Its whatever if someone homophobic says this, but in the recent years i started seeing LGBT people supporting this rhetoric which i find rather strange, because this creates an excuse of hate for the homophobes.
They read this and think: "oh, that's why you are gay, its all because of your environment" and then say that we, or our education/societies or whatever are at fault for our sexuality, none of which have an impact on this innate element.
This makes them (especially those homophobes in non-Western countries) think that people who grow up in LGBT accepting societies and learn about LGBT in school are more likely to "become" gay, and thus they start believing in a nonexistent "LGBT 'propaganda', which causes people to 'become' gay", and then those in power in those countries create discriminatory laws which prohibit any content or education about gay people for kids (gay propaganda laws), which makes LGBT youth struggle even more.
So they believe that "degenerate woke West" is spreading this "ideology" to "indoctrinate children" or whatever and think that society and mass media is the reason why people are gay, which is wrong because in the West with all the LGBT environment possible still only 5-10% are LGBT, the same amount as in any (including Muslim) countries. And, guess what, most people in the world grow up in homophobic societies or without any knowledge of gay people existing, and still end up being gay.
None of this would happen if we all agreed that we are born this way, no one would make these stupid theories and laws
