TBH IDK why there is so much woke hype about LGBTQ+ here on lemmy, trans here trans there… I believe it’s more like some kind of propaganda to get votes from young people.
People here give too much importance for 4.5% of the population.
Because that 4.5% of the population is deserving of the same human rights as anyone else, and when they are denied those rights, they are more susceptible to abuse and suicide.
Yeah I mean I understand that point, what I cannot understand it’s why the media it’s pushing and pushing and pushing it over and over again.
I think it’s good caring about LGBTQ+ people, but personally I reached a point when seeing it every single day in the news over and over again become a meh.
Malnutrition in children not only in America but throughout the world is a more worrying issue than that and I don’t see anyone pushing it over and over again every single day.
People have not stopped talking about queer rights, because nothing has changed for the better, except for symbolic things like marriage which do nothing to improve actual quality of life.
As for malnutrition, why do you think food assistance programs exist? While it may not be under a political spotlight, food security is indeed a relevant current issue. Just because you haven’t read about it recently doesn’t mean it’s being ignored.
You should try to understand the limits of your own perspective.
