Remote schooling is taking its toll on LGBTQ students. Many say they are experiencing increased loneliness, anxiety and depression since the pandemic began, according to a poll from The Trevor Project and Morning Consult.

Forty-one percent also said the pandemic has affected their ability to express their identity, including more than half of transgender and nonbinary youth.

They worked with their Gay-Straight Alliance group at school, which gave people signs about their gender identity without ever spelling it out. “But you can't do that with online school, or at least it's a lot more difficult,” Blancaflor said. because it was difficult to process what was happening. Online learning became more manageable over time, but "I typically like talk to my friends in person about 'this is what gender is like for me,' but I can't meet with them,"

Along with literally everyone else.

So what you're saying is that LGBTQXYZ students are just like all the other students.

:EMILY 🏳️‍🌈✨BLM✨ ACAB ❌ THEY/THEM/HER/HE/ HELICOPTER/TRANSFORMER SAMSUNG SMART FRIDGE is typing.....

It’s impacting every child.

So much for, 'We're all in this together.'

LGBTQ students are the “essential” students we should be worrying about.

Duh 🙄 & every other NORMAL child.

This tweet is braindead

How about all students?

Holy fucking shit! Remote school is taking its toll on all students.

It’s effecting all children they have issues like any kid

Um...Politico? It’s ALL kids. Loneliness and depression are affecting teens in a tremendous way during this pandemic.

Other news sources: “Meteor Will Hit Earth Tomorrow, Destroying All Life” Politico: “LGBTQ Teens Experiencing ‘Meteor Anxiety’ According the A-holes Who Think Everything is about Sexuality”

Now do gingers.

Yeah, okay. Get in line.

New York Times headline: 'World Ends, LGBTQ Children Hardest Hit.'

Who knew that teacher unions were homophobic?

What about the other 95% of the class? I know of an 11 year old who committed suicide because of this bullshit.

All students feel that way

What a stupid statement! Everyone’s mental health is being affected!

Same for the rest of kids, not sure why we call out groups yet want everyone to be treated the same.

liberal politico hates straight people

ALL KIDS ARE SUFFERING.

Weird how these things only seem to impact lbgt students

Just like the rest of the kids. But, muh woke woke

Parents, take your children back from these media assholes.

All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others

But reopening schools is racist. What to do?!...

Everyone else is doing fine though. 🙄

More propaganda.

and the rest of the kids are what?... happy?

Only LGBTQ students? The ones who are bullied and discriminated against (and subject to violence and death) are now missing school. For heavens sake be consistent in your bullsh*t at least

FIFY Remote schooling is taking its toll on students.

Oh cool, all the teen suicides the last few months just gonna get ignored if they aren't lgbt?

follow the science, your feelings don't matter just follow the science.

It's taking its toll on all kids. Why are you pandering?

You think it’s only LGBTQ?

It's taking a toll on ALL kids. All.

Then open the schools and cut the bullsh*t... ALL students are suffering because of this crap...

Um, it's not just gay kids, you idiots

All animals are equal. Some animals are more equal than others

LOL

That's true for everyone. Why make this about LGBT? Oh right, to virtue signal.

Yeah screw the lonliness that non protected status groups have

Just the LGBTQ students? Good to know the rest are OK, but kind of hard to explain.

Progressivism is cancer.

Blame trump

We're all in this together, except LGBTQ are in it way worse than everyone else. AlwaysAVictim

Classic example of how progressivism is isolating as an ideology. LGBT people might have unique challenges, but they are no greater than anyone else's in terms of these feelings right now and it naturally isolates both them and straight people to pretend otherwise.

I think everyone with children are being affected....

Straight white males least affected

Fact! Actual Women are works of living art created by nature over millions of years.

Why continue with these non stories- everyone is suffering together through this- not good but it is part of the greater good.

Oh, just them?

🤔that is pure and utter discrimination of non LGBTQ people! How NOT inclusive! The real question is: which groups feel most lonely and depressed followed by why?

You mean since the Gov't restrictions began? There was never a pandemic. This is democidal activity.

😂 ALL STUDENTS
