      whats funny as i reflect is that this was explicitly what pride was intended to oppose "do what you want just dont tell me about it" as an attitude was rejected I think (this is my vague recollection) because it emblemized the shame of the closethttps://twitter.com/eigenrobot/status/1411493226037477384 …

      a common and correct criticism of "ok lets pretend you dont exist" was 1. ok thats insulting 2. also thats inconvenient and a massive burden and 3. ok why the hell do straight people still get to do it then

      i can make no claims about the current absolute difficulties faced by sexual minorities in living openly but surely one can agree that whatever the level of difficulty there is uniformly less of it than existed in say the 80s

      so one thing I am wondering is the extent to which the notion of pride is no longer as useful as it may have been actually im curious are you a sexual minority; and what do you think of Pride as a useful concept now vs in the 80s

          The 80s made Pride feel uniquely powerful (RW govt, AIDS, etc.), but who falls under LGBT/queer has also changed and something like trans issues may make Pride a more useful concept now for those groups. I still fell under "less important" fwiw, but it's still a sticky issue

          where gays are still hated, pride is still relevant. where gays are *not* still hated, pride has been successfully co-opted as a Generic Civic Ritual and is never going away for *that* reason.

          being gay was more fun when it wasn't celebrated

          By the time I grew up in the 90s it was apparent that the elites had your back (likely much earlier), which already put me at ease, even with minimal gay acceptance messaging in schools or among peers

          Nowadays no actual gay man I know seems to have a personal emotional reaction to all the Pride festivities, it's just an occasion to party. All that previous sentiment is now felt vicariously through alignment with groups considered more oppressed

          Less important, but still pretty important, especially for trans people

          There's nothing left to achieve through the pride tradition. I think its mostly harmless, and am not anti-pride, but it is fully the status quo now. Moldbug's "protests are victory marches" etc.
