@deidara aaaagh, that sounds horrible

The youth group I was in had a more inclusive inner circle, but that inner circle would disown people for the pettiest shit - too much time on a phone, looking too hench, just generally "acting weird", all of that, plus since it was closely linked with the local community college's LGBT club the drama from there got dragged along a lot too

One of my best friends from middle school, a trans girl like myself, was in this same youth group and went to a ton of the events and all, and I've seen the inner circle of that group go and call her annoying and a pest right outside of a diner while she was paying for her food because she was on her phone too much

Considering that she's got a precarious home situation and these groups are one of the only ways she can validate her identity, that's honestly disgusting
