The tide is shifting in the pioneer country of marriage equality, but the fight isn't over. 🇳🇱 Even in the country that first legalized same-sex marriage 25 years ago, Dutch Prime Minister Rob Jetten is raising the alarm: acceptance among younger generations is slipping, and anti-LGBTQ+ pushback is showing up everywhere from comment sections to street corners.
