The world is because the internet is controlled by people that want to manipulate global perspectives and anti-LGBTQ+ ideals are one of the ways they make people fight each other instead of them. People always blame things like influencers but you have to remember that the platforms they are on have been incentivising hate for over a decade.
Yes! Thank you! I’ve been shouting this for over a decade.
And I keep saying that Gamergate should’ve been the moment to take notice of this. Even yesterday I included this in another comment. That was the gate that opened this flood. And that should’ve been the moment to shut down algorithmic incentive for engagement. People shrugged and moved on. Then came Snowden trying to warn everyone of the consolidation of power. People shrugged and moved on. Then it came the Cambridge Analytica Scandal. People shrugged and moved on.
There’s that phrase… “we always have the world we deserve”. I used to rebel against this statement. But I find myself agreeing with it more and more over time. I still don’t like it as a blank statement though. Too many don’t deserve the outcomes of it.
The reasonable person adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore all progress depends on the unreasonable person.
We’ve all have been reasonable for too long and the fascist have changed the world to adapt to them.

This kinda reminds me of the quote
