I was permanently banned from Reddit for saying something about Robin Hobb's series Assassin Apprentice that it was gay and had a non-binary character, proceeding to say I'd never finish it because of that.
Or I've seen countless people get banned from Reddit saying to keep the kids out of the lgbt stuff.
I remember saying before I got banned that I didn't really agree with pride, mainly because international men's day is also in June and ever since pride was a thing, that's been glossed over. So I was upset about it and I remember I got a lot of hateful comments for even bringing it up.
If that was meant to exonerate you, it mostly just made you sound pretty bad. Refusing to finish one of the most remarkable fantasy series since The Lord of the Rings because you can't tolerate the existence of gay or nonbinary people isn't normal behavior. I genuinely hope that you try to work on yourself and sort out this simmering hatred instead of getting upset about humans who are different from you existing.
