No Hate Speech allowed whatsoever. This is a O tolerance policy. This goes for any form of hate and/or bigotry regarding race, religion, or LGBTQ+ identities.
While we will have discussions on political issues dealing with hate and bigotry AGAINST the LGBTQ+ community, please keep your comments respectful of ail parties.
Be better than how your enemies treat you.
- Respect the trans community
Respect the people who belong here. If you're confused what that means, here's a minor primer:
No asking to date trans people or otherwise meet up with them. No treating being transgender as a mental illness or as being lesser in any way. No arguing with trans people about their identity. No arguing with trans people about their vulnerabilities, including anything related to sports, laws, etc. This includes anything else that the mod team deems disrespectful.
- Stay on topic!
Posts should be related to the defense, advocacy, and restoration of LGBTQ+ rights.
This Community is for news regarding, as well as the discussion of, anti LGBTQ+ laws, hate crimes, and propaganda.
- Bunnies are above the law
This isn't a rule but it shows you're paying attention to the rules. good for you!

MODERATORS
This and Mamdani in the same night is incredible. Congrats NYC and VA!
It's even better in Virginia. Virginia's state legislature increased it's position in the House of Delegates to 61 out of 100 confirmed seats. They originally had 51. In their other chamber, they still have a small margin 21-19, but those seats are up for election in 2027.
Lt. Governor & Attorney General went to Democrats by pretty large margins, as well.
New Jersey elections went towards Democrats.
Pennsylvania Supreme Court, which is Democrat majority, was voted to stay in place.
Maine rejected voting restrictions.
Overall, Democrats had sweeping victories throughout the Eastern Seaboard.
And prop 50 in CA!
Don't forget about Jay Jones
