You really can't refrain from sharing your prejudices apparently.
I was born and am a good example of a privileged straight white male... so why is it that I have absolutely no trouble distinguishing between the minuscule number of zealous or hateful gay people out there, many of whom hold no position of power in society, in contrast to the large group of dimwitted retrogrades who are unable to reckon with the personal freedoms of others? These are the same people that gravitate toward religious lunacy and repressive politics in general all over the world.
I wonder why you even bring up homosexuality and polyamory together. Maybe next you'll dig up some stats to associate the two, but what you don't understand is that there's another way to live entirely and it's this... I don't care at all about the consensual romantic lives of other adults, I try to avoid characterizing gay, straight or really any large cohort of people as a group, and I especially don't feel any need to justify my straightness to anyone at all. It's pretty simple.
> I have met several LGBT people who refer to heterosexual people by perjoratives like "the straights" and "cis scum" and openly mock things like traditional marriage ceremonies. Like, in real conversations. To people's faces.
And a gay person has probably encountered thousands of people that have attitudes like that toward their sexuality... I really don't know what your point is.
I went to a well-known hippie college and knew people that were gender studies majors, LGBT, etc., and none of them resemble your characterization.
It's illuminating that there's the Federal Analogue Act used to go after recreational drugs users but nothing equivalent for chemicals that are environmental hazards.
For years I stuck with MATE, Xfce4, LXQT, etc. to get optimal performance on old hardware but nothing can top a tiling window manager.
With Nixos I switch between Gnome 40 (I do like the Gnome workflow) and i3 w/ some Xfce4 packages, but lately on my older machine the performance of Gnome (especially while running Firefox) is so sluggish in comparison that I may have switched back permanently now.
And mediafire.com was wiped of nearly everything on the same day, which was also devastating for a lot of niche music scenes that had uploaded an unprecedented amount of material there.
