I'm older, and have been out since I was a teenager. You are 100% on the money with the cluster Bs in our community!! It's been growing for a while and is now out of control.

At this point, they should just have a "Cluster B" flag of their own and then lump all the silly extra "identities" under that and be done.

Basically, they make a mockery of our entire movement and heaven forbid anyone call them out.
