Wow. From r/GayBros? Srsly?

They were notoriously one of the more openly mysgonstic and "drop the t" of the queer subs. That's kinda wild honestly.

I was subscribed there for years and never saw a word of that...

Well I don't know what to tell you aside from seeing a lot of posts on trans subs where OP would be like

Why do gay men hate trans women? I got told by someone in a LGBTQIA+ sub that I was just a a confused gay guy?

And the comments would be filled with people guessing

"This was /GayBros wasn't it? They are like that, Gay men as a whole aren't."

I won't argue with your experience, but at minimum that sub DEFINITELY had a reputation.

Redditors are known for making up random stuff just to cause drama.

They never expected the brownshirts to come for them, i guess.

you may be confusing r/GayBros for r/askgaybros. Roughly the same size and spelling, but only one of them has a strong reputation for transphobia.
