I saw a conversation here where someone thought homophobia wasn't that bad in the 90s.

I had someone else say they didn't remember any anti-Japanese racism in Australia in the 90s. I being on the receiving end of it would remember it pretty strongly, but to forget it entirely?

Just really poor memory

(History? I guess this is history subbear. Given how much people seem to misinterpret events happening now, what does that say about writing of events at the tim?)

All of the arguments given to try to get me to hate trans people ... were first pounded into my brain when I was a kid in the 80's/90's, but they were aimed at gay people then.

The bullying, the physical violence, the murder... all were there to.
