Homosexuals were 'a bit offensive' less than a few decades ago.

Should they have moved somewhere else too?

Every place is going to have a combination of things you agree and disagree with. There isn't a utopia for each person to relocate to, I hope that's obvious.

Regarding what's offensive to 'most of the country' - feel free to link me to the polls you looked at to arrive at this conclusion.

You need to preface every criticism of the USA with "I love America and it's the greatest country in the world, but...".

Sure, but I guess it depends on how slippery the slope is, and how fast you want to test the slipperiness.

Is gender-reassignment surgery for kids offensive today? Is sexualizing kids using LGBTQ slant on media such as Netflix and Disney offensive today?

One door leads to the others, down and down we go.
