People who say things like this are erasing all the LGBTQIA+ people in Palestine; but even if there were somehow no queer people there (impossible), nothing excuses a genocide.

I saw a map with comments by LGBTQIA+ Palestinian people. I think I saved it, I'll see if I can find and post it here.

Edit: Found it.

From queering the map.

Thanks for sharing this, I wasn't aware of its existence. I wish it had an (optional) app though; for some reason it loads very slowly on my phone.

It loads very slowly on my desktop PC as well. I suspect it ended up getting more volume than anticipated.

Absolutely heartbreaking...
