I tried to ask a another youtuber Living Anachronism who has worked with Shadiversity if he knew about Shad's homophobic content & the mod delete my question, told me asking about that was against the no drama rule, that it wasn't homophobic & proceeded to try to gaslight me with pseudo-intellectual bullshit.

I'm tired of bringing thing up in non queer spaces only to be told that's it not actually homophobic.

The original video I referred to:https://youtu.be/GiyMDN9j2OU?si=bDqnc1pCG8t3HASp

I'm not sure why one would need to be LGBT to point out homophobia? I'm not gay, half my parents are, I'll call it out whenever I see it.

This is more about straight people who tell qweer people calling out homophobia that it's not homophobia & downplaying their experience.

Well then why not say that then? I could follow the rest of the screenshot conversation but that part confused me. Anyone should be able to call out homophobia and gatekeeping the right to such critique hardly benefits any oppressed groups. And I think we probably agree on that.

Your statement likely made more sense in context, but that's missing in the screenshot. Generalizations like this are wrong and easy enough to avoid.
