And I suppose those who harm gay people by bullying them and publicly shaming them deserve everything that's coming to them, especially if they're doing from a hypocritical and misguided delusion of righteousness...
Again missing the point. It isn't a challenge to defend oneself, it's an invitation to reflect. Less talking, more thinking.
These lists aren't about homosexuality (or communism or adulterers or whatever), it's about attacking ideological and political opposition. The list makers never include "transgressions" of people aligned with them on their lists. If they can bully and intimidate their opponents about their sexuality they'll do that, if not they'll find something else. That's how these things work.
A gay person isn't a hypocrite for being gay, a gay person condemning and harming other gay people is a hypocrite.
