I've long believed that the crucial advantage of the term "queer" over the acronyms is that it acknowledges that diversity is not something you can exhaustively enumerate. we must be always prepared to embrace diversity that we hadn't considered before. this is the most consistent inclusivity
it also avoids listing them *in a specific order*
@lewdum It also also avoids listing them, which means that malicious parties can't carefully exclude one or more subgroups. (Thinking of "LGB Alliance", in case that wasn't obvious.)
@woozle those people have been calling queer a slur for a long time now, precisely because they cannot use it to exclude anyone. Our choice of words will never have much of an influence on their hate; speaking up is the only thing that works (specially those LGB people that these bigots claim to speak for)

@darkwiiplayer Choosing and reclaiming words won't stop the hate, but can make it more difficult to spread it.

It's kind of hard to get someone upset by calling them a name if they embrace it.
