Greetings, I always had a problem with a site called reddit,yes lemmy is not reddit,and yesterday I have been permanently banned from it.Mostly there are two reasons: anti-migrant statements, and speaking against LGBTQ .I don’t want to do self-censorship.So is this site for me or should I find another one ?

Thats a rather bigoted opinion you have.

Are you for fucking real here? I'm bigoted because some dude wants a nice racist echo chamber where he can shit on queers and immigrants?

No need to get upset. Here is a definition of bigotry, which in my opinion matches your comment well:

https://simple.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bigotry

A bigot is a person who is intolerant of opinions, lifestyles, or identities that are different from their own. Mostly, the person's opinions are based on prejudice.

Note that op hasnt given any indication that he would "shit on" anyone, he just wants a place to express his opinion (which you obviously cant know). So its really your prejudice speaking.

Op want a place to express their prejudice as you stated a bigot.

Per your definition being intolerant of persons that explicitly state their bigotry doesn't make you a bigot...
