27. I Can Answer You

The power elites need to make the working class believe that they have actual power, so that said working class will vote for political/economic policies which are a detriment to their best economic interest.

Thus, they appeal to the population's homophobia. IOW, the homophobic working class believes that they're voting against Gay marriage where instead they're voting for more globalization, lower wages, no healthcare, etc.
