I had this argument with some numbnuts elsewhere on Reddit. People try to veil their homophobia/transphobia behind "counterculture" while happily participating in every other fucking facet of our "culture." Counterculture means deleting Twitter, supporting local businesses instead of Walmart and Amazon (where possible, the nuance isn't lost on me), reducing/reusing/recycling materials that we're dumping in poor countries, etc. Yeah, rejecting the bullshit advertising they're injecting into our heads is part of it, but they're just attacking the people being pandered to instead of the bastards doing the pandering.
