I understand there is an LFG community, but it is dead. If this is not allowed feel free to remove it

My partner finally found a decent group to play DnD online with, but it turns out not all of them are that decent. There is an individual with right leaning views that they are not comfortable playing with. They are absolutely devastated, as they have been wanting to play for years

I'm not asking for a game, or group, but hopefully a community of like-minded individuals for them to be a part of. I don't know the first thing about it, so I come here in desperation to try to cheer my partner up

Edit:

They will be turning 30 this year. They are non-binary, and looking for a safe space from any right-wing politics. They use they/them pronouns and needs somewhere that this will be respected

They have a character and back story if that helps

We are in the Central Time Zone in the U.S.

Aah, the Deep South makes for a whole different kind of animal where these problems are concerned. The best that I can think of it to network with groups operating IRL out of your nearest large city's gay neighbourhood - odds are better to find parties better aligned to your SO's situation, and much, much less tolerant of the kind of abuse which can be expected in the sticks/country outside of urban centers. If the pair of you aren't urban, there may be a way to connect with players & DMs in the same time zone, if not close enough to play around the table.

These were local lgbt people. They chose a Trump voter over my partner

Aargh, twice as bad that way, what a shitty bunch of jerks. Not quite a crab bucket, I can't quite remember the idiom to suit this scenario, but easy to say that they should have known better than anyone. Let them sleep with the enemy and sow their own oats in spoiled dirt, there are other gaming groups out there.

It was ridiculous, but we are past it and searching for new friends. You have been so much help, and your kind words have been uplifting

Glad to hear it, best of luck.
