Now this has to be an offensive derogatory term and not some cute nickname.

He says it in the first few seconds of the video.

Bi here. Dont care. I can take a joke.

Didnt watch the video though. If he was using it in like a angry rant kinda way them that different. Either I find callimg it alphabet people slightly funny cause it did seem like they kept adding more and more letters for awhile. What happened to that?

not watching the video but it's obvious from the title of the video that this youtuber is one of those "adding gay people to my media is forcing it down my throat" types

Talking about video games? it's ok to just disagree with each other on the internet. No point getting hostile or snide about it

I didn't watch the video either and I don't care about the views of whoever made it, that still didn't answer my question. Who is TC to say what is or what isn't offensive?

I didnt watch the video and i might be in the wrong here but I don't see it as a derogatory term. If anything it rolls off the tongue easier than saying 'LGBQT'.

I guess its how you say it tonewise that can make it insulting though.

This. Why are we supposed to care what this one random Youtuber thinks? Bass_X0, if you think it's offensive, report it on Youtube.

Yeah, same. Im sure its been used for at least a few years.

It did seem to make sense when the abbreviations kept extending over the years, but then they added a plus eventually. I dont know if it was or is offensive to most, but definitely things are offensive to at least a few people at all times.

I've wondered just how many letters the most progressive would actually say out as letters keep getting added. And more will be added, as reducing someone's identity to a plus sign just ain't gonna cut it.

I was always fine with the idea of it just being called QC or queer community. But seeing that they added it to the end of lgbtq I'm guessing queer no longer means what I once thought

OP, do you normally subscribe to this youtuber? Or did you just actively seek out a strawman from an outgroup and then link that shit here so we can have a circlejerk about how much we hate them?

I always thought that LGBTQ was too long of an acronym and should've been shortened.

Why not just call it, "The Alliance"?

At 4:15 he lampoons the letters acclimated by the LGBT community and finishes it with the Sonic level select code

Probably context. Having not watched a lick of MHA, is the only gay character also bad? Disney did the same thing in a lot of the 90's; queer-coded villains!

I think he originated it, but that was a joke that didn't really seem to be mean spirited.

I've definitely seen people use it in a more derogatory way though. All about context imo.
