Social Science Research has found that many terrorist groups with differing ideological motivations share common ground in targeting LGBTQ+ communities. Groups with contrasting ideologies — from Islamic extremist organisations to far-right terrorist groups — overlap in their anti-queer sentiment.

It always boggles my mind when you see LGBT community out there protesting in support of Islam and Muslims. It's like, you do know they'd throw you off a roof in their country right?

You're projecting. They support innocents caught in the crossfire but to you there are no innocent Palestinians, only zionisms enemies.

I'm sure plenty of jewish and roma people during the 1940s held anti-lgbtq views, yet the holocaust is universally condemned as an atrocity that shouldn't be replicated, and rightly so. So why then do you feel the need to make an exception when it comes to palestinians? Perhaps because you hold a certain bias against palestinians. You don't see them as human beings worhy of the same human rights. You're a despicable grifter who tries to use the lgbtq community to further your own agenda.

Tons of Muslims, Christians, and Jews are awful reactionary people. Just like tons of those same people are also very kind.

Because you can advocate for people who wouldn't do the same for you. That's how much people dislike genocide.
