You have laid out perfectly what I’ve been saying for a while. I personally call it “the trifecta” referring to the constant over representation of black/lgbt/female (girl power). I know they say woke is used too much but how else to describe it. Also, people know the lgbt population is small so naturally it makes sense to get annoyed with it being shoved into everything or some racial narrative constant being talked about. One thing I noticed first is the constant push for women into male dominated hobbies/interests
I was illustrating to someone what has happened to male hobbies and said it would be like taking over hallmark and making war movies or action thrillers while calling the core fanbase toxic for wanting to see romance.
Like you, I used to not mind a gay character here and there and I’ve read plenty of books with gay characters but that wasn’t the focus. If they were more in proportion to the actual population that would be different. Like you said make gay themed content for a gay audience.
I laughed out loud about he black lesbian thing because that seems to be all over
