There were no words, "homosexual" or otherwise, on the cake.

He refused to do anything for a gay couple. Buying off the shelf wouldn't be for a gay couple, just purchased by one, but something custom would be for them.

Such hollow, fragile beliefs. Can't recall Jesus not helping someone because they were gay.

Also, wtf makes words homosexual?

What are the "homosexual words" that they wanted on the cake? The article you linked makes no mention of this.

Texas, these are the same nitwits that think it's ok for a bakery to refuse to bake a wedding cake for homosexuals.

They only refused to write the homosexual words on the cake. The even offered another cake but the clients refused it. But that doesn't make good headlines. Your welcome to look it up if you can find a non propaganda version of it.

Edit : Found an non bias article about it from the court case.

"He was willing for his bakery to sell an already prepared cake for the couple, but not to make one for them."

Bans don't work for some reason?

In the lawsuit, Twitch insists it took "swift action" against the defendants by suspending and eventually permanently banning their accounts. However, both continually evaded bans by creating new, alternate Twitch accounts "and continually altering their self-described 'hate raid code' to avoid detection and suspension". If they are not stopped, says Twitch, "they will continued to harass and disrupt" the community.

You have to try pretty hard to get banned, like out and out racism or incitement to violence.

Sadly, many conservatives appear to define those things as core conservatism.
Not outright, but they defend any person banned for those reasons, plus harassment, as being "banned for being conservative."

Yet they complain when other people point out their racism, their sexism, and so on. They define it as part of their ideology yet they complain when it's pointed out.

That Texas law will probably get shut down on 1st Amendment grounds, but who knows. It doesn't really matter much because no one gets banned from Twitter for promoting small government or Randroid propaganda, or other similar conservative viewpoints.

DON’T YOU UNDERSTAND THIS IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN WOMENS HEALTH, VOTING RIGHTS, RELIABLE GRID. gosh
