One kind of post I absolutely detest on this site(mostly because I've seen one too many and they've never sat right) are those posts praising straight cis people that are only accidentally homophobic because of ignorance but that aren't actually homophobic but very "love who you love"

#and that always compare being gay/bi/nonbinary/trans to the stupidest shit #oh you're like this hyper specific kind of a duck oh you are like this wine oh you are like the fuck I know #like sure people like that are better than homophobes but are you kidding me we should Praise them?#they're not children learning how to write #they're part of the problem because casual homophobia actually does a lot of damage #and they insult us same as everyone else but you have to be very careful correcting them because They Didn't Mean To #and they get offended immediately #sure let's not attack them first and foremost and let's try to bring them more to our side but praising them #is too fucking much #these posts drive me up the wall #they were barely fine when I was a teen fresh of realising I wasn't straight but now #and the people posting them are so honest #OH and when they're like 'and these people are even better that queer people that are assholes and have a shitty personality '#like babe you're delulu you're a goddamn idiot #sorry but I don't like thanking people for acknowledging my right to exist lmao I thought that was the bare fucking minimum #tbd
