Georgia only just passed its Russian law, and the government has already introduced legislation targeting LGBTQ+ people. This is by no means accidental.
Like it or not, we have become a geopolitical signal. We often symbolise the 'degenerate' West – as well as opposition to it. In the world of 2024, queer folk are not seen as people, we are tools. We are international scapegoats.
And when they come for us, they're coming for democracy itself. Our freedom is everyone's freedom.

Yes.
You are correct. You are 100% correct. Well, would you mind telling me how did that happen? How did the line of semi-random letters become symbol for the worst aspects of the west?
And more importantly, why do so few gay people fight against this desecration of their reputation?
@Redfern
And yes, I know there is no way anyone from social bubble mastodon will see this, but I still write it at least for the folowers 
And get defunded by the banks and shit on by the media and canceled by big tech and called traitors to the cause by their fellow faggots and called fascists for being on the same side as Trump.

This guy has an LGBT flag in his profile.
I don't think he is fighting the stereotype.
But sure, obviously, I know some gays, who have soul.
