As others were saying, alongside with the whole attitude of some wanting to be "accepting" of those "non accepted" by big evil "het-cis" society. Also, excuse me for being not so smart, but which acronym is a slur?

Queer was used as a slur quite a lot. It was only till the late 90s/ early 2000s really that it stopped being seen as a slur by society. Many people still do consider it to be however

OH, shit, I forgot about that one. I thought they made a brand new acronym. Yeah, I can see why some would still dislike it. Probably even more, which I wouldn't be surprise, due to the TQ+ using it to mean whatever they're trying to identify it with now.
