On Twitter, #StoptheHate means respect LGBTs (and pop stars)

Today’s Twitter campaign in support of LGBT activists’ lawsuit against evangelist Scott Lively is under way.  Below are some of the campaign’s early tweets, which use the hashtag #stopthehate.

One confusion has developed, however: Pop culture fans are using the same hashtag in other contexts, especially in discussions of the apparent breakup of the “Haylor” relationship between singers Taylor Swift and One Direction heart-throb Harry Styles.
