Queer people can still be queerphobic (TW for queerphobia and some swearing ig)

unsure if this is a hot take or not, you tell me. But recently I've been seeing a lot of queerphobic people in the LGBTQ+ community (not on here ofc, just in general on the rest of social media). Like, transphobic gay/bi people who say we should "separate the LGB from the TQ+", or transmedicalists for example. Or, especially commonly, trans or gay people who bully kids that use neopronouns and xenogenders, which is so weirdly normalized even in the queer community. How the fuck does it affect you if some person (usually a kid, too) on the internet wants to go by pup/pupself or something? you're hating on them for the same reason cishet queerphobes hate on us – because they don't fit into what you consider "normal". A great example of this queer-on-queer bigotry is Blair White, a trans woman who claims that nonbinary people aren't trans, and who loves to punch down other trans people while pandering to the far-right and acting like she's "one of the good ones", and all these old conservatives in her comment sections are just eating it up. She also talks about predators who are trans, which wouldn't be inherently bad if she wasnt explicitly pointing out their transness as if it's a valid reason for why they're predators. These people love to pick and choose which queer people are worthy of rights and which aren't, failing to realize that the only way to liberate all of us is to be united. But pandering to conservatives wont help them, anyways, because in the end the leopards will still eat their faces too.
