dude the entire point is that there ARE numerous injustices done against them
have you listened to a word we've said
Listened to many things. Most of it is vague and wishy washy.
From where I sit the gay alphabet soup crowd is sitting pretty.
While I would say marriage is a stupid idea and I would rather the government leave it with as much legal status as a child's pinky promise then some flavour of it has been recognised for years (though I would agree civil union was sub par in a few ways, and the older ones of power of attorney and wills and whatnot were not ideal), and the final thing of it being called government marriage has been done for some years now and under no threat that I can see.
If I as a business wonk was to fire you, refuse to hire you, refuse to sell you/rent you my house, abuse you or similar then I would get a slap. Quite OK with that one, and does not look to be under any threat.
Ditto education types.
If crimes happen to people in such crowds then they get investigated rather than swept under the rug a la the 40s through 60s.
Such crowds seem to be able to run for political office, and make it.
Such crowds seem to be able to get the same government assistance programs and jobs in the government.
What passes for healthcare in the US seems fairly agreeable here if
https://www.healthcare.gov/transgender-health-care/ is to be believed. Not as nice as some places but hardly a horror show.
Gendered toilets seems to be a thing brought up, however actual arrests, never mind prosecutions that go anywhere/convictions, seem few on the ground. To that end sure get rid of the stupid legacy and unenforced law, as far as it being a great injustice then... harder sell there.
The university stuff seemed like a needed shake up of the law with the "I don't exist" set largely being hyperbolic at very best from what I saw.
So yeah I am back to give me nice examples of things done, not done, slowed, deliberately poorly implemented or similar that had net results (or maybe would have had they not been smacked down by a court looking at the whole equal under the law thing) that can be reasonably attributed to the colour of the tie worn by the current el presidente or indeed state government if it is one of those places where things oscillate between the various parties (granted California, very much not a right wing state, seemed to need to get a racist law change smacked down so I guess there is that). Something that would have it make real sense to keep a finger on the pulse of the politics of the country or the area for the sake of your well being, as opposed to doing a bit of a side hustle, putting some more time in your main hustle, learning something, spending time with friends/family, exercising, doing a hobby or similar. The sort of thing that might see someone not pick an area to live/stay if they grew up there, or up sticks and move, on that basis if the other mob gets in rather than them being piss poor at economics or something.
Such things can happen -- the situation with abortion being made a legally difficult as possible in those places that variously lean religious right wing for no great reason other than being something of an end run around firm legal interpretation/standard handed down from the supreme court. As far as something like it befalling any flavour of minority, much less the gay alphabet soup lot, I am still at a loss.
I saw a list of executive orders discussed earlier. Something like that but for examples in this would do in the absence of some nice research for a starting point. If I go looking at outcomes I don't really see a notable variation, if I go looking at access to services/positions I don't see it... at this point it almost feels like trying to prove a negative, however absence of proof is not proof of absence so I once more ask.
From where I sit if the US has an equality problem it is not a minorities issue (be it race, sex, whether you don't care about going for a roll in the hay, whether you like to fumble matching genitals or wish you had the opposite flavour of them) but a financial one -- rarely is your life hard because you are a minority as much as because you are poor and upward mobility is harder than it might be elsewhere. I would much rather funds, resources and efforts be put into fighting poverty than fighting perceived slights against minorities, most of which I would say are imaginary or miscategorising the situation at very best and thus most efforts towards it are burning money spinning wheels and chasing ghosts of people long dead. Politicos changing has little effect here either, whether they would get you hooked on handouts or rip the rug out from under them (the abilities for either to come to the fore also being minimal), which is also where I was at the start -- whinge down the pub or online about politicos if you want but one changing makes little difference to you, you doing something that improves your lot in life for you (see earlier list) likely to be a far more useful use of time and thus back to the earlier thing politics can safely be ignored or treated as mere entertainment unless it is your job or something.
