As it turns out, the majority of the world still hates lgbt people. Might as well accept it, because it ain't going away in any of our lifetimes
This is a thing that I think a lot of leftists living in developed countries don't realize. While it's true that the left is stronger in the developing world, it's also true that a lot of them are more socially conservative in many ways and that helps them gain popular support. The leftist militants I know are pretty anti-lgbt and would be considered stupidpol types if they lived in the US, yet they managed to fight a fifty year war with the government and had strong support in the rural areas.
China is still a developing country--one that's rapidly developing--and that comes with the growing pains of cultural issues like this. They'll most likely have more favorable legislation towards lgbt people, but it's not happening overnight.

Such is life.
We shouldn't accept it, intolerance should be confronted at all costs.
At the cost of a socialist state? I'm content with knowing that I'll always be an un-person to many Chinese folks. Then again, I'm an un-person to many american folks too. Sometimes you just gotta learn when you're hated.
