The data does not support that. Support for interracial marriage steadily increased over time. Support for trans issues, i.e. are transwomen women, gender affirming care (both surgery & HRT), etc. have collapsed as people move from a low-information to medium-information state, even among Democrats👍
The image shows a line graph from Gallup tracking public approval in the United States for marriage between Black people and White people from 1958 to 2021.Here are the key takeaways from the data:Massive Shift: Approval grew from just 4% in 1958 to 94% in 2021.The Turning Point: The approval rate crossed the majority threshold (over 50%) for the first time in the late 1990s, sitting at 48% in 1995 and rising to 64% by 1997.Wording Changes: The note at the bottom details how Gallup's poll question wording evolved over time to reflect changing language norms (e.g., using "white and colored people" in 1958, "whites and nonwhites" from 1968–1978, and later updating to "Black people and White people"). https://news.gallup.com/poll/354638/approval-interracial-marriage-new-high.aspx The image displays public opinion survey data from February 2026 regarding various transgender policy issues in the United States.
