      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.

            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.
