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.

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!

"Project 2026" has just been unveiled by the Heritage Foundation, promising yet again to overturn Obergefell. Of course, this is no surprise to anyone.

I'm thinking that soon - either now, or in the event an overturn is confirmed -, someone in our community should make a time capsule of memorabilia related to same-sex marriages in the US, and seal it up once the non-recognition law becomes official/enforced, only unlocking it once same-sex marriage becomes legal again in all 50 states (or whatever is left of them).

Items in the time capsule could be photos, love stories, or similar from same-sex couples, and could be focused on the specific states where the RFMA won't permit new marriages to happen anymore (e.g., a photo of Pete Buttigieg and his husband for Indiana). If the legal knock-downs continue, more items could be added to the capsule as non-recognition becomes the law in more states.

The time capsule would be accompanied by a website detailing all of its contents. I would recommend it be stored in either NYC or San Francisco.

Although I realize this isn't a progressive or defensive action in itself, I believe making a time capsule would serve an important symbolic purpose, serving as a reminder of what we once had and making it clear that our rights are not thrown away - they are merely locked behind a closed door.

Woah, woah, woah. There are plenty of innocent people living in Washington DC, there's no need for a nuclear weapon. The fallout could kill hundreds of thousands! We can get by just fine by properly sizing a conventional weapon that will just destroy the White House and everyone in it.
