I tried this.
20-30 years ago, the message was "tolerance". Frankly, I couldn't care less about LGBTQXYZ, so that was pretty simple. "Live and let live", more or less, was my motto.
Somewhere in the early 2000's that message morphed into "Acceptance", as in, "We would like you to accept what we do as normal. You don't need to, but we'd like that." Frankly, I tried ignoring them (like you suggested). After all, what they were up to didn't really affect me, so I didn't care much.
Finally, during the Obama years, the message morphed into a "Forced Acceptance / Celebration", as in, "You will accept everything that we do with our lives into your life, even if it conflicts with your core beliefs. You will give us access to your children, so that we can teach them our beliefs and turn them against you. You *will* do all this, or we will ruin you, your careers, your livelihoods, your families. For no other reason, than because we can."
Arrogance such as this led to DJT being elected. Unfortunately, I'm not sure that we'll be able to back away from the edge, too far. Prosecutions for "anti-gay" (read: Christian) behavior may stop, and public shaming for someone with an "anti-gay" (read: not celebrating the lifestyle enough) attitude may go away, but the ground has already been gained, and won't be lost easily.
I blame myself, a little, but also realize it would have been similar to trying to stop a tornado - all you can do is wait for it to be over, protect yourself and your loved ones, and help clean up all of the damage afterwards.
While you're in the cellar, consider how certain natural facts can be used to obstruct their agenda...
Natural Selection selected Sex, the genetic exchange between MALE and FEMALE, because it increases the fitness of species; and what LGBTQWhateverists have select isn't Sex - but the worship of themselves and the abomination of nature.
