Abstract
The current targeting of LGBTQ+ rights in political discourse combined with social media's vast range and increased visibility of the LGBTQ+ community has triggered a threat response in a population of America. Using Hurbert M. Blalock's racial threat hypothesis as a guide I will analyze how LGBT+ rights and visibility are seen as the most recent threat to American political life.
