I see what you mean, but people used to be angry about women not having the right to vote or the vietnam war. Getting outraged over grammar issues or bathroom policy is kinda new.
Again, it depends where. There's plenty of people in the world facing war, slavery, and so on.
But if I was to assume that you are talking about the US, both gender and racial discrimination around bathroom policies has been a hot discussion topic on-and-off for more than a hundred years.
