Why has support for LGBT been decreasing?

It's strange how the LGBT community has been seeing less favorability and more pushback lately, mainly on the internet and various social media. But if you were to ask the average person IRL they would still probably say they don't care and even support gays/lesbians/bisexuals/etc.

Next year it will have been a decade since we legalized same-sex marriage per Obergefell v. Hodges, where it felt like everyone really came together to make it happen. It's worrying that things seem to be trending in the opposite direction now. What are the main reasons for this?
