In USA homosexual people are not protected and can be discriminated on a basis of a sexual orientation in many instances, and in general laws there more supportive of private companies, than abused users. It can be possible in Europe, but maximum what it can achieve is only ban Reddit in Europe and maybe some fines.

As you can see, there no "sexual orientation" in list: https://www.ftc.gov/site-information/no-fear-act/protections-against-discrimination

You seem to have missed the recent supreme court ruling. However, this lawsuit will still go nowhere, because reddit isn't refusing to allow gay people on the site; they're refusing to allow GC people to use the site, some of whom happen to be gay.

That is great news if it will holds true.

Reddit have banned lesbian subreddit which was "only for pussylovers" for "transphobia". Basically what reddit said is that just being lesbian - is being transphobic.
