I think it's clear why that's being objected to. Most queer people just want to live their lives without being harassed for who they are. If that wasn't what you meant, then you used the wrong word.

That the media shouldn't focus so negatively on marginalized social groups? Work on your phrasing then, because otherwise you come across negatively TOWARDS the marginalized groups. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [+] systemglitch@lemmy.world -11 points 1 day ago What I said was succinctly accurate to someone not trying to force representations I never brought up.
