse Than Coming Out Gay” is showing the hypocrisy of his family and friends on the left?

These supposed "flaws" you talk about are your opinion, versus his experiences.

1. Because this is an attention seeking piece that adds absolutely nothing to the conversation. It is click bait. I question these “experiences” ever happened, and I 100% question that he would surmise the reasonings behind the alleged slights from friends and family.

2. As ive stated before, it’s click bait that adds nothing, except fervor to the right. And I’ll say it, yep, I think he is a liar. I don’t want people to write this kind of bullshite. If you are, then yes, I want some specifics. Otherwise, I’m inclined to believe that it is nothing more than a puff piece for the right.

3. It implies his family was not accepting of his coming out as gay. And no, it doesn’t do a good job of highlighting hypocrisy. It plays to stupid platitudes with no relevant info.

His “experiences”, which may or may not have any bearing reality. Like my example saying that you hate me because I’m a veteran. That would be “my experience”. Which is the entire premise upon which he/I would operate.

This isn’t good for calling out hypocritical statements about inclusion. Opinion pieces aren’t generally for that.
