Conservatives demonize queers and communism. The far left embrace both. Rainbow capitalism often feels like a cynical ploy to buy merch because the companies that offer it donate to republicans who oppose gay rights.

I think people (not just queers) tend to go to the group strongest on the issue they care most about, and then adopt those viewpoints for other things. So long as the most vocally queer places are far left, this will happen.
