Max,
Just to be clear, my OP wasn't about LGBTQ+ -ism (is it okay to express it this way?), I am ambivalent about it. My post was about the flaunting of it in the face of Christianity at the Olympic Games opening ceremonies. On the one hand, like yourself, it's not my place to intrude on others lives, but on the other hand, I feel others should respect the same about my life. I support their cause in the sense that I support freedom for people to act, and love, and be as they wish. I object to their cause when 'some' try to shove it down my throat. But I think you knew all this (hopefully) from my opening paragraph in the OP.
I agree with much of what you say at the end of your reply. I'm not sure I agree with the 'need' for the MSM to "fix" anything; they have done more than enough damage to this country and the world at large. The MSM has no interest in "fixing" anything, anything at all. If they can inflame it, or make it worse, they most assuredly will...for selfish reasons. Their interests are only served by sensationalism, conflict and doom-porn; this gets clicks, and it sells advertisements, without which these mercenaries, ambulance chasers, and purveyors of evil would cease to exist. Clearly, I have no love loss for the media (MSM, or other).
I write this reply not to take issue with what you wrote, but to applaud it for the most part. The only correction, or advice, I would offer is...it is my feeling you have every right to fully express your opinion (in my opinion). There is no shame in that; it is the fabric from which true freedom is cut.
I appreciate your thoughts and your input.
