There is already an r/lgdroptheb. Funnily enough, reddit never banned it for "promoting hate" like a certain other sub.. I wonder why? 🤔

I think those "drop the G" "Drop the L" "Drop the B" are nothing more than attempts by T to cause conflict and infighting inside the LGB community to drive the attention away from them.

Like, I don't even understand the point in dropping the L or B, when did bisexuals ever start spouting dangerous pseudo-science nonsense to enter opposite-sex spaces? When did they start advocating for child transition? When did they start pretending to be something they are not and force everybody to see them like that?

There might be a minor tension between L, G, and B but it will never be legitimate, serious or as extreme as dropping the T because this time, not only is LGB fighting against them but straight women too.

100%. They're running this campaign right now on ovarit, actually.

Wait, really? Curious, do you have any links to examples?

I know we had a conversation a while back about bad agents' tactics used to subvert online forums. Sounds like an example of that?

From what I understand, they are doing that because they are mad about "bihet women" in lesbian spaces, and they generally blame the B for the current situation with the T. They think most bi people are faking it for attention.

It could be a TRA psyop -- I've seen a few TRAs brag about pilfering Ovarit codes -- but I doubt it.

"bihet women"

This phrase is a massive red flag. Anytime I've seen someone use it unironically, they've turned out to be deeply misogynistic and/or biphobic.

Yeah, I could see it going either way. A lot of radical feminists are biphobic. (And homophobic.) And that's not just from TRAs making them look bad; Julie Bindel and other radfem leaders have been shitting on bisexual women for decades.

edit: Also thanks for the example link!
