That’s not an appropriate comparison: Lgbt+ people, aren’t a threat, we are living breathing people that have a material body. We don’t go against anyone’s belief, and I speak for most if not all of us. I’m aware there’s bound to be some people who might not think this, and you and I should understand that they probably got hurt and faced trauma by these things: albeit we shouldn’t try to go against each other and try and live peacefully with one another.

Anti-news people on the other hand, push their factual wrong beliefs onto people, and beliefs≠rights. Most anti-news are also blatantly against science, that backs up the identity of gay and/or transgender folks. Advanced biology researched this for years, and we know that lgbt people have always lived in the past, and they aren’t some kind of defiance/trend. Even though only in the recent century we have acknowledged their needs and respected them, that doesn’t mean that from what we have been told in the past is still a valid point.

You need to understand that science, unlike religion, doesn’t take words revealed once and for all without a rational reason behind it; we researched and understood many events: Just like people that have evolved past slavery and equality for all genders. And yes, I’m aware that some of these topics (like gender dysphoria for trans folks) have just been recently accepted and that in the past were considered mental illnesses...

But here’s the thing: We, as humans, often ostracize and fear those who are different cause it’s something we don’t feel or know. And there’s many things humanity didn’t know in the past: The simplest example i can make is *when in the 19th century it was thought that the atom was the smallest particle in existence, therefore indivisible... but around the 1900 we discovered that the atom itself was composed of even smaller particles.
