Nah you’re just a racist. Where is the evidence that that 98% of Islam is transphobic? The majority of Muslim people I know are pro-lgbtq, but I guess you would actually need to talk to Muslim people to know that and since you view them as beneath you I can see how that would be hard. It’s like saying all of Christianity is transphobic and that everyone who lives in red-states in the US is as well.

The Ukraine situation is entirely different. To compare the two is insane. If Ukraine murdered civilians of a specific ethnicity indiscriminately en masse, with the majority being children, I think pointing out that some of the people that they are murdering is lgbtq in response to people claiming that we should kill them or not care if they die is legitimate. This is also a popular Zionist talking point to justify their genocide and it’s so fucked up that idiots like you fall for it. It’s understandable that people who care about lgbtq-people would care about seeing people who are like them being murdered by Israel.

Also are you pulling the “I’m not a racist because Islam is not a race” card?

Nah you’re just a racist.

This is “I don’t like what the facts say so you’re a racist card” fuck off with that shit.

Where is the evidence that that 98% of Islam is transphobic?

Reading comprehension isn’t your stong suite is it? I said that Islam is a trans/homophobic religion and that 98% of Palestinians practice Islam.

The majority of Muslim people I know are pro-lgbtq, but I guess you would actually need to talk to Muslim people to know that and since you view them as beneath you I can see how that would be hard. It’s like saying all of Christianity is transphobic and that everyone who lives in red-states in the US is as well.

You really need to understand something, Islam and LGBT rights are not friends. The middle east is a dangerous and violent place for LGBT persons. This is not some made up stat. It’s a fact. Get your head out of the sand and actually do some damn research for once.

The Ukraine situation is entirely different. To compare the two is insane. If Ukraine murdered civilians of a specific ethnicity indiscriminately en masse, with the majority being children, I think pointing out that some of the people that they are murdering is lgbtq in response to people claiming that we should kill them or not care if they die is legitimate. This is also a popular Zionist talking point to justify their genocide and it’s so fucked up that idiots like you fall for it. It’s understandable that people who care about lgbtq-people would care about seeing people who are like them being murdered by Israel.

You literally called what Israel is doing as murdering LGBTQ persons, because they’re bombing indiscriminately…hence the comparison, but since you’re incapable of understanding that, you toss out insults and personal attacks.

Also are you pulling the “I’m not a racist because Islam is not a race” card?

Says the guy who backed up his facts with "I know Muslim people "…this is the same white privilege bullshit of “I have black friends”…you couldn’t come off more white privilege if you tried.

https://hexbear.net/post/2481767 Enjoy being put on display, too bad they deleted it. I know it’s really difficult for you to understand but because a place has anti-lgbtq laws doesn’t mean everyone who live there or everyone who practices the religion of that country is homophobic or transphobic. This is like really basic stuff but I can understand it can be hard for a racists to understand. It’s like saying all of the people who live in red-states in the US are transphobic because the anti-trans laws there. It doesn’t mean everyone is and it doesn’t mean everyone who lives there is transphobic. Displaying entire diverse groups of people as being a certain way, especially to justify their genocide, is actually kind of the definition of racism.

Also if a racist claims all black people are a certain way and I say “I know black people who aren’t that way” it’s not the same as saying “I have a black friend” to claim you are not racist. It’s kind of the opposite actually. The fact you don’t understand that proves how dumb you are.

You do realize hexbear was defederated from basically everything because it’s filled with tankies who are ok with russia murdering Ukrainians and iranian gov. Murdering women right? Lol I could give a fuck less what they think

I know it’s really difficult for you to understand but because a place has anti-lgbtq laws doesn’t mean everyone who live there or everyone who practices the religion of that country is homophobic or transphobic.

Yea not hard to understand, but do yourself a favor and actually go research what happens in the middle east to LGBT people, and while you’re at it, make sure you notice it’s not just the gov. Doing the killings.

This is like really basic stuff but I can understand it can be hard for a racists to understand.

You’re talking to a minority.

It’s like saying all of the people who live in red-states in the US are transphobic because the anti-trans laws there.

Yea… it’s really not, even close to that. Sure hate crimes exist in the usa, and honestly way to many, but we also don’t have laws about stoning gay persons. You’re trying to compare apples to oranges here.

It doesn’t mean everyone is and it doesn’t mean everyone who lives there is transphobic.

Sure, never said it does. That’s the issue with you and the others, you’re coming up with scenarios in your mind that I’ve never said existed.

Displaying entire diverse groups of people as being a certain way, especially to justify their genocide, is actually kind of the definition of racism.

Please please please show where I have even remotely said I support what Israel is doing… please link it.

Also if a racist claims all black people are a certain way and I say “I know black people who aren’t that way” it’s not the same as saying “I have a black friend” to claim you are not racist. It’s kind of the opposite actually. The fact you don’t understand that proves how dumb you are.

