That was obviously a hyperbole but when you go to the most extreme elements of the conservative right ' see podcasters like Nick Fuentes'. They essentially admit to what they really want,support or are okay with. And that is a HUGE part of the movement coalescing under Trumpism. These movements are on the rise, globally and in all of those countries you mention. You are not as safe as you think.
And also, you said you where ALWAYS accepted. What does that post about 'accepted in 2025' have to do with anything? Do you literally not know your own countries history?

You have rights because of civil rights movements fighting for it. And so you are legally protected. That does not mean your whole country accepts you.

I dont watch Nick Fuentes or people like him, I watch less extreme opinions because that kind of extreme doesnt interest me so I guess that's on me, fair.

Also to your second question, I was more saying that LGBTQ+ people have been accepted for quite a long time now (which is good, just for clarification), it's not really a very recent thing. Once again I am talking mostly from an europe perspective, the US is a whole different thing on its own

I don't call less than a century 'a long time' tbh. Given the total history of civilization we have only been accepted legally, fairly recently. And are still persecuted in many countries. That should tell you something. We are still fighting for our rights on a global level.

Also I have been in Europe ,lived there, worked there, voted there and have friends there. It is full of right wing bigotry and trumpism.

Just for a US perspective, my childhood best friend just had to leave Florida after our governor made it near impossible for her to continue her hormone treatment for gender dysphoria. She’s in New York now where she’s able to access her healthcare normally. They are definitely coming after people, it’s basically the Christian Taliban. They’re already getting bills ready to ban gay marriage as well as lawyers to challenge the Supreme Court over Obergefell v. Hodges. Pregnant woman are dying due to doctors being afraid to treat them because if a miscarriage happens the doctor can be charged with murder. Human rights are being stripped away in the US, that’s why people are vocal and flying rainbow flags. The moment you are silent in this country is the moment you lose.
