Real talk? Seeing some "I can't believe my friends dumped me over voting for trump, so much for the tolerant left, why don't you just talk to me instead of cutting me out" posts today.

For your lgbt friends, trump has:
Opposed the Equality Act (was passed in the house anyways)
Appointed anti lgbt judges (gorsuch, Kavanaugh)
Banned transfolk from the military
Advocated again the affordable care act, endangering millions of lgbt people

For your POC friends:
The Muslim ban???
The rhetoric: African countries = "shithole countries", antiChinese covid rhetoric, referred to BLM as angry mob, threatened demonstrators with federal/military aggression,
Vocal Support from known supremacists (David duke, r. spencer)

So next time you want to whine about how we aren't being tolerant, remember that we are simply refusing to tolerate your direct aggression towards, and encroachment upon our human rights and the numerous harmful dogwhistles and rallying cries to assemble against us.
Also LOL this is nowhere near an exhaustive list. Check the HRC, they have lists.
Here's a nice color coded list of why we don't want to be your friend anymore, and why your support for this administration is a direct betrayal and endangerment of so many https://www.mcsweeneys.net/articles/the-complete-listing-so-far-atrocities-1-967#2020
