1. If "they don't kill people" is your only good thing, consider me underwhelmed.
2. I disagree. Maybe there's a vast difference to you, but it looks a whole lot like semantics to me. I don't see a huge difference in "homosexuals should be jailed" and "homosexuals shouldnt be accepted." If homosexuality was deemed "unacceptable" by the whole of society then how do you think it would be treated? Any guesses?
The whole "but the book of mormon" thing is great, but that's my point. We joke around and normalise the whole thing and laugh about it when most mormons still just go on... being terrible... but hey... we made a play about them and they didn't kill us so it's fine. There are plenty of artistic mockeries of the KKK and white nationalism without direct violent recourse. Is that really the measuring stick?

Maybe you ought to re-read the thread, I don't see anyone rationalizing him being a gross pervert. Except for Cliff, maybe. But certainly nobody excused it.
