Transgenders are similar, but worse; there are zero people in the world, who got in positions of power while openly trans, AFAIK. And they don't seem to be winning their battle either.

really? because when north carolina introduced their anti-lgbt horseshit, a big pile of companies decided that they don't want to deal with them anymore. so, who's not winning again? north carolina sure as hell doesn't have nearly as many allies (or even really big rich ones). just the ancient relics in chairs who don't understand the world and the equally idiotic religious drones who spread hate.

now that people are coming out and educating people, people are realizing that cis and straight is not the only way a person can be. and through all the misinformation being spread and all the close minded idiots that don't deserve to be on the same planet as people who are trying to move the world forward, the community isn't losing. hell, i've been seeing more ally support. i heard about some bathroom shit which was stupid. then sometime later, heard that north carolina lost a ton of support. so it looks to be tilting out of bigots' favour now. even a place mostly cut off from the world like Japan is learning and accepting. there are shitheads there too, obviously, but the awareness and even acceptance is there.

so how long before north carolina and florida or whatever roll back on their decisions? corporations and politicians are all about money and they must be losing a lot if there are really companies, and even big ones, avoiding them.

but then, how many will trade with them again if they do roll back?

and they certainly don't have the power to topple the economy.

not toppling, but you know. enough to show them that they're assholes.
