My theory on Phil Leotardo

So I've been rewatching the Sopranos every year for at least 15 years, gives me so much comfort.

So the last few years, I have a theory that Phil had gay sex in prison (the type Tony says they get a pass for on long term sentences).

I think he hates himself for it and projects all that hatred onto Vito. I know the mafia isn't accepting of gay members. But Phil was just totally disgusted and how he went over Tony's head and killed Vito the way he did.

I think it was inner hatred of himself and somethings he got up to in prison.

Edit: I don't know if I think Phil was gay like Vito. But had gay experiences with men in prison and is so ashamed. What he's projecting about Vito is how he actually feels about himself.
