About

#DroptheB, also known as Operation Geschlecht, is a troll hashtag campaign orchestrated by 4chan users to exclude bi-sexuals from the initialism LGBT ostensibly in opposition to the concept of a gender binary.

Origin

On June 7th, 2018, posts encouraging viewers to spread the hashtag #droptheB along with images captioned with the statement "There are more than two genders" were submitted to the "/pol/": (politics) board on 4chan (shown below).[1]

On June 15th, Twitter user @iikibiz[4] posted a tweet about the hashtag, claiming "it's just 4chan alt-righters trying to gaslight you" (shown below).

That day, the LGBT+ news site Pink News[6] published an article titled "What is #droptheb and why should you care?", which referred to 4chan as a "right-wing forum."


Nils @ikibiz #DropTheB was started by right wing trolls with the intention to make it seem as though the movement started on the left. While some (unaware/stupid) radical progressives are now also in on it, remember that it's just 4chan alt-righters trying to gaslight you with s--- like this: IS:

On June 16th, Twitter user @AmazonChique tweeted screenshots of 4chan threads orchestrating the hashtag (shown below).
