So ease back and it all will work out. Give it a few more years. We’ve come so far, maybe it is time to just sit down for a while and smell the flowers.

This attitude is acceptable when you're talking about something that is purely a matter of preference. I could say that to someone who tells me "Oh, it sucks that I can't eat out at 99% of restaurants, because I only eat biodynamic food, and nobody knows wtf I'm talking about with my weird dietary questions."

When it comes to something inherent to people, which cannot be changed and causes them to face discrimination, I find this take to be naïve, at best, and entirely ignorant and dangerous, at worst. At every turn, there are people actively trying to strip women, minorities and LGBTQ+ people of their rights in spite of active pushes to ensure they don't lose their rights and can enjoy equality with everyone else. I find it rather callous to suggest that members of these groups should just chill out and hope for the best in a few years while they face potentially existential threats from complacency.
