Yeah.
There's more important things to deal with than forcing people to like pride marches or whatever, but there's also no need to discriminate, or be assholes.

True, although my question is like:
Is there some cultural or legal battle of the LGBTQ+ community beside physical, psychological, healthcare and workplace protections that didn’t stem from liberal think tank and CIA money in universities?

The main problem as i see it is confusion.
Like, yes the libs weaponize this stuff.
Anyone claiming that 'The fucking yanks weaponize LGBT+ rights to attack us' is almost certainly right.
But, that does not change the fact that LGBT+ people should have the same rights as others, and also are often oppressed.
And so when people in the global south say 'Fucking pride parades are western prop' it is often taken as 'gay people should not exist.'
But then there also are people that take that tack.
It's a mess.
