There are no lesbians on /actuallesbians so that's a terrible example. Everyone who objected to TWAW was banned. But outside of that-- threats of violence. Lesbians have been beaten by trans identified males and their female Aunt Lydias. At least one lesbian couple was murdered. There's ZERO support from the so-called LGBT community for lesbians. You shut the fuck up, or they destroy your life: ostracize you, get you fired, potentially beat you, maybe even end your life.

Yep, all these issues. All the way back in the mid-2000s when the war over Michfest was raging, there were so many lesbians who got sent death threats and rape threats, who had their businesses destroyed, who got ostracised, who lost their jobs. Big silence from the GBT, no fucks given from most of the feminist organisations at the time. And it's basically been going on the same way since then.
