You don’t need safe spaces if most places are safe.

Nothing to do with what I said, or the situation you're talking about.

There is something to be said for having queer community.

A community isn't defined or limited to a place you frequent to consume stuff. That's what hobbyists have. They're trying to meet other gay people, not play Warhammer 40k.

Also who are you to define what places are safe for other people??

I'm anyone else, who knows what safe is and isn't. This isn't a work of art where two people can walk away with five understandings lmao.

well I disagree - what appears safe to a cis het man might not feel safe to a queer woman, what’s safe for a gay man may not feel safe for a NB person. Safety is a feeling not just a fact

There's nothing to disagree with. Getting punched in the face isn't safe. Not getting punched in the face is safer. My neighborhood is safe, but if you asked me if I'd go down a particular alley at 2AM, I'd say I wouldn't. Safe isn't defined as being able to walk around an area naked without any threat of even staring.

One can feel unsafe but be completely safe. You see that in the modern day where people feel things are worse when they aren't.

One can feel unsafe and be safe, just as one can feel safe and be in total danger. That's just a cliché that can't be tackled. We're talking in the aggregate here, since we're on Reddit, and talking in general.
