The hate on this thread is actually disgusting. I'm convinced these people were not loved enough by their family. I'm in shock. I 100% support this thread.
haha, you assume people's family's don't love them because they have different opinions to you! that's hilarious!

I'm Kodii (Cody) and I'm a 21 year old gay male. I came out my sophomore year (10th), and from there it was nothing but positivity and some backlash for my sexuality.
When I first came to the conclusion that I was gay, I was very confused. It's not something that you just shout from the rooftops at first. It was very confusing because I grew up not really learning about this, my uncle was gay, but I never knew that. It wasn't until middle school when I learned more about different sexualities. I don't have anything against anyone because I believe we're all entitled to do with our bodies and love who we want without judgement. I wear shirts that clearly state I'm gay just because I honestly don't give a shit about anyone's opinion about me because it's not who they are, it's who I am.
It's hard to first think about when you are younger, and I've talked to many people about situations like this, and even had some people come out to me.
Everyone is entitled to comment about their own beliefs and do so without judgement, but when there's constant hate about us just because we're trying to live our life the way we want to, then it just goes too far.
Everyone is the same inside, and just because someone sees someone of the same gender attractive doesn't make them any different then you.
Don't judge someone based off their sexuality, because I grew up learning don't judge a book by it's cover.

To which I completely agree. Except for the shirt / clothes. You have been hypocritical here 'Everyone is the same inside, and just because someone sees someone of the same gender attractive doesn't make them any different then you.' If everyone is the same inside why do you feel the need to show of the fact you're gay, if you're no different to anyone because you're gay (which I agree with) why tell everyone because it just doesn't matter!

What?, all of that reply is extremely confusing
What has this got to do with school, depression or getting forum banned? We are talking about your hypocrisy
Also just for the record, are you saying as soon as you quit minecraft you realised you weren't actually Bi?

Minecraft is addictive and a lot of people play it who change the way you see things. I used to be a Labour Party supporter but now that I actually take time to look at the situation and talk to my family and people in the street I have become a conservative. I prioritised Badlion over school, like so many others. I also used to get so depressed when playing too, now I've stopped myself I have become far happier and much more successful at school. Yes, I did realise I wasn't actually Bi because I was no longer having this gay narrative pushed down my throat.

Again, nothing about what I said had anything to do with quitting the game but just pointing out your hypocrisy from 10 months ago
Regardless though, now that the conversation has developed I do think its very weird how quitting has impacted your life so massively and the blame shouldn't be on Badlion
Firstly with the politics thing, I feel like as you grow up you are naturally introduced to more information about politics. My personal view is that as a 14 / 15 year old you shouldn't massively concern yourself with politics and make it such a strong part of your identity. Anyways I highly doubt that uninstalling Minecraft suddenly makes a certain manifesto more appealing xD
As for school, although many people do spend a lot of free time on the game and prioritise that time over school work, in my opinion it is pretty easy to manage a good mix of the two
As for no longer feeling depressed, that's good and obviously if a game is causing such problems its best to quit / take a break.
However, obviously the game is so addicting because it is fun and therefore people play it to have fun. Whenever I lose interest or feel down about it I just naturally take a break
And then in regards to the sexual preference change, I understand when you are young your personality is always changing and its very possible to think you are a certain way, but I really doubt / think its weird that quitting Minecraft could immediately cause yourself to no longer feel an attraction to the same sex
Overall, its great that you feel better no longer playing Badlion / MC, however I don't think its good to go around blaming Badlion for making you feel a certain way when playing / not playing was up to you. Also if you have quit and have all these negative feelings towards Badlion, then simply leave the forums / community as there is no need to be here tbh
Note: This has nothing to with the actual topic about LGBTQ but ye…

Yeah, I am a Conservative activist, so no, I ain't stopping with politics. Reason I changed is because I used to be so lazy and want everything given to me hence why I was a socialist. However now I have realised you gotta work for things!

Look (viewers), you may not agree with whatever sexuality someone claims to be, or even be against it. The least we can all do is be somewhat respectful towards each other. Everyone has their own set of beliefs and opinions, and it's only fair to treat everyone with respect because the world will never come to an agreement unanimously.To me, I'm not homophobic, or against someone being whatever they want to be. I am, however, against the idea of forcing someone else to believe that someone is something or the other, when they are not. Specifically, I'm against the idea of someone who is transgender and requires everyone around them to treat them as something they believe is true, but others don't see as true (a man forcing everyone to call him she). To me, this is morally wrong because it goes against the idea of equalizing everyone's opinions and beliefs. I also believe there are only two biological genders, male and female, but people can think whatever they want of themselves, and their sexuality. Again, I just don't want someone else to enforce their beliefs onto me, and make me call you something I think you are not.
As far as being gay, lesbian, or really anything else (as long as you're not forcing me to go against facts and my beliefs), I don't really care. People who are homosexual are still people, and should be treated like the rest of us. To me, it's just an issue when people start using their sexuality as an excuse for life's problems, and fall into the victim culture. If you don't know what I mean by this, the victim culture are the essentially the people who play the victim card, and think they are entitled to something simply because they, or their ancestors, have been effected in some negative way. This is an issue in modern society because this culture believes that they don't have to work hard to get far in life, and feel that it is right for them to mooch off of society. Arguably, that can be considered stealing, and downright immoral. Yes, you might have certain challenges facing you because of you are gay, or black, or are a woman, or whatever, but society needs to learn that claiming to be the victim isn't the way to gain recognition and equal ground in society. People instead need to focus on working hard, and making themselves seen by others in society that they are truly on the grounds as everyone else. Everyone has their own unique set of challenges in life, some may have it harder than others, but that is no excuse to not work hard, and push through it. Go out, and make a difference. Don't sit on your ass and expect everyone to make the difference for you.

Could not have said it better myself.
We are all people, to those who want to be treated special or given special attention, shame on you. You are making an argument that you want to feel welcome while hypocritically rejecting others to go to a "different thread" to share their beliefs and opinions.
Also; do not bother tagging or quoting me in this thread as I will simply ignore it. I am not going to be joining into this flame war.
