    You are in a thread that started with a 1 day old account JAQing off about how transphobic Palestine is on a post about Palestinians campaigning for LGBT rights. If you don’t see that the purpose of that comment is to legitimize violence against Palestine I can’t help you.

      If that’s the case then OP is an enormous jackass. That still doesn’t change the fact that queer Palestinians are absolutely being oppressed in their country (or what should be a country) and this is too often swept under the rug.

                Wow yeah, if you divorce everything from context and just say that they’re having “difficulty” then yes, that is true, because it means essentially nothing. But you want to conflate the difficulty they’re actually having (living in a place with violent religious bigots) with leftists not talking enough about how bigoted Palestine is. That is not what’s causing them difficulties.

                The comments writing off entire regions of the world as bigoted (including the southern US!) don’t help anyone there, and it’s little more than a thought terminating cliche.
