Because they don't share your opinion, they're obviously brainwashed?

I haven't used it to describe anybody, and I never would, obviously. I merely acknowledged its existence.
You said people with no prejudice toward gay people wouldn't use it in "any context", so it having to be used in the context of describing someone doesn't matter.

Nope. You can't. Sorry to burst your bubble. There is no way of using it (against someone) in a non-homophobic way
You are arguing against something I haven't said. I said you can use it without being homophobic, as in, a non homophobic person could use that word and they wouldn't suddenly be a homophobe just because they have used that word.

Obviously if you use a homophobic slur intended as a homophobic slur then it's use is homophobic but that's not what I'm saying.

Belittling a man by implying they suck another man's balls is not homophobic to you?
Whether it is or it isn't, that's not what I'm arguing.
