Comments like this one have been bothering me lately:

I feel like any supposed tension is overstated. Most LGBT people, including all letters, are normies and don't give a shit. All these bickering is mostly online by total shut-ins.

Yeah, we get it, Tumblr and Twitter (and even Reddit) aren't real life. It doesn't mean the feelings of "total shut-ins" don't exist though, and it doesn't mean they aren't influencing social norms.

What users saying things like that ignore are how the "online total shut-ins" are the loud and now oppressive majority. Their way of thinking is influenced by, and repeated by, big tech and mainstream media. Tech/media reaches EVERYWHERE and EVERYONE, and online/internet is a part of everyday life now - this isn't the 1990s. These voices are being heard by the masses, and laws in the western world are literally being warped and changed to accommodate their views.

There ARE actual real life groups fighting about it. There have been for AT LEAST a few years. Go to any protest where women's rights could be a subject - feminism, lesbian/dyke marches, Pride, sex-segregated safe spaces, etc - and there will be aggression and violence towards supporters. The aggression and violence does not stop until support ends and identity-inclusion begins.

"Normies" don't involve themselves in these displays regularly, so they think the situations that occur are few and far between, and are just being overblown. "Normies" need to open their eyes and realize reality as they know it is being shaped and reformed around them, and they're on the chopping block too. There is no more discussion or debate allowed, and the changes are advancing faster and faster.
