I can understand why all the other things would be listed here, and I would understand if sexuality in general was considered inappropriate for children, but why homosexuality in particular? This is strange to me.

    pride parades

    The news is the only thing that cares. I’ve never seen one.

    media being changed

    Often done for diversity’s sake at the cost of quality, yes. This is executive meddling and generally doesn’t work as intended.

    Folk who just want to mind their own business, aren’t allowed to anymore

    You totally are, just avoid media hype.

    I don’t even think you’re necessarily wrong, but I’m arguing that in the absence of media amplification and/or existing bigotry, this would not be a problem.

      I do agree that media amplification is not only part of the problem, but a significant portion of it. but the media influence has started to regretfully show its effects
