Not just that, but they even get the sexism and racism wrong. It’s suburban, middle-class, straight white women who are supposed to be associated with $9 lattes.
Not saying you can’t be offended, but they don’t mean ‘you’re some semblance of queer’ in a negative or hurtful way.

Them is the award-winning authority on what LGBTQ+ means today — and tomorrow. From in-depth storytelling on the fight for LGBTQ+ rights to intimate profiles of queer cultural vanguards, it’s a platform for all of the bold, stylish, and rebellious ways that LGBTQ+ people are reshaping our world every day.
Yeah they’re a super queer friendly publication so it was definitely a tongue in cheek comment. I can see why outside of that context (and in the context of our current awful fucking world) it would be seen differently though.

Technically, all milk is plant-based.
I hope they have numbers to back that statement up or else it’s problematic at best. And even if they do have numbers, ugh, not a good look.
The link misses the last bracket
Gonna try: link
Edit: yeah, seems you just missed a ‘)’
Worked fine for me, I haven’t edited it, and it still works fine?
The “)” is absolutely there.
Hovering your link and mine they are identical.
Strange
On my client (summit/android) a closing bracket is missing and the link doesn’t work
I just tried it on my phone too (Firefox), and it works fine.
So yes strange indeed?
