Imagine writing a post that says "man, i hate being called lgbt and not queer" then having someone reply "I dont call myself queer because I got abused alongside the use of that name which is also literally a fucking slur that is still used as the aforementioned slur" only to reply with "its ok because if someone tells me not to call them queer personally then i won't but I will call the community as a whole, you included, queer". And not seeing that you've written something really fucking backhanded.

Funniky enough I wouldn't hate being called queer if it felt worth it, or if I was like anyone that calls themself queer in the slightest. This group is the one that said "you can't say these words because they're bad" and having everyone go along with it and then immediately go "this word isn't actually bad now, sorry girlies." I'd give less of a shit if the word queer in its current use wasn't a synonym for cunt to me.

#or a synonym for 'easy to market to' or 'punter' or 'gullible' or 'eyesore'#and then immediately follow it up with the fact that yous are all people that tried desperately to make a statement and strive for-#-individualism and then fall at the last fucking hurdle and end up in this neat little group where you are the same as everyone else.#and you end up there because its safe and its cozy #surprise bitch. being lgbt isnt nice and cosy. people should feel safe but they shouldn't fall into a fucked little hivemind where they-#-just disappear into the crowd despite working tirelessly to be quirky in whatever way #anyway. bed time I think #i clearly went fucking off it right here #not that I'm wrong or anything #lgbt #lgbt discourse #queer #queer discourse #queer is a slur #queer is a slur not that I care #not that I would have cared had it not been for the circumstance we are currently in
