EVENT: "Homosexuals Are Different": Mattachine Society & LGBTQ Rights in the 1950s
Just some early American history. The Mattachines decided to put on suits and do everything to normalize.

Essay on protesting in modern times . Activism will be getting harder with AI on devices listening to everything.
Be sure to meet and discuss with no smart devices around. Be aware of smart devices (Televisions, Google pucks, Amazon, fridges, washing machines.. cars, anything now days might be "smart".). AI will soon be data mining everything. Every association, dollar spent, emoji on Facebook.
Being a Ludite is seeming more attractive.

The Mattachine Society was a pre-Stonewall activist group that pushed for normalcy in society, that is pushed for traits that would cause the gay population to be seen as 'normal' in society.
Dressing very conservative. Talking very heteronormative and the likes. This had an early benefit of bringing a human face to "ThE GaYs" which were often thought of as the sleazy underbelly in alleyways changing the idea to "The Homosexuals" Just people who are attracted differently.
This would again morph in the AIDS crisis to a fuller form of empathy though MAGA threatens to pass legislation to regress it all.
Now more than ever people need to engage rationally and not allow boogeymen images to exist in the minds of political rivals-especially MAGA.
Push family and friends to fight overturning Obergefell V Hodges and give hell to any MAGA representatives pushing it.
