I often use my dad, a man who buys the Times every day, as a barometer of how well the culture war lines are landing with the average reader, and I am thrilled to report that despite years of hysterical fascist articles, he still literally hasn't noticed any of it because he just skims past anything which seems aggro about nothing.
@stavvers Ditto, although my Dad's left of centre-ish anyway. He has no clue anyone would bother that someone else was living life differently, and would marvel at anyone wasting precious energy shouting into the void about trans people.
