I honestly didn't make any connection with the left image and homosexuality.

Maybe a bit of femininity? Is that what connects it to being gay, on account of there existing gay men who are more feminine than average straight men?

    It is what connects to the gay stereotype. One of the oldest, well-recognized connotations in so-called western culture, where feminine features themselves serve as indicators of inferiority - that's why this kind of imagery has been used to mock gay men and symbolically strip them of their manhood.

    I see what you're saying - my first impression read was that the maga truck crowd wants to project themselves as masculine, and this is derogatory against them for portraying them in this feminine fashion.
