I don't personally think all of these people are bad. A great chunk of these gatekeepers are easily impressionable kids who are still deep in cringe culture. I'm merely saying this is a sign of potential reactionary beliefs they're holding. How you would solve this (talk further, confront, let it go...) is your choice.

They could be potential allies. I'm not saying people do this with full recognition of how bad it is. I'm saying there is a good chance they are holding reactionary beliefs. How you treat or feel about it is up to you.

The fuckers who say "queer is a slur" will also say they support non-binary people but the moment people identify with a specific MOGAI identity they'll jump on them like wolves. They want to replace the gender binary with a gender trinary. You're allowed to identify as "non-binary" but nothing further than that.

@Socks i really really like that visual of tending our own gardens while minimizing harm, thank u 💕💕

@pbandkate speaking as a person who also identifies as queer, iirc “gay” and “lesbian” had been slurs before as well, before being reclaimed by the community. You should of course do your best to minimize the trauma you inflict on others, but when it comes to your identity and how you navigate through the world, I feel like we each ought to tend our own garden.

@pbandkate Kate you're the best and this isn't my wheelhouse at all but I feel like you should be able to identify in whatever way makes you most comfortable

"queer is a slur" is almost always a sign of gatekeeping. Ask them how they feel about aspec or MOGAI peeps in the community and they'll show their true colors.

@pbandkate I kind of hate this discourse as someone who has been hearing it for years and years. I will not give up queer; there is no substitute for me. nothing else fits. nothing else so perfectly encapsulates non-hetero, non-cis, non-normative identity in one word. nothing! the best I can do is agree to avoid using it around company that objects to it but they will not stop me from using it as an identifier for myself because it is such a huge part of "me" by this point.

This is an example of one their often silencing tactics

That doesn't mean others should use it for themselves. Again, "queer is a slur" is a red flag of a potential gatekeeper.
