I took a survey recently that asked if I thought people were too sensitive about things other people say and I couldn’t bring myself to say disagree completely, because so many people are so sensitive about the idea of someone else being hurt by something
Given that Mutants were written more for all marginalized groups and not JUST LGB individuals is the point here. But yeah, “anyone who doesn’t agree with me is literally hitler” is the appropriate lemmy-take on it.
Lemmy is definitely black and white but your comment didn’t exactly read that way. I don’t think you’re Hitler though, shit just gets lost easily in text.
Because back in the 60s-80s, the T hadn’t been adopted yet?
From about 1988, activists began to use the initialism LGBT in the United States. Not until the 1990s within the movement did gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender people gain equal respect.
The transgenderism movement hasn’t really been accepted widely until rather recently, in fact. EVEN with “LGBT” becoming a thing in the early 90s. There was some discussion of “this being a thing since the beginning” – so I’m referencing that time period in relation to that part of the discussion.

I see you didn’t understand the question, why did you leave it out?
