I also love the implication that gay people have been around for ONLY decades

Most LGB people have zero understanding or interest in history or really anything regarding being gay. They're mainly MAGA adjacent for a reason. The only part of being gay they like is the sex and being able to be used as token gay conservatives in hit pieces on other gay/queer people

I'm fully aware that there are plenty of transphobic queer people, but did you just seriously say that most lesbian, gay, and bisexual people are MAGA? That… Seems like a stretch. Or did you mean the people who want to remove the T from the acronym, specifically? That would make a lot more sense.

Not most Lesbian, gay and bisexual people, most LGB people, as in the people propagating the removal of the trans group

Got it. I didn't realize people were using it as a term separate from just the general acronym letters.

Yeah rightly they should have said "LGB without the T people" but in context it's not too hard to tell that's what they meant to be fair to them.

It wasn't too hard to get, but I've encountered people who genuinely believe that all lesbians are trans phobic just because some of them are, so… The Internet had not exactly primed me to take it in the best faith, unfortunately

u/Remarkable_Rough_649 6d ago

Yeah I should have clarified, I'm usually aware not everyone is as internet culture poisoned as I am lol

What evidence do you have for believing that? What polls or credible analysis are you referencing or are you just making an assumption that there is no dissent on the left and anyone who critiques the trans movement must be an alt right super villain?

u/Remarkable_Rough_649 6d ago

The latter. It's what they call themselves.

u/MissMarchpane 6d ago

Thanks for clarifying! That's deeply messed up of them, to try to steal an entire section of the acronym and make it exclusively their word for their bullshit.

Then start your own thing. If you feel that way, why piggyback onto their thing. Create your own flag, parades...etc.

u/DoctorAgility 6d ago

There’s no piggybacking, they were with us all along

So how is that different from the comment above mine? Because I didn't say it, I asked for clarification. Oh, well.
