@georgetakei I deal with a lot of very young queers in work with Pride, and a lot of them have no concept of the world I grew up in, when my choices were "closeted" or "victim". They have the privilege of standing on the graves of a lot of people we've lost, to violence, to disease, to indifference, and that's fine, making a better world for the next generations was the point of surviving, but it would be nice if they didn't act like it was always as comparatively nice as it is now (and frankly it's not that nice now, shit still sucks, it just used to be a lot worse and they don't seem to know that).
