I’ve heard it explained that “hey” used to be more of an urgent way to get someone’s attention, rather than a casual “hello” like it is now, so it sounded rude to some older folks.

    We all should have anticipated that after the “don’t say gay” law, there will be a “don’t say hey” law

      It’s not the “don’t say gay” law, it’s the “stop trying to indoctrinate children with queer ideology”, law. I could see how you would get that confused…

        How about we stop trying to indoctrinate children with hetero-normative ideology.

            Being hetro is as sick as being homo.

            Stop holding hands with your girlfriend in public, and don’t you dare give a kiss.

            You are forcing your hetro ideology onto our kids like some kind of groomer pedophile.

              “Hetero ideology” You mean the ideology that allows us to continue to exist?

              Are you actually trying to compare two adults kissing in public, regardless of their orientation, to teaching 5 year olds boys that they can be girls if they want to and that biology takes a back seat to your feelings?
