Gay Memes*

My social circle, and the wider group of people I am interested in online, is selected at least partially for intelligence, tolerance, and general not-being-a-dick-ness. I don't need to post anything about my attitude to gay rights, or any other number of issues, and not doing so doesn't mean I "don't care" about them - it just means that in the circles I choose to move in, there's no point to be made.

* did you see what I did there? ;)

Update; some of the better variations I've seen:

Indeed. It's not so much that there are more "important" issues as it's easier to just be able to take that sort of thing as a given. And then arguing about other things. Of course (and sadly) you need the right readership/social circle to be able to do that.
