Pitting acceptable poll responses against unacceptable ones.

It's not just homophobia -- I agree with NorthernSpy that people calling christians "dogshit" whether because of homophobia in the black church or because they're non-christian or whatever -- tends to get a free pass on DU to an uncomfortable degree. I don't know what it's like to be hated but I know what it's like to be grudgingly tolerated -- both as a lefty and as a religious person -- while others get away with flames and disgusting poll questions (I could dig up a few).
