LGBTQ+ rights.
I was a strong supporter, but the media presence of some "influencers" and subsequent discussions and even proposed laws went way out of hand and into untreated mental health territory.
So now I just ignore any and all mentions about it, to preserve my own sanity. Live and let live, I hope everyone can have the life they want, but I just don't want to hear about it anymore.
Edit: Typos
That's an opinion. Everyone in entitled to one.
But let me shed some light, the LGBTQ community that is outspoken needs to be to get to those "in the back of the room".
In my opinion, they are doing just what suffregets, african americans and other marginalized people have done within the media scope of their time.
In time, their rights and privileges should be part of the mainstream so you won't (shouldn't) even think about it, it's just another niche of humanity that binds us all together.
I, personally, don't want to hear about someone's lord and savior, but I live in a society that some people do.
