From what I gather, people are just angry that people from NoVA are moving here because they're driving up the cost of property due to paying way over what houses are worth. I wouldn't tell you to stay out of here though.
Richmond City is fairly queer friendly. We have a couple of LGBT+ bars, diversity thrift shop, and pride events. There are, as always, people who discriminate, but it's less common in the city and more outside of it. Don't go anywhere really rural. Our LGBT+ community is kind of small though.
We have a diverse range of restaurants. Indian, Mexican, Italian, Korean, Japanese, Greek, all that.
Our population is pretty diverse as far as nationality.
I personally find that Richmond people are very clicky. It's not easy to make friends imo.
Nothing to worry about as far as internet.
I also think being a weeb, you'll fit right in. We have to many people here who love anime and gaming.
