'Weird kids' bullying 'weird kids' and queer conservative asskissers.

In all online and offline communities, fandoms, and generally any spaces where people co-exist with eachother mean and unsavoury behavior will take place. It's not exactly uncommon; statistically, it's very unlikely for you and me to never have said anything mean to anyone ever. That being said, people are always continuously changing and as such hopefully improving for the better, many unfortunately don't.

There's a certain behavior that I personally despise, as in, the kind of person that if they were not part of a certain group, they would NOT be tolerant or accepting of the group they are in. From my perspective, this appears in different extremes. 

A less extreme form of this that I want to mention is weird kids bullying weird kids. Ie. For example, people in fandom think they're better than others in fandom because they're not as 'obvious' or 'cringe' about the things they enjoy. Or another example, queer teenagers bullying other queer (most of the time) tweens for 'shoving their queerness in other people's faces' by wearing a pride flag as a cape or having their sexuality as a kandi bracelet. I feel like these two overlap. 

"LGB without the T"????? Why did this even exist? Or well does, there are definitely transphobes who are queer. I haven't seen the slogan for a while now, and yet every time that I remember that people like this actually exist I feel a deep embarrassment that they yk claim to be part of the community? Like bruh. 💀 Whose boots are you trying to lick? Whose ass are you trying to kiss? I fear that this is a lukewarm take, but I will attempt to put it into words either way. 

Genderqueer and Queer people like lesbian, gay, and bisexual etc. people have a deeply shared history. Many of the rights that we queer people have achieved through events like the stonewall riots were pionered by POC trans queer activists; a very important and well knowm example being Marsha P. Johnson. Generally speaking similar social norms and laws have affected the queer community as a whole. To seperate parts of a community that has never been seperate feels illogical to me. It does nothing but hurt your own and others wellbeing. 

Then again in a way that is the point? As in by excluding parts of your own comunity you try to appeal to another. Which never works because other communities, in the LGB-without the T case being conservatives. Or queer people pandering to conservatives and the right wing in general. Yay how fun, showing the leapards who will eat your face how 'different' and how 'good' you are. 

To be part of communities for me always has been to live as yourself authentically preferibly happily with others. Erm... anyways I wrote this in my notes app because I was really bored, have nothing to do right now, and got reminded of a tiktok that made kinda annoyed. Plz ignore any spelling mistakes if they come up >> plus this just happens to be really focused on the LGBTQ because I happen to be uber duper super gay. If you actually read this share something positive. Bring some joybait into the world and to the people you care about. That would be like, very awesome!!!! >>
