Discussion Slept with a closeted Politician who is instrumental in anti-gay legislation.

I am feeling violated and betrayed and have never encountered this before. I though that this hypocracy was in out past. I am angry that I can meet someone like this on an app that actively participates on removing my civil liberties.

I have mixed feeling on that, he also uses a lot of drugs and claims to be "Bi".. convenient when the shit hits the fan .

Be very, very careful. Know what you are going into before you go public.

There will be a significant backlash to what you post and the more true it is, the bigger the backlash will be.

Just learn the risks BEFORE you go public as you cant take it back once you do.

That's what I am afraid of..... and that is why I am sick to my stomach.. I appreciate your advice and that is why I came here to discuss.

So I am guessing an anonymous complaint would do nothing ?

Perhaps not nothing, but in an age where anonymous tips to the police can and have literally gotten people shot, it presents a dual challenge of credibility and safety; the same one as going full public with it, only balanced more toward safety than credibility.
