According to the Advocate, a study from GLAAD shows that support for LGBTQ+ equality remains high in the U.S., but negative rhetoric is having an impact.
There continues to be supermajority support for equal rights for LGBTQ+ people, standing at 80 percent — but that’s down from the record 84 percent reported last year.
GLAAD President and CEO Sarah Kate Ellis wrote: “Extremist politicians, unchecked and enabled in the media — including social media — have relentlessly targeted LGBTQ people with harmful legislative proposals and disinformation campaigns. The same lawmakers and extremist judges targeting abortion access, contraception, immigration, voting rights, and free speech are using the same strategies of fear and disinformation.”
The good news is that not only does support for LGBTQ+ rights remain high, but 95 percent of non-LGBTQ+ people seem to believe that schools should be safe and accepting for all youth, and 93 percent think children should be taught to appreciate and accept people as they are. Ninety-one percent believe LGBTQ+ people should be able to live their lives free from fear, and 89 percent want LGBTQ+ people should be free from discrimination. The overall picture is optimistic, but the Queer God Squad reminds you that there is still work to do. We can never take our freedoms or security for granted.
