I imagine the reverse is true too.

The local news carried a story the other day about a school that was
hypeing diversity, and they instructed the kids to make T-shirts with
anti-homophobe sayings to participate.  Some sharp little cookies came
up with "Homophobia is Gay".  They were told to change since that
would be considered a disparaging comment under the present regime.

I'm not making this up.  Nicely done t's too, silkscreened, with
sparkles.

Yo baloo.
