Bigotry is often intersectional.
No problem is i know enough people that get racismed that hate themselves on LGBT (and the other way around)
Of course there are many people that are racist and hate LGBT, but as said before, those are two different things.
I mean yeah, they are two different things. Hence two different names for two different concepts. They are already differentiated.
But they coincide all the time. And the groups that are active in the US that are trying to push forward systemic racist or LGBT-phobic policies are almost always doing both. The antagonists in the article are doing both.
Hm.
Also the tactics used by bigots to oppress both classes separately are the same. So the resistance to that oppression is better off working together
