shove "The Signaling Hazard Objection" out the door

What if publishing a post from my buffer makes me feel less gross?

 A common [far-right objection to tolerance of male homosexuality](https://blog.reaction.la/culture/gay-needs-to-be-suppressed/) is that it constitutes a "signaling hazard": if Society legitimizes the gays rather than oppressing them, that interferes with normal men expressing friendly affection for each other without being seen as potentially gay, which is bad for the fabric of Society, which depends on strong bonds between men who trust each other. (Presumably, latent homosexual tendencies would still exist in some men even if forbidden, but gestures of affection between men wouldn't be seen as potentially escalating to homosexual relations, if homosexual relations were considered unthinkable and to be discouraged, with violence if necessary.)
