A majority of Republicans now say same-sex relations are immoral after a year of 'groomer' attacks on the LGBTQ community
Republican support for same-sex relations dropped 15 percentage points since last year in an annual Gallup poll.

Key info:
Only 41% of Republicans say gay or lesbian relations are morally acceptable, according to Gallup. That is a 15% drop from 2022, the largest single-year change since Gallup began asking the question. Democratic approval also fell from 85% to 79%.
I've always said that ultimately the only people we can rely on are ourselves, the queer community.

You relied on republicans?!

I think the point is that there was also a dip with Dems. But IMHO, as someone who runs a lot of surveys for a living, the key it to look at the overall trend line, not one data point. And the overall democratic trend line over the past few years seems to have some noise in it that vacillates + or - 5% from the trend line.
The GOP line though… that feels like a change from historical trend line.

The GOP jump seems notable and steep, but the Democratic dip feels like it’s in line with the normal noise and variance that you get with a reoccurring survey.

You’re going to get normal peaks and valleys with a reoccurring survey. The respondent pools are never identical year over year. And with progressives, who skew younger and don’t answer phone surveys, you’re going to have even more noise.

Ive had a large amount of people lately telling me about reaching across the aisle and "killing them with kindness" etc.
It's like why. These people have no interest in listening or engaging with us in a good faith way. We have to advocate for ourselves
-
The people who talk about kindness are centrists. They're the same people who want compromise between the left, who want rights and protections for citizens, and the right, who want to demonize and murder people. Do not tolerate centrists.
-
yeah, anyone trying any kind of "both sides make good points" argument these days is probably someone whose personal rights are not at stake.

Don't trust anyone who wants to meet half way. Half way between "genocide" and "no genocide" is "half a genocide" which is known as genocide.
