    It’s glossed over because the entire LGBTQ+ community weren’t seen as valid to the Christian anglosphere, and neither were the gypsies or disabled really. This is at the time when sodomy was illegal in most of the west — you could be fired or arrested for being presumed gay — immigrants, the disabled, and poor were all completely ignored, and the majority couldn’t have cared less.

    Not a whole lot has really changed sadly.