ROFL ok…

You support Israel because you’re parroting a Zionist talking about about Palestinians being transphobic and homophbic ignoring how they, like everywhere else, have an lgtbq population that is also being murdered by Israel. All you have to say is that it’s no racist to paint an entire group of people as being a certain way because Palestine is not a race. Sure that makes sense.

It’s not comparing apples to oranges, it’s the same logic. You paint an entire group of people as anti-lgbtq, even though the laws you claim don’t exist in Palestine, and extrapolate that to the entire population. Or it’s even more insane because you take examples from other countries and apply it to Palestine without actually providing any evidence for what you say is true for Palestine. Those laws don’t exist there so what is you’re logic that Palestine is homophobic? Because all of Islam is, sure that makes sense. No need to provide any evidence for it, and if you claim that they have a high transphobic population so does red-states in the US thus the comparison is valid.

I have never argued homophobia or transphobia is not a problem in Muslim countries. What you’re saying becomes a problem when you essentialize an entire group of people as being hateful. This is what racists does so it makes sense to point it out.

Please point out where I’ve stated I support Israel? Pretty sure I’ve state the opposite multiple times in this thread. And once again, you bring up an ignorant talking point, so let’s run with your logic, because there are lgbt people in Palestine it makes Israel murders to them, not murders to anyone else apparently. So by your logic, the USA for 20 years were just murdering lgbt people in Iraq and Afghanistan…

All you have to say is that it’s no racist to paint an entire group of people as being a certain way because Palestine is not a race. Sure that makes sense.

They’re not a race, are you trolling me at this point? Cause your logic is getting dumber and dumber.

It’s not comparing apples to oranges, it’s the same logic.

It really is but ok…

You paint an entire group of people as anti-lgbtq, even though the laws you claim don’t exist in Palestine, and extrapolate that to the entire population.

I’ve been saying Islam and lgbtq rights are not friends, no where have I said Palestinians are all anti-lgbtq, you have continued to suggest I have, just as you continue to say I’ve been using Zionist talking points. You also seem to lack the ability to produce any actual facts of your own, while I’ve continued to have to provide you with articles and the laws in middle east…so I’ll do it again.

It’s not hard to understand that lgbt persons cannot openly express themselves there.

Or it’s even more insane because you take examples from other countries and apply it to Palestine without actually providing any evidence for what you say is true for Palestine.

LGBTI people’s rights Authorities failed to prevent and investigate homophobic and transphobic threats and attacks. On 9 July, security forces stood by and watched as a mob beat youths and children participating in a parade organized by Ashtar Theatre in Ramallah that included rainbow flags. The attack came amid a wave of incitement to violence and hate speech against LGBTI people and feminists that the authorities failed to investigate.

In October, Ahmad Abu Murkhiyeh, a 25-year-old gay man, was found decapitated in Hebron. He had sought asylum in Israel two years prior to his murder.

Those laws don’t exist there so what is you’re logic that Palestine is homophobic? Because all of Islam is, sure that makes sense. No need to provide any evidence for it, and if you claim that they have a high transphobic population

I’ve provided the laws, I’ve provided the articles, I’ve provided everything that backs my claims, you and othets on the other hand have done nothing but toss out whataboutisms and anecdotal evidence of your claims. You clearly have zero clue what it is like in the middle east and in Islamic sharia law states.

so does red-states in the US thus the comparison is valid.

As I said more whataboutism…and our red states have plenty of homophobic and transphobic groups and they absolutely are disgusting pieces of shit for existing, but because they exist doesn’t give a pass to the middle east.

I have never argued homophobia or transphobia is not a problem in Muslim countries. What you’re saying becomes a problem when you essentialize an entire group of people as being hateful. This is what racists does so it makes sense to point it out.

Yea you have, you literally in this very post said Palestine doesn’t have any anti LGBT policies…you have continued to point out how Israel is only somehow killing LGBT people and you have continued to point out whatsboutism’s comparing our red states with the middle east.

I’ve provided plenty of evidence for my points, and you and others have done nothing but move goal posts, use anecdotal evidence, and whatsboutisms, all while calling me a racist and other personal attacks, because you’re unable to provide any sort of evidence that contradict my points.

You don’t seem to even try to respond to anything I’m saying at all so I don’t see the point of this. You’re straight up lying. You said “Palestine is not a race, and Islam is %100 transphobic and the main religion practiced there (98% of the population).” to me saying it’s racist to claim Palestinians are all transphobic. If you get to the point of having to lie to prove your point I se no point in continuing to this. Again never claimed that homophobia isn’t a problem but keep posting that straw man please. Dumb fuck.

Also you don’t seem to know what the word whataboutism means or you’re just incapable of understanding my point. I’m not saying we shouldn’t care about homophobia in middle eastern countries because it happens in republican states. I’m applying your logic to show how it doesn’t make sense. That is totally lost on you however.

It’s a common tactic by racists to claim they are not racists by saying everyone from that country is a criminal etc. and when you point out the flaw in the logic they go, but Nigeria is not a race, Islam is not a race, etc etc. It’s dumb, It’s boring and has been done to death.
