I'm honestly hesitant to say you should do it at all, Rule Of Cautious Editing Judgment and such...
Feels like it might invite more trouble than it's worth.

It’s less a conspiracy theory than simple homophobia excuses. If it were a conspiracy theory it would be fine to add
OH MY GOD; MY PARENTS ARE GARDENIIIIINNNNGGGGG!!!!!
I feel a conspiracy theory needs to be more concrete. "The gays are recruiting our kids" is too vague, because it doesn't imply a massive organized effort. Now, if the claim was that "the globalist/the reptilians/some other thing people say because "the Jews" has become socially unacceptable" are doing it to "destroy society" or whatever, that would qualify.

I remember a similar discussion on Holocaust denial when the Robert Carlyle film The Rise of Evil would be edited by Nazis so that red roses sprout from the title, Hitler rides in on a white horse and saves the world from the Jews, all his atrocities are removed. As serious as this is it was decided we did not want to give the Nazis any air time, even if it is condemnation.
File the claim that homosexuals are pedophiles under the same category? The voices behind the idea are Youtubers who watch videos all day, make videos all day, that amount to, "Heteronormative Crusaders are awesome, The Bible gets it wrong judgment is ours not God's and we are also the jury and executioner" so they might not be the most credible source.

One that came out during the fifties and is being repeated today in regards to support for LGBT Is is that it is an illness and furthermore their supporters, as delicately as I can put this, are grooming children to be gay.
Now I certainly do not buy into this idea at all and the few that try and provide evidence show very tenuous causal links at best, the idea of violent media causing mass shootings has far more credibility (none.) However it is a very serious claim to make therefore I think it would be important enough after asking for advice on how best to include the example, if such an example could be written sensitively.
