me i do i think it’s cool that these leaders are fighting for human rights across the gamut and i appreciate reporters that identify and celebrate this action

solidarity

in the fight for a free Palestine the “your identity would get you killed in Gaza” has been used as a pro-Israel pro-genocide weapon and erasure of of queer Palestinians. it is objectively good for queer leadership to align itself with other instances of human rights activism.

Anyone participating in this discussion in good faith

Vastly more people care about the article more than your uninformed opinion that contradicts reality

war between Israel and Palestine

Not a war. It's a genocide, and it's Israel that is perpetrating it.

Surviving the AIDS crisis, Ronald Reagan, Margaret Thatcher, “conduct unbecoming” in the military, strung up on fence posts in Wyoming, public arrests, family disenfranchisement, discrimination in housing, marriage, legal rights...just getting started

Cool. And you'll get absolutely nowhere with reactionary sentiment like "fuck you, I got mine" as a part of your movement. The people that want to allow the genocide to continue are the same people actively working to take those rights away from LGBTQ+ people, and they're not gonna let up just because reactionary twats like you think it's okay. Not to mention the fact that the rest of the LGBTQ+ community doesn't even have all of the rights you mentioned, but that's none of your concern, I'm sure.

The fact is that rights movements and struggles for social justice will continue to largely ignore backward sentiment like yours, as it is necessary for the progress of all of the groups that struggle for them and your attitude toward people other than yourself would only lead to an erosion of those rights.
