Original Note:
Less than 1% of people in the UK who identify as not heterosexual, use the term 'Queer'. The @BBC are making a seriously egregious and insulting mistake by using a historical slur as a descriptor of a gay man when the vast majority of #LGBTQ people do not use this term. https://x.com/jaxwilldonicely/status/1732127213686804890?s=20
