It's the same old bigotry and homophobia and hate that the so cons like to use. And the Sheep fall for bullshit conspiracy after conspiracy again and again!

LGBT grooming conspiracy theory
The term groomer is derived from the practice of child grooming. As described by Vox, "Conservatives us[e] it to imply that the LGBTQ community, their allies, and liberals more generally are pedophiles or pedophile-enablers".[1] Research has shown that LGBT people do not molest children at higher rates than non-LGBT people.[2][3][4][5]
Kristen Mark of the University of Minnesota Medical School has described the conspiracy as "a tool to create hysteria and to create a social panic", calling it "frankly inaccurate".[43] Emily Johnson of Ball State University has also described it as a moral panic, saying that there is "no better moral panic than a moral panic centered on potential harm to children".[44] Alejandra Caraballo of the Berkman Klein Center for Internet & Society has described it as "an attempt at the dehumanization and delegitimization of ***** people's identities by associating them with pedophilia", adding that "when you start labeling groups with that, the calls for violence are inevitable."[45] Jenifer McGuire, a professor in the department of family social science at the University of Minnesota, said that the grooming conspiracy theory comes "from an underlying desire to separate people who are different and to characterize them as less than or as evil. So it's a new form of homophobia and transphobia — or it's maybe the same old form but with new language."[2] R.G. Cravens of California Polytechnic State University has described the conspiracy as "completely, patently false".[46]
The Canadian Anti-Hate Network has stated that trans people are "slandered the same way homosexual men were slandered in the 70s, and for the same reason: to deny them safety and equal rights", adding that "the far-right and their fellow travellers in the so-called Gender Critical or Trans-Exclusionary Radical Feminist movements use the exact same tropes in a bid to deny equal rights to trans persons."[47] Florence Ashley, a professor at the University of Toronto, has stated that the conspiracy theory's focus on LGBT people in general and its focus on trans people in particular is being used to radicalize public opinion towards the far-right, comparing it to the great replacement conspiracy theory.[48]
Charles T. Moran, President of the Log Cabin Republicans, called the conspiracy theory a "subtle subterfuge that gays are pedophiles", adding that "I will take flak from people that this is reinforcing a trope that is not beneficial for anybody who's gay in public life. Pedophiles exist at a much higher proportion in the straight community than the gay community, but it is always a shtick our critics will go back to."[52

Their sexuality or gender identity is none of my business, nor yours!
So mind your own affairs and live your own life and stop encouraging and supporting LGBQT+ bigotry and hate conspiracies that have been discredited.
