Fandom Problem #15,225:

A lot of people in modern fandom are weirdly hostile towards straight people and this usually comes from people who are the most vocal about tolerance, inclusion, and acceptance.

i wish i was privileged enough the bigotry i faced due to my sexuality was only contained to online weirdos, but please go on about how straight people are so badly treated by homos and bis online. totally not tone deaf of a heterosexual to complain about homosexuals and bisexuals being weird online. the discomfort you face from chronically online homosexuals and bisexuals doesn't even begin to compare to genuine prejudice and oppression we face in real life and online, and that's a privilege jackass.

You being a minority isn't a get-out-of-jail-free card for acting like rando straight people you meet online are the scum of the earth.

Are you saying I can shit on gay and bi people because I get way less representation and am even more oppressed than they are (ace)? Sweet! (This was sarcasm. I am being sarcastic. "I'm more oppressed than you" is not a great reason to throw consideration out the window, I hate to say it.)

If you treat straight people like shit simply for existing, get rightfully criticized for it, then go "but queer people have had it worse, quit complaining", like your shitty actions as an individual, towards individuals, that you have complete control over, are somehow off the hook because queer people in general are systematically oppressed, you're a shitty person. I said what I did.
