resurrexia@kbin.socialtoAsk Lemmy@lemmy.world•Is using terms like 2SLGBTQQIA+ insensitive?

1 year agoI personally like to use MOGAI as an umbrella term - Marginalized Orientations, Gender Alignments, and Intersex - but it is not mainstream at all.
These days I use LGBTQ+ instead.
I wouldn’t want to be another statistic that boosts their user count that they can brag about. And if there are ads, I don’t want to be contributing monetarily to them and their ideals.
I feel this applies to “smaller” platforms like lemmy more - where a very defined group is running the show. Or massive ones with certain figureheads who talk too much shit, like where most of us came from.
In essence, it’s a matter of principles.
