Maybe because all the queer kids and socialists were extremely closeted.

This must be the Gen Z high school experience. The most radical my high school ever got were social liberals who thought FDR was the best thing ever. Queer people were found almost exclusively in the drama or theater clubs.
Amazing how a little bit of social time with friends and neighbors can reveal the secret radical in each of us.
most of my high school became far-right liberals
You must have a very tight knit high school. I have no earthly idea how most of my class turned out.
I only knew one socialist kid and the two queer kids I knew where just racist gay white dudes.
i went to school in south florida and almost our entire baseball team was gay
at first it was like one of those homophobic jokes like, "if you are into sports play football and if you are gay play baseball" kinda thing youd say in the late 90s but in reality our baseball team was actually legit like 80% gay. they would all hang together and kiss and lay in each others laps and stroke their hair in the halls and in hindsight i was kind of envious because most straight kids werent enjoying this kind of intimacy on a daily basis so to the gay baseball kids who went to northeast high in oakland park i wanna say i hope yall are living your most fabulous life now
that's a fuckin movie plot right there
Reverse High School Musical
When the social club is full of socialists
(please laugh)
most social clubs around me turned to genocide apologia and pizza parties real fast
