Obvious right or left wing sources will be removed at the mods discretion. We have an actively updated blocklist, which you can see here: https://lemmy.world/post/2246130 if you feel like any website is missing, contact the mods.

LGBTQ 2 has better graphics, split-screen multiplayer, a customizable interface, and hot-swappable controls. It also supports macros.

But now you have to pay for DLC maps.

LGBT was so popular that they made a sequel with 200% the gay

If LGBTQ is so good, why isn't there... holy shit.

It's LGBT Q2. It's the second quarter for the LGBT corporation.

It stands for "two spirit," which is an Indigenous term for a gender identity similar to being transgender. Canada has been making a more concerted effort to acknowledge and respect Indigenous views and traditions, so it's added to the LGBT+ acronym in Canada

I always thought it was for 2A, for asexual and ally.

Having allies be a part of the acronym is a whole other debate though.

What if you don't believe in spirits or souls?

You get kicked out of the rainbow and have to make your own rainbow.

2nd edition. Same dice.

Advanced LGBTQ & Bad Dragons.

I'm not sure of why anything but Q is involved, doesn't Queer basically cover everything that isn't Hetero? Also I thought people were against labels, but maybe I was wrong since everyone seems to want a label now.

You are wrong.

Don't know the answer to your question but wanted to support the question anyway. I don't get why you're being downvoted
