I really wish articles and posts like this would stop using the term "LGBTQ+" to refer to "TQ+". These attacks are SOLELY on TQ+ people, and it would really help LGB people to not be grouped with them. Those who hate the TQ+ will see LGB grouped with it and start attacking them too.
I don't give a damn about solidarity or allyship when it comes to this. This issue has gone beyond what being transgender really is. And conservatives have reacted even more extremely than they should be. There are clearly problems on both sides and no one seems to occupy the rational middle, and it's going to create a disaster. But LGB people have NOTHING to do with it.
Did y’all forget about them coming after drag queens, who usually are gay men? Or the fact their forcing teachers into the closet? Or making students to send letters of notice if they’re gay and go on a field trip? This ain’t just a TQ+ thing. Republicans don’t slice and dice that finely.
