LGBTQ+ rights are under attack across the world.

This a Community dedicated to the discussion of how to protect, advocate for, and restore LGBTQ rights!

With the rampant increase of Anti LGBTQ+ hate crimes, speech and laws internationally, the LGBTQ community globally no longer feels safe.

We refuse to stand by while injustice against our community reigns.

Here we will organize, and discuss ways to make our voices heard!

Community Rules:

  1. No Hate Speech

No Hate Speech allowed whatsoever. This is a O tolerance policy. This goes for any form of hate and/or bigotry regarding race, religion, or LGBTQ+ identities.

While we will have discussions on political issues dealing with hate and bigotry AGAINST the LGBTQ+ community, please keep your comments respectful of ail parties.

Be better than how your enemies treat you.


  1. Respect the trans community

Respect the people who belong here. If you're confused what that means, here's a minor primer:

No asking to date trans people or otherwise meet up with them. No treating being transgender as a mental illness or as being lesser in any way. No arguing with trans people about their identity. No arguing with trans people about their vulnerabilities, including anything related to sports, laws, etc. This includes anything else that the mod team deems disrespectful.


  1. Stay on topic!

Posts should be related to the defense, advocacy, and restoration of LGBTQ+ rights.

This Community is for news regarding, as well as the discussion of, anti LGBTQ+ laws, hate crimes, and propaganda.


  1. Bunnies are above the law

This isn't a rule but it shows you're paying attention to the rules. good for you!

Mikie Sherrill is extremely pro-LGBT. She votes, she sponsors legislation, she conducts town halls at LGBT support centers. She is listening to us and including us.

The NJ governor appoints the NJ Attorney General. If you want NJ Civil Liberties, consumer protections, and legal support to be protected and enforced for the next 4 years, you MUST vote for Sherrill for governor. Get all of your friend and family to vote also!

And even if you don't believe that LGBT rights and protections effect you and your family and friends, know that enshrining transgender rights ensures access to healthcare privacy for all. Enshrining marriage equality protects all who are married, even if you are straight. Protecting gender expression protects women's rights to wear pants and cut their hair, and protects men from being discriminated against for hugging your homies. The NJ AG is responsible for enforcing these protections, and the governor appoints the AG.

Agreed on both counts

And with about a 15% gap, too. It was a decisive win.
