A safe space for GSRM (Gender, Sexual, and Romantic Minority) folk to discuss their lives, issues, interests, and passions. LGBT is still a popular term used to discuss gender and sexual minorities, but all GSRM are welcome beyond lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender people who consent to participate in a safe space

Are you concerned about the trends of anti-trans incitement to violence? (lemmy.world)

There was a growing pattern of Influential conservatives blaming trans people for mass shootings. This trend seems to be as recent as August 28th or 2 weeks ago.

With charlie kirk's death, and people speculating he was killed by a trans person, it seems like that's going to further incite and escalate things. For example, Jesse Waters eluded that trans shooters were attacking conservatives, especially Trump & Charlie, effectively inciting violence to LGBTQ people.

In my personal opinon, I'd say avoid LGBT centers, parades, crowds. Staying home is a safe option, avoid being openly queer in public areas. That's my two cents. It's not a safe time right now.

As an adult, I stopped caring about childish things like acting grown up. Also as an adult, we care for the vulnerable, and that means no war zones. War is not safe for children. Children get into fights. Adults break them up.
