A personal opinion: maybe the way in which protests/manifestations/sit-ins were made in the last couple of decades did not serve well for the LGBTQIA+ cause. They were more targeted at creating scandal and raising awareness in a disruptive and "disturbing" way. Let's leave this kind of method to modern Art and to deconstructivism, here people's rights are at stake, a theme that would be normal and "granted" in a normal and sane society. Look at what is happening instead, it's really sad.
