Is it that people have grown somewhat intolerant to diversity nowadays, despite we're fighting for the rights of all and of all differences

But somehow it feels people have grown entitled and they are like, nah, when they see the first trouble or difference, like we turned up the volume on talking about embracing diversity and we kind of in actuality became less forgiving?

Or maybe I am still young to be able to see what was happening few decades back? Maybe it is my impression?

Exactly what Scroff said but to add to it.

The 90's and esrly 2000s hit a peak so far ln exceptance. Uts way worse now than it was in that breif period. Around that same time though several broadcast companies started blasting the screens and airwaves with jusy foul pot stirring for the religious and conservative right to latch onto. Especially AM radio but also cable, the two main lifelines of rural America where other news outlets and more importantly newspapers were severly lacking. These "pundits" riled them up into conspiracies that the aky was falling and the cities were burning and coming for wverything they had. Now we're at the crest of their paranoia and all tjeir kids who grew up listening to that garbage and hesring their heratric parents blame the world for their shitty lives are in the voting booths.
