They actually largely came about because people protested and demanded to be heard.
Ignoring that your statements are optimistic at best. Some gay people are accepted into mainstream society. Anti-war activists absolutely have recently still been considered terrorists. Hell, anti-RACISM activists are actively being called terrorists by the government right now which goes to the next thing, which is that segregation as a legal concept has ended but turning neighbourhoods white is still absolutely a thing.
You are conflating anti-war protesters in a prior post who protested drafts that affected all young adults through peaceful civil disobedience to anti-racism protesters who by and large protest through destructive violent and disruptive tactics against police brutality which hasn’t been proven to be overtly racist as a whole group. Overall, it sounds like you are fairly angry at the current situation and I recommend stepping back and perhaps listening to various viewpoints on the matters you feel strongly about.

You have revealed yourself too early. Disinformation requires more finesse.
