Don't get me wrong. I am very glad Trump is gone, for obvious reasons. And it's awesome that America now has it's first female VP. I also think that Democrats have the potential to be good in areas of actual inequality and some things might get better for the average American, though maybe it's too early to say.

However I am very scared about the potential for how the Democrats could push more LGBTQ+ nonsense and harm a lot of people. Apparently Biden mentioned transgender people in his latest speech and that alone is worrying. At best it's just a meaningless virtue signal but honestly I don't think it ever stops there. People on this sub often seem confident that the trans movement is close to burning itself out, and well... if America stayed with a Republican government, as shitty as that would be, maybe it would. But now I think that it will be reignited and the trans/LGBT+ movement will be given fuel to do more damage.

I'm concerned as a homosexual, because I know that most likely shit will be swept under the rug by "tolerance" policies, aka everything is fine as long as it's self expression, even if that means treating other people like shit or treating homosexuality as an accessory. Straight people seem to love shit like Drag Race and yaoi and all kinds of bullshit that stereotypes homosexuals as clowns/comic relief. And with "tolerance" policy "transphobia" is bad so it may well become a crime to say NO I don't want to date FTMs. Some places are already making "misgendering" a crime.

I'm concerned as a GNC male because the trans shit has potential to get worse, and that means telling more children & adults that they're not actually their sex if they don't conform to gender roles. "Progressives" in western countries also want to ban "trans conversion therapy" which basically just means NOT allowing someone to transition. This could be used against unwilling people, they could be bullied and coerced into trasition by being told they "only don't want it because of internalized transphobia" and that if they don't transition they will be miserable and die, etc.

I'm concerned as an intersex person because, well, LGBT+ never treats intersex people nicely, they seem to shit on us at every turn they get, and giving LGBT+ a platform and listening to them allows them to do it more. What's worse is that the "tolerance" shit means that anything and everything they say about intersex people is taken as the truth and "woke" even if it's horribly discriminatory. This is already happening, the NHS website in the UK has changed "Disorder of Sexual Development" to "Differences in Sexual Development" and is trying to convince people it's a "variation in sex" and not a disorder. The Planned Parenthood website is doing similar and has listed intersex as a "normal variation that isn't a medical condition" and goes on to say that intersex people don't need medical treatment, which is DANGEROUS misinformation. Some intersex people have very serious health problems that could leave them in immense suffering or even death if not tended to.

And I don't believe "progressives" are doing much to combat misinformation. Even if they (rightly) call out actual cases of misinformation like Trump supporters claiming that sharpies ruin their ballots and the election was faked, etc, they will not touch the validity of information that has anything remotely to do with LGBT+ because questioning has been deemed to be "bigoted."

What about women's rights and safety? Will having a female VP make things better? Maybe. But will it also be nullified by "progressive" policies that fill female spaces and positions with MTFs until those spaces are overwhelmingly male? Will anyone call this out and stand up for women or will anyone who dares to question it be shunned and lose his/her job?

Now, I'm not American so you're probably wondering why I care. Well the uncomfortable truth is that, America makes itself the center of the world, ESPECIALLY when it comes to being "progressive." Lots of countries elsewhere have adopted American identity politics following their decisions, and use America as a base for what is politically correct. Not to mention I also believe Americans intentionally force their way of things onto the rest of the planet, too. Plus just because I'm not American myself doesn't mean I can't be concerned for the wellbeing of people who DO live there.

And I know Biden isn't THAT "progressive" because I've already seen SJWs whining that he's "too centrist" (lol) but like I said, I get concerned the minute a politician mentions LGBT stuff. It's never a good omen.

If it does get worse, what can be done?

Education and fact checking is important as ever. I think realistically the best thing we can do, as hard is it may be, is to calmly educate, and try not to get angry at people. This is tiring because some people don't listen and trust what their idiot friend of a friend said over 20 clear articles easily found on the internet, but it's worth a try. And as much as I'd approve of very vocal, very real protests if things got bad - I think they are ineffective right now. I think that will just give people more fuel to call anyone who questions it "violent anti-LGBT extremists."

Sorry but I don't think groups like "LGB alliance" (who sit on their asses wanking to Stonewall and don't give a fuck about people in need) and radical feminism (angry extremists) are going to cut it. If LGBT+ stuff really gets worse, both in America and the rest of the world, then niche groups will not help, it needs to be a non-group affiliated effort from as many people as possible. Hiding behind a group is ineffective because modern politics is about "us vs them" and people find reasons to hate on the "enemy group." Or even go as far as to declare that group a "hate group." So don't make any "enemy group" to begin with. Act as an individual, and I think that will work better.
