They aren't LGBT friendly, but I don't think they are as bad as US conservatives. Most conservative Chinese people would talk behind your back like "look at that gay couple, so weird", but most people aren't gonna be shouting at your face or attacking you, at worst, you get get labeled the "weirdo" of the village. If you're in the city, that doesn't even matter much.

The CCP doesn't actively hunt down people unless they protest about it. It's sorta a "Don't ask, Don't tell" situation. You won't get protection from discrimination, you wont get LGBT media on tv, you can't have LGBT events in public, but at least you can quietly live your life.
