Yes, I agree that the social pendulum swings, but if you can't see how ruthlessly the LGBTQ+ -phobia has been co-opted by the clearly fascist MAGA movement, I don't know what to tell you. And I have a very clear set of criteria for what I identify as fascist, or fascist-enabling, fascism-adjacent, etc. Truly fascistic things are happening. (just for your everlasting love of the .gif, and a big shoutout to Ron and Rand Paul)

The acceptance/tolerance of LGBTQ+ is a seismic shift? edit: Genuinely asking, this isn't a "gotcha" trap. I think that's what you meant, but it was unclear if you meant that the backlash was seismic. I think I know now that you meant the success of the LGBT movement.
