There are two parts to that answer.

The first part is that the LGBTQ+ community is a legally protected class under discrimination laws. The straight community is not, as the straight community is not subjected to legal discrimination. Given the social power dynamics at play, saying "I hate gay people" and "I hate straight people" are not equal.

The second part is that as a matter of FANDOM policy, if someone is being hateful towards other users in any way, regardless of who that hate is being directed towards, we will very likely step in and remove them from contributing to a toxic environment in accordance with our Terms of Use.
