I don't want to post this on a board filled with other kids but I want to vent about it to someone not IRL and it is friendly here \^/
A old friend is pushing me to get a facebook account when we talked on kik, then I looked up her facebook page and she was liking the biggest taiwan anti-gay page and flaming people and copying "scientific data" about gay being mental disorders and telling them to go die x.x
She doesn't study with me anymore but this group of friend meet up each Christmas (one of them is gay) so I have to tell the others about her and try ditch her, FML T_T

Ugh, I hate people like that! I'd say, tell her to her face she's an idiot and you now hate her.
Okay, maybe don't do that, but seriously, I get the feeling that's what I'd do if I were in your situation. I don't know how else to help, besides saying I'm your sister in suffering: I'm a 4 or 5 on the Kinsey scale, as well as very open and accepting of my sexuality, so these types of people are actually scary. And not in the sexy way.

And not in the sexy way. I am "cis" but some of my(and her) friends are gay/bi. They already feel stress and bad about it since we are just starting secondary school. Some ppl tell me that if I am confident I should talk with her. But because she use facebook and our friends and me don't, we never know she is crazy hateful about gays. Still can't decide cut or stay but FML so much T_T

Face the conflict by bringing up the question in a non-interventionish way (don't mention the facebook thing, people don't like feeling like they're being stalked) or say nothing and face a permanent uneasy atmosphere whenever she's around Seriously, burning questions like these will be more detrimental to everyone involved the longer they stay unanswered. Bring up gays and see where it goes

Assuming your friends can be adults about this, you can always pull a Heisenberg. Call a meeting to "clear the air." A functioning adult should be able to make their own decision about even wanting to keep contact with such a toxic person.

Yeah, I agree with the others that you really need to address this somehow. Otherwise, negative energy will build up around you until it becomes a monster or something (okay, that won't happen, but the thoughts and feelings swirling around in your head will feel like a monster if you just stay quiet)!

I asked about how to respond to someone who had a different view point from mine about LGBT+ rights a while ago. I politely disagreed with them, and that was that. But this person was not as extreme as the person you're talking about. I hope you can work it out with them.

Wow, yea that sounds like a shitty situation. I hope it works out for you.
Just FYI, though, cis doesn't mean "not gay", it means "not trans".
