Ah yes, the checks notes Islamic Resistance Movement is famously progressive which it displays by imposing the Hijab in a region where it's not traditional, prohibiting women from participating in sports events and banning music festivals as Haram (even before they were murdering festival goers in Israel). I'm pretty sure they have a very reasonable position regarding homosexuality. /s

Wait, let me bombard you with 16 quintillion articles about how U.S. citizens are actually homophobic. Now that you understand your place, why exactly is homopbobia from Hamas bad? Oh, also I'm trans btw.

Yeah, like 75% of us Americans support gay marriage (though admittedly only 45% support gender-affirming care)

This sums up the actual situation gays face in Palestine, not even Israel the so-called “only gay-friendly country in the Middle East” has done anything for them (and even enables their plight)

90% of Muslims in Muslim countries are theocratic, they literally want to kill Gays.

Average Islamism Apologists anyway.

[-] goat 19 points 8 months ago

Some believe it's islamophobic to point out how the Middle East treats its queers. They're strange.

[-] [email protected] 10 points 8 months ago

I mean it is, gays have a Islamophobia because they don't want to be killed. I think thats like arachnophobia...

A phobia is a fear after all.

[-] [email protected] 10 points 8 months ago

Hey now, it's not just LGBT. It's also:

Christians.

Atheists.

Women who don't wear the right hats.

Jews.

The wrong type of Muslims...

[-] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

I’m vividly aware of that second one, as an atheist. On social media I’ve seen posts by atheists who were once Muslim, they told such depressing stories of hiding, of trying to save up to move to Western Europe or North America. Gays too, and for them it’s even harder since all it takes is hungrily eyeing one cute guy by mistake for the game to be up as they prepare to run. And in college I once met a gay from Saudi Arabia who quietly deconverted (became an atheist) from Islam and later escaped to the US using that university (hopefully he has citizenship, a green card or something), I once overheard him talking about how scared he felt around followers of his former faith.

Yeah I wish we'd drop the whole phobia thing and just call them bigots.

It makes them sound like a victim when in fact they are creating victims by being a giant piece of shit.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

The Muslims would be the bigots in that case...

You cant call gays bigots for not wanting to be killed... And they aren't the assholes in that situation either way.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

Not all Muslims are homophobic.

Hating someone because of their religion while ignoring their personal beliefs/interpretation is bigoted.

Homophobic people are very clearly bigoted.

These people live in a fantasy world

[-] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago

No, they live in our world sadly (you instance admins are amongst them btw...)

Look into the sidebar, knowing such wording they will ban you for saying you don't like Muslim terrorists killing Jews. At best with "Genocide denial" or "both siding genocide" as reason, or just without reason.

They literally deleted my account for having a account on another instance they don't like.

[-] goat 5 points 8 months ago

Sorry where is this? I don't see any of it on dbzer0

[-] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago

Ok, i might have misread the modlog and it was a ban on Lemmyml...

(oopsy doopsy)

The modlog is awful...

[-] goat 5 points 8 months ago

It's okay. Fun fact, the Lemmy Developers (admins of lemmyml and lemmygrad), have this community specifically banned. No other community on any other instance has this sort of treatment :)

[-] [email protected] 4 points 8 months ago

I know, they literally implemented a feature asked for by many instance admins and keep it for themselves... They are assholes. The .ml bubble in general is a shitshow and lemmy world sucks their dicks as well...

[-] goat 3 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

The devs will crash themselves soon. They hate how LIBERAL their precious lemmy has become.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago

Eh, since its open development i don't see much of a problem, the most of it is already done by others.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago

What do honor killings mean?

[-] [email protected] 6 points 8 months ago

Killing, typically women, for bringing 'dishonor' on the family. Such as through adultery, religious conversion, general non-conforming behavior, etc.

[-] goat 2 points 8 months ago

oh, but have you considered that uhhhh... bbc fake because something something
