Anyone else thought of the growing number of books with queer characters, LGBT themes becoming more common in YA, etc.?

Not books but they may as well be vaguely interactive books.

I was watching a video earlier today about the upcoming game-adjacent-thing We Are OFK (peak nu-leftist drivel) and that lead me to watch videos about other similar mistakes like Goodbye Volcano High ("queer" furry/scaley visual novel), and Life is Strange: True Colors (woke attempt at superhero/mystery where the main heroine's power is... empathy).

Any of you came across these titles or any similar?

I've heard of Call Me By Your Name (but I imagine a lot of people have) and Carry On, but I avoided them for obvious reasons.

I've read the summary for Detransition, Baby twice and both times blocked it out because it was the most AGP thing I'd ever read. Can't begin to tell you what it's actually about for the life of me beyond like, fucked up fetishism. Oh, and there's some book about men turning into monsters but MTFs being exempt because they take estrogen and an evil terf military.

Oh fuck, I also remember reading the Jem and the Holograms comic reboot that Sophie I love little children Labelle helped with. It sucked so bad. I'm still mad that a child predator and friends ruined such a fun, stupid, campy series.

Do you think these books only appeal to the people who were already submerged in SJW ways of thinking

Yeah. Pretty much.

I heard of Goodbye Volcano High... Thing simply looks cursed. I noticed Life is Strange series is pretty popular among certain wokies (at least is was for some LGBTs I met). Shit, Labelle was involved in Jem and the Holograms comic? Maybe I heard vaguely and completely forgot (or didn’t hear) but that’s just sick... BTW I hope more people will open their eyes and Labelle ends up being cancelled or something.

Sorry, I got Labelle mixed up with another troon. Sophie Campbell.

I see, no worries. Still bad, these kind of people infiltrate someone’s else casual hobbies...
