#LGBT is nothing more than a radical political activist group. It didn't start off that way, but that's what it is now. The fact that so many of its "members" fit into the "Trender" category proves that.
@realcaseyrollins Well, I'm a transwoman and obviously not left at all (I'm a Libertarian, and damn serious about it). I'm not saying you can't be LGBT and something other than left, I'm saying the community utterly rejects and attacks people who are. Obviously gay, bi, trans people often end up on the rightwing end of the political spectrum because its a natural thing that happens, ie, not merely politics (except Trenders, obviously, who are 100% politics).
Which has generally been my suspicion in the past regarding non-binary, I had never seen any that weren't on the radical left "smash the binary" side. Although it seems a few people (such as @galena) and a few others on reddit (noteworthy, however -- most non-binaries get chased and harassed out of subs like /r/rightwinglgbt whatever their politics. So.. we can't pretend that the extreme on the other end isn't shitbirds either -- they definitely are! I'd argue this is a difference between Libertarians vs Conservatives, but there is more to Conservatives than what lefties think so thats a whole different topic) have shown up and I adjusted my beliefs on the topic.
Thats my point is about LGBT being a political activism group, and not a group about representing peoples interests -- it represents purely political interests. That's why you see them knowingly lying (and yes its knowingly, the stats have been out forever and they keep repeating it -- not to mentioning inventing the false statistics in the first place) about transgender murder rates, etc.
Actually this went on long enough I lost track of where I am. But anyway, I'm commenting that the mainstream LGBT community is complete rubbish, and is probably a big central crunchy center to Canceldon as a whole being a thing.
