OK. But if they ain't sick, then telling them they are is an act of aversion, and therefore a phobia.

Phobia is a fear. Another far left abuse of words. Acknowledging illness is not a fear. An I’ll person’s refusal to admit sickness does not negate their problem.

You are not correct. It has meant an aversion long before it was colloquially used for fears.

The scientific community has for hundreds of years called oil to be "hydrophobic" because it does not mix with water; are you now going to have to expand your conspiracy theory to say that 17th Century scientists were trying to make us think oil is afraid of water?

Or were you just wrong?

So what is wrong with having an aversion to something you do not believe in?

If you think there's nothing wrong with homophobia then say it loud and proud, you're homophobic.

But just be honest about it. Don't try to cover it up with some nonsense argument about semantics that isn't even linguistically correct.
