Rules:
- The mods are fallible; if you've been banned or had a post/comment removed, please appeal.
- Off-topic posts will be removed. If you don't know what "Leopards ate my Face" is, try reading this post.
- If the reason your post meets Rule 1 isn't in the source, you must add a source in the post body (not the comments) to explain this. If the reason is in the source but is tedious to find (e.g. in a lengthy video), you must add an explanation for where it is.
- Posts should use high-quality sources (for a rough idea, check out this list), and posts should retain the title (if one exists) from works like news articles, videos, etc. You may (but need not) edit your post if the source changes the title. Other types of posts should have a title which accurately, relatively neutrally describes their contents.
- For accessibility reasons, an image of text must either have alt text or a transcription in the post body.
- Reposts within 1 year or the Top 100 of all time are subject to removal. Within moderator discretion, this doesn't just include reposts of the exact same media but also includes e.g. a secondary source telling basically the exact same story as another that was already posted.
- This is not exclusively a US politics community. You're encouraged to post stories about anyone from any place in the world at any point in history as long as you meet the other rules.
- All Lemmy.World Terms of Service apply.

MODERATORS
coming right after
might sound silly, but they're being truthful. They are not standing by while T rights are legislated away, they actively support it.
Perchance this person would prefer it being LGB instead
"Drop the T" was always going to end up in everyone experiencing homophobia more viscerally.
might need a new sub for "selfAwareWolves" for a post like this.
Anyone who is LGB without the T can suck my LGBTQ+ butthole.
You're not an ally. You're just an asshole.
I've been settled in monogamy for ages now, so I don't know if it's still the case, but I distinctly remember the vibe in the late '90s and early '00s being LG vs BT. Like the "true gays" didn't want us making them look weird in front of the straights. Resulted in stuff like Gold Star Lesbians.
It hasn't gone away. I'm a cis male, pansexual, married to a Trans enby who's also pan. We're poly with relationships outside of our own marriage.
I assure you that LG vs BT still exists. I've had people accuse me of not being honest with my partner (They know both my gfs, and I know both their gf and bf), or that I'm not actually pan because I'm only with "girls" (My partner is AFAB but enby (They/Them, working on getting top surgery), and my gfs are a cis woman and a trans woman (let that part sink in)).
So because we don't fit the standard traditional relationship roles, we're somehow "doing it wrong".
