Heterophobia is the discrimination of straight people by the members of the LGBT community, most of the time on the internet.
Heterophobia, unlike homophobia, isn't followed with physical violence, but only jokes and sarcasm with bad intentions, insults, threats, and a general reject of the straight community.
Heterophobia is strongly tied to Cisphobia.
The reason Heterophobia exists is because of Homophobia, and after years of oppressions, the LGBT community used it as a way to defend themselves, except some of them push it way too far.
The LGBT community refuses to think Heterophobia is real because "you can't oppress a majority" and "it's not rooted in society", except that discrimination isn't about a majority oppressing a minority because it's in their society, it's about people rejecting people for who they are.
LGBT : You can't join the discussion, you're straight, you don't know oppression
Straight : That's discriminatory, I just want to give my opinion...
LGBT : Oh, so sad, you think Heterophobia exists, let me drink your straight tears

the literal fear of straight people, not like homophobia which is the hatred to queer people, an example of heterophobia can be fear of coming out due to what it can lead to or fear of walking alone at night as a visible queer person

straight people doesn’t get killed, bullied, fired, put in danger, seen as a freaks, can get married in any country, or anything, when queer people uses straight negatively it’s a coping mechanism, every queer person on earth is the victim of homophobia, it doesn’t even count as dark humour it’s just a coping mechanism
straggot: hey! you said that straight people are annoying! cool it with the heterophobia

person: calm down snowflake you’re not oppressed

A term coined within recent years, which means the hate or general dislike of heterosexual people. It is extremely controversial and scrutinized, specifically by 2SLGBTQ+ people. Now personally I believe it is an issue, although it isn't as big of an issue, it's still as important. The aforementioned 2SLGBTQ+ people (Two-Spirited, Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, and Queer +*) do have a certain group of them that enjoy scrutinizing heterosexual people for their orientation, or acting as if they're superior to heterosexuals, this is mostly seen on Tumblr, Twitter and rarely on Instagram. (Now please keep in mind I'm saying a certain group, not generalizing all of these people, which I've actually seen the reverse happen on the aforementioned social media platforms.) Though heterosexuals aren't marginalized, that doesn't leave an excuse to attempt to scrutinize them. For example, if a heterosexual was mean to you, it doesn't make them all horrible and give you an excuse to hurt them on social media. Same goes for having a bad experience with homosexuals, it doesn't make them all horrible and give you an excuse to hurt them on social media. Both sides have problems, but the (legitimate, not the ones homophobes have) problems with 2SLGBTQ+ people sometimes go ignored. I wish we could all get along, but there will always be hate in this world, on both sides
*The "+" means other sexualities to abbreviate the acronym.

Emma: Shut up, you inferior cishet!
Heterophobia isn't a good thing.

The discrimination against straight people.
It is real, because claiming something shitty just because a person is straight is discrimination in and of itself.
Person 1: "Heterophobia is not real, we can talk however we want about straight people!~"

Person 2: "Heterophobia IS real, because what you just said is discrimination."

A term coined for SJW's that get so into the LGBT+ that they degrade straight people for no reason becoming the very thing they want to get rid of
SJW: Straight people have no right to be on the internet, they're all garbage human beings

Normal Person: That's Heterophobia, and it's literally against everything you want to achieve by alienating a group of people for their sexual orientation

A real thing in which people hate straight people for what? Cause they don’t get killed everywhere? And it’s always called fake to hide people’s heterophobia
Person 1: I hate straights why are they not killed everywhere?
Person 2: you don’t need to be murdered every where

Person 1: *passive aggressive bullshit*
Person 2: just say you’re plagued with heterophobia
