Judging by the fact that we are still debating about genders, biology, pronouns, declinations, sports, bathrooms and so on, society at large has not figured it out yet imo.
A vocal minority hasn’t, true. I just don’t think people should really bother wasting their effort trying to squeeze blood from a stone. Racism is still a thing, but the people who are still racist aren’t really going to be convinced by logic. If you feel it’s worth the effort then more power to you.
I get it though. I’m a cis man, and I have spent way too much emotional energy trying to convince people who won’t be convinced on this, and it doesn’t even effect my life. I can imagine it must feel more urgent for someone who is effected by them to try. I’ve just personally come to accept that it’s hopeless for some people and energy is better spent elsewhere. It’s not worth hurting your own mental health over these people, in my opinion.
Society has figured it out. You’ll never be able to convince everyone though. The best that can be hoped for is that they just aren’t assholes.
