If you identify as LGBT, I truly feel you have a very real duty to let all the acephobes and islamophobes and transphobes and interphobes and ableists and racists and other shitlords in your LGBT community know that they are NOT WELCOME.
Like, seriously. for example: the asexual community on Tumblr is dealing with such a huge onslaught of acephobes right now. Tumblr blogs about asexuality suffer pretty much constant attacks, from anon hate to whisper campaigns to doxing. And most of the acephobes that do this identify as LGBT.
There is a group of LGBT people out there who believe they need to ‘protect’ LGBT spaces by violently attacking vulnerable communities. Now those people don’t care if aces hate them, but they might care if they know LGBT people hate them too. So if you are LGBT and you are NOT a violent acephobe, what have you done to let these shitlords know that their behaviour is not welcome?
Cool now you’re only not bad if you never call yourself LGBT, only q*eer.
I have no idea where in my post you read anything like that? I never even talked about the word queer in this post?
Just to be clear: If you identify as queer, I also strongly feel you have a very real duty to let all the acephobes and islamophobes and transphobes and interphobes and ableists and racists and other shitlords in your LGBT/queer community know that they are NOT WELCOME.
This post was never about the word LGBT or the word queer, it was about the responsibility of people in those spaces to keep their space free of acephobic, islamophobic, transphobic, interphobic, ableist, racist shitlords.
