    I believe it is how self-proclaimed christians are responding to sexual and gender liberty/tolerance. They see it as lost ground in their crusade against deviance. So they are escalating things beyond reason in order to sooth their own conscience.

    That’s how I see it. Closeted bigots being closeted bigots.

      Also feels like Gen z is more prudish and so, even if they don’t really agree with these movements, they also aren’t as affected, so don’t really care about it happening either.

      And they know the rules will never apply to them anyway even if they get caught. Win win

      Exactly. If they don’t understand, like or want it for themselves, nobody is allowes to have it and they will defund, ban and punish.

      See sexuality, reproductive health, the arts, basic education, etc.
