Young man's fundamentalist family finds out he's gay and uses emotional blackmail to push him to deny his feelings

Notice that the brother admits to demanding this young man explain why he would be flirting with boys online. After that comes all the silly rationalizations--early childhood experiences are now labeled "molestation", kids called him gay so he thought he was gay, he was tempted by internet porn and other boys, etc.--because this kid knows his family isn't going to just accept him at face value. He has to "change" and he has to explain how he "went wrong."

It's bad enough that they're not letting him tell his own story, but they're turning parts of his story into something pathological. In his father's and brother's eyes, his activity and interest in boys has to be explained. If he had been caught flirting with a girl online, would there have been a need to find some reason for it--some early experience with a precocious neighbor girl? No. And on top of the pathology, there is the suggestion that spooky, evil forces were taking hold of him when he engaged in these activities. It's an insane way of viewing normal human experience. And they're forcing this onto him. The brother admits to demanding he explain his interest in boys, and he made it clear that he wasn't going to accept any answer other than one involving this young man "going wrong" at some point. In the brother's and father's eyes, he can't just naturally have these feelings or have a desire to flirt with a boy. It can't be something as simple as that. He had to create a scenario in which he was tempted, became sick and diseased, and now he is delivered. And in an attempt to further please his family, he is pushing the same kind of formula onto other young people who are LGBT or questioning.

The way this boy's family ganged up on him, manipulated him, and basically forced him to create this bogus narative to explain something that they insist is evil and somehow not right is frightening. And there are people who will sit there and watch this and shake their head thinking that yes, yes, two little boys touching each other will let the gay demons in. It's crazy. This young man is given no space to simply be himself where he doesn't have to justify his every feeling and behavior. It's so scary. Who could live like that?

The father and the brother are the ones molesting this kid. They are molesting his mind.
