Yeah, a lot of people seem to think that Communists are more LGBT friendly than average governments, but that doesn't seem to be the case.
Yeah, but even when it was communist, it wasn't LBGT friendly.
old school chinese folks are absolutely not LGBT friendly to say the least
You'll get protection if discrimination passes a certain point, but it's really more of a "hey you shouldn't treat people that way" and not a "hey you shouldn't treat gay people that way."
A lot of older Chinese people just feel that the Western LGBT environment is rather odd: the rampant sexualization and PDA is at odds with the traditionally conservative culture. If the LGBT movement had adopted a more traditional protest scheme rather than the flair of flamboyance it has today, it would have seen much more support in China imo.
Also, a lot of Chinese TV has homoerotic undertones, idk what you're watching.
American LGBT are attention whores. They wouldnt know how to live a quiet life.
Generalize some more, makes you look smart.
In the 90s when lgbt was quieter, they said what happens in my bedroom is my business. Well now its everyones business weather you like it or not. With gen z, if youre not one of them youre a homophobe. Screw your preferences.
Ah, got it. Can’t have the gays being out and proud, that would be just awful.
You fucking bigot.
Yeah but the problem with your argument is it's the Chinese people that aren't LGBTQ friendly. The communist government actually is.
Here's an article from the CCP celebrating LGBTQ people getting their equivalent of civil unions.

Here's a list of popular Chinese Boy Love dramas that were created in China and approved by the CCP

Yes, China censors actual kissing and physical contact in their LGBTQ films, however, that actually applies to straight films too. China just likes to censor things. However, it does not actively pick on LGBTQ.
The problem is the people, as per the article
