    I’m mad at you because what you’re saying is fucked up, yes. I’m just asking you to show basic empathy for another human being.

    You’ve clearly never talked to a queer person in the EU if you think they aren’t marginalized. Now you’re just denying oppression.

      You really don’t know what you’re talking about. But that’s fine, go on.

      I am saying that Qatar is not comparable to EU. And if you refuse to see that, then you’re part of the problem. How many EU countries can you name in which being gay is punished with death? If you really think that queer people is oppressed the same way in a democratic civilised country than it is in an autocratic regime as the one of Qatar, you are just denying any kind of progress, and hurting queer people more than helping them. You should be ashamed of even considering that.

      You look like someone looking for enemies, and that’s only going to hurt yourself, not me.

        “Uppity faggots are just trolls!” wow I feel like I’m back in 2018. It’s not working, nobody’s falling for your bullshit.

        I love how you just compared a gay man who was tortured for being gay to a racist man with a racist sign. You would be less offensive if you just called us faggots.

          I love how you think it is okay to make the snap judgment the person as being a racist but cannot seem to see how that is hypocritical.

          If you understood the reference you’d have known the character was anything but racist.

          It’s not even about the racism. It’s the decision to be so obviously racist in an environment that is understood by everyone to be lethally hostile to racists.

                  You realize ofc that by thinking my Socratic answer victim blames that it proves you understand the victim does bear some fault for their unfortunate treatment? Being insulting isn’t going to hide that you lost. Show some civility lest you get no sympathy for the consequences of your rudeness (as poetic as that might be).
