Nearly 30% of Gen Z identifies as LGBT
What can we do to get those numbers up to 50 percent?

This is pure indoctrination. How can I say this? Before, they wouldn't "identify as" straight, they wouldn't "identify as" at all. They wouldn't even think of doing something like that. This is regardless of sexual preferences etc.

Not having stupid laws against it.

It should be pushed harder in schools and in the media. Make it appear trendy. Those who come out should be deemed brave, praise-worthy, and intellectually sophisticated. Give those identifying as LGBT+ tax breaks.
Make the message clear. LGBT good. Expanding LGBT good. LGBT is preferred.

I think it's only around 2%, with the remainder either "undecided" or "anarchistic commune."

And, I cite the same source as you!

We need to show people over 18 it's ok to let loose and be themselves.

Yeah, well, good luck getting hired by anybody going around being yourself. "Actions have consequences" as they say. The consequences of being yourself are getting completely rejected if you're a little queer, in one way or another.

Like Florida. They keep making new laws daily against it.

I live in Upper Gwynedd, PA and there are diverse people everywhere. The deli near me employs 2 femboys, and several gay men. My neighbor is a transgirl. The gigantic supermarket near me employs over 60+ LGBT people and they're proud of it. In my neighborhood, employers get sued if they don't welcome you with open arms.

"Gen Z adults, along with millennials, were also more likely to identify as LGBTQ than Republican, the survey found."

^Is this another "poor kids are just as bright and talented as white kids" moment?

No, just showing that the LGBTQ "community" is entirely politically driven, and more about dividing people on wedge issues than anything else.
How is anyone taking this obvious bait?

I mean here's use straight dudes that can just walk into a bar with our mini-skirts and leggings without a single judgement or rejection from polite society. Everyone has to hold back aspects of themselves in different environments, it is normal and happens in every aspect of our lives.

That requires you to not celebrate and favoritize one group as special or worthy of consideration when you dont give exactly equal praise to all other potential options. if you celebrate being not-straight then the straight people dont get to let loose without losing social relevance and consideration / status. you can't treat one group as special and then expect people to not fall into wanting to be in the special group with special social rights
