Homophobia is not solely a phobia limited to conservatives.

Never said it was. It is foundational to social conservatism, however.

It has more to do with fear and religion than political leanings.

Not so. There are plenty of secular people who have socially conservative leanings when it comes to homosexuality. I.e., homophobia. Far left totalitarian/authoritarian regimes and old left ideologues who still harbor the idea it’s “bourgeois decadence” are good examples. Many on the left in the USA suddenly get quite socially conservative when it comes to homosexuality. Ask me how I know.
