Any other information
Several other LGBTQIA+ people were also bothered enough to speak out against this hate speech in chat. The reason this particular comment is harmful is it denies the existence/validity of non-cishet people by claiming their gender/orientation is a choice rather than a fact of their lives. It's simply a rephrasing of "I identify as an attack helicopter". Denial of basic facts like this is how bigots justify their hate; idleside's words are hate speech against LGBTQIA+ people for exactly the same reason Holocaust denial is antisemitic.
