(5,815 posts)Back when LGBTers were protesting various actions of President Obama, there was this guy who presented himself as an LGBTer of color. Even though roughly 90% of DU's LGBT community were pissed about various things, he could always be counted on to lambast us, insinuate we were all racist, and other assorted fun whispers.
Guess who a lot of people picked as the True Voice of the LGBT Community as far as they were concerned? Yep. That guy. He was thrown in our faces relentlessly (ironic given contemporary complaints).
Then one night he mixed up his log-ins and started talking about how he was a white straight waiter in Florida. He quickly deleted, but a ton of us saw it.
He's not around anymore, and the people who practically carried him around this board in a litter never mentioned him again.
It was incredibly awesome.
