A subreddit for accidental, allies. What it says on the tin, really. Example

Rules:

Must be a person who is against LGBT people accidentally supporting/affirming/being good to them, through ignorance or otherwise.
Unrepentant bigotry will earn you a ban. Read more: https://www.reddit.com/r/AccidentalAlly/wiki/bigotry
Due to the sometimes personal nature of these posts, it can be easy to find the people in question. If you follow any posts here to their source, if you go and contact the bigots involved in any capacity; commenting, pming etc, you will get a ban. No ifs, no buts, no excuses. This is to protect against accusations of raiding/harassment.
