> Does that mean that I shouldn't be involved online in the lgbt community whatsoever What I'm saying is that YouTube is a terrible place to have a lgbt community. Most of the closed-garden Internet is a terrible place to have a lgbt community, because all it takes is Zuck or Brin or some other "benevolent" dictator deciding to reveal all your secrets, and you're dead. Like, there was that girl who was disowned by her parents once Facebook made group memberships public on profiles, because she happened to be part of a lgbt group at her university. You're putting a hell of a lot of trust in Google or Facebook over what is, for you, a life-or-death situation. Choose a community where people only use pseudonyms, and which isn't driven by corporate profits. Edit: Also, a "anonymous" online political activist is going to live a miserable life; look at Snowden and Manning and Assange. You can't even send stuff to the newspapers any more without angry people coming to destroy your hard drives.
