Ecology
gollark: I generally wouldn't agree with vaguely dishonest things like that, and I don't know if anyone actually thinks that's the goal.
gollark: I suppose if you model LGBTQ+ etc. acceptance as some sort of 1D scale ranging from "persecuted heavily" to "worshiped as gods" with "general sensible acceptance" in the middle, and we're somewhere down between "persecuted" and "acceptance", then even if the target is "general sensible acceptance" it may be more effective to... market stuff? slightly more toward the "worshiped as gods" end in order to reach the middle.
gollark: Yes.
gollark: I mean, I prefer "let's learn about some historical issues regarding [GROUP]" over "[GROUP] great, let us all praise [GROUP]".
gollark: Sorry, have been.
