Quiting Reddit conservative communities because of transphoiba and other kinds of bigotry
Good afternoon everyone, I am kind of angry right now.
I have been a Muslim conservative for my entire life.however I have been LGBTQ+ supporting since I have matured (to be completely honest supporting such commuitnes was a part of maturing) the reason I am making this post is reveal hypocrisy.
I am not even going to talk about how horrible of place X became, it's like saying staring at the sun is bad.
However, Reddit has conservative communities too but since the 2024 elections, it became completely filled with bigotry. I don't want to point my finger at Christans, but I am just saying that I am seeing a pattern here. This was only one of the few red flags of the such communities (such as islamophobia),but this was the final straw for me.
If you have friends in these communities claiming to be an ally, please check their post history.
You may say, "oh why does it concern you, you are a conservative" I get that, but conservatism was never been just blatant bigotry. if I have a trans or gay child one day, they may face hate from these people. I have trans friends I have even dated a trans person before. These people are spewing hate to my beloved ones and I don't want be a part of such group.
Take care and stay safe, cheers.
P.s.:This was the largest trans community that allowed posts from allies (I may be wrong but this was the one I could find) therefore I made my post here.
