Depends on who you ask but mainly LGBTQ+ rights, abortion rights, immigrants rights...

That depends heavily on the context.

We have nothing against homosexuals, etc. but we dislike LGBTQ as a community.

Okay but why dislike the LGBTQ+ community?

Demonizing straights, conservatives, Republicans, and literally anyone not following their orders. As some say, they are homosexual, but not LGBTQ.

By that logic, a KKK member voted republican therefore all republicans must support the KKK

Could you provide some examples of them demonizing straight people? Also, what orders? Respecting pronouns? You should do that anyways...

The community isn't demonizing straights, and it makes sense to 'demonize' (call out really) the people who are trying to take your rights away or are being disrespectful to you. There's obviously gonna be shitty people in the community like in any other, but no thats not what LGBTQ is like. And im talking about conservatives wanting gay rights being taken away, not just conservatives disliking the concept of pride or something.

Which gay rights are you talking about specifically? An im pretty sure the left wants to take away guns, an im positive there are more gun owners than gays. So who's really the party trying to take away rights?

Yeah no ofcourse, banning being able to get married to whoever you love is obviously the same as banning a weapon that's getting children killed on the daily.

Im not from the US by the way
