There is a lot of hate, but I was also thinking of this. It does surprise me that the anti-lgbt movement has become so widespread. Like, what did they ever do to be hated that much? Loving the wrong person?

People hate a lot of things. People hate ugly people, or fat people, or people who don’t recycle. They hate pretty people for having it too easy, or people who play politics to get ahead. They hate marketing people.
Hate is a word that is being used for “dislike” these days, which makes conversations confusing.
thats funny, id put taking someones rights away or even actively endorsing, threatening or committing violence against someone pretty firmly under the ‘hate’ branch and that kind of behaviours coming from more than ‘very few’ people
Lemmy allows people to see who downvoted things, some apps let you tag users so you can recognize them in the wild. For instance, you could look at who downvoted this and then tag them all as “Fucking Scum”.
