I read something somewhere that said that we're likely to enter another stonewall era. What exactly does this mean? I'm aware of the events at the Stonewall inn but don't understand the era part of it.
What does another "Stonewall Era" entail?

I see. I was guessing it meant that there would be a lot more active confrontation and resistance with the feds. That's disheartening.
It's so strange to be a young person who just became an adult to grow into this. I'm going to fight as best I can for a better tomorrow. We absolutely have to be as united as possible as a community in order to weather and fight this.

might be worth reading Susan Stryker's Transgender History
I also found Stone Butch Blues provided some useful historical context.

Criminalization of homosexuality in public via some form of indecency laws. Project 2025 calls for any queer person working in any job that could ever possibly interact with a child to be prosectued as sex criminals. It means being queer in the privacy of guarded spaces. It means a generation of people forced back into the closet.
None of this is a prediction of the future. It's just what they've told us they're going to do.
