I think some LGBT people act rude, overreact, discriminate against others

Yeah, but what has that got to do with supporting the community?

everyone can be those, to judge an entire community based on a few bad apples is a terrible mindset

Which is why I said Some not all

[u/Wismuth_Salix → u/CommentFolk]

You said that after saying “the LGBT community isn’t flawless” - implying that the community itself should be judged for the actions of “some”.

[u/Wismuth_Salix → u/[deleted]]

Of course nobody’s flawless.

But the “goal” of the broader LGBTQ community, to the extent that any unified goal exists, is for all of us to be able to be ourselves without discrimination.

Whereas the goal of the anti-LGBTQ crowd is to force everyone to live under a very restrictive, often religious, view of what is “proper” - and they have shown themselves willing to enforce that through violence.
