Just wanted to inform you that your vocabulary is flawed. Homosexuality is a minority, not an abnormality. Homosexuality is completely normal among pretty most intelligent mammals on this planet.
It’s like 40% in those under 18 because of social pressures from the LGBTQ community. And less than 1% in those over like…50 or something…
It’s because they’re represented far greater than is proportional for their community.
Like, you’ll never see a dark black person on TV, or almost any Asian people. But guaranteed there will be a VERY light skinned black person, and someone who’s gay at the very least. Almost never any hispanic people in our television either.
Because that 4.5% of the population is deserving of the same human rights as anyone else, and when they are denied those rights, they are more susceptible to abuse and suicide.
People have not stopped talking about queer rights, because nothing has changed for the better, except for symbolic things like marriage which do nothing to improve actual quality of life.
As for malnutrition, why do you think food assistance programs exist? While it may not be under a political spotlight, food security is indeed a relevant current issue. Just because you haven’t read about it recently doesn’t mean it’s being ignored.
You should try to understand the limits of your own perspective.

RTFA. They accounted for that. This is about rates of homeownership.
The article makes it clear that it’s proportional, not absolute.
But what do I know, I’m just a “minority biological abnormality” apparently
bad title, the actual article is talking about the percentage of each that own homes, not expecting half of all homes to be owned by LGBTQ people

paragraph 4 in the article states how they corrected for this.
It’s actually lower than 10%. I had always commonly heard 10% and was shocked to learn that it’s more like 4.5%.

Also, define “woke hype”.
Woh now that’s logical thinking we can’t have logic, we must be up in arms over this.
In b4 delete chain…can’t have logic on Lemmy.
