YouTube demonetizing videos where LGBTQ keywords are said

Since the conservative movement as a whole has been generally moving to deny LGBTQ people the right to marry (see: attempts to overturn Obergefell in conservative states), the right to serve in the military (see: transgender military ban) and the right to not be discriminated against (see: masterpiece cakeshop).

I'm not going to deny that there are LGBT conservatives. But the fact is that conservative politicians as a whole demonize LGBTQ people and have attempted multiple times to censor them [1] or bar them from aid.

"As a whole" they do not. There exists many who do, to paint it part and parcel of conservatism is incorrect.

One could just as well claim it's not their conservatism, but religious beliefs.

I would argue "as a whole" describes the situation prudently. After all, the parent is pointing specifically at politicians even - not just all people. "In general", "overall", "on average", and "prominently" also all work I think.

Using weasel-words doesn't absolve ad hominem.

Conservatives like Obama in 2008?
