Lol, getting mad about the important things as always.

Apparently they’ve been saying the blue guy had his balls out or some shit? I didn’t see anything like that. Bro was wearing blue modesty shorts as far as I could tell.

    Being queer should be apolitical and universal. Im describing the existing reality where the struggle for lgbt rights and acceptance isnt . And im stating my opinion on whether performances in such an events a net positive in a context of the current poltical world climate and domestic movements.

    An absolute shitton of people in non western countries dont support lgbt rights and as i said this social conservativism its often 19th and 20th century colonial import. 100s of millions if not billions shouldnt be thrown in gulags for their social conservativism. Their countries should be given a chance of geniune non neoliberal economic devlopment and the social changes that comes with and the betterment of lgbt rights and acceptance movements should come from the, admittedly gradual and grueling, natural struggle of domestic organic movements and groups.

    At least thats my belief. To this end the more LGBT acceptance is conflated with western and neoliberal cultural hegemony and the more westerm capital, ngos and government pretent to be the moral crusaders of such causes on the world stage the worse in my opinion. I think i gave enough detail on how thay plays out in regard to the topic in my original comment

      They should fuck off. Same with people of other bigotries.

      “social conservatives” absolutely deserve to be put in a gulag. Fucking slimy and disgusting fuckers.

      Their countries should be given a chance of geniune non neoliberal economic devlopment

      Absolutely agree with you there.

      Being economically disadvantaged is not an excuse to be a bigot and take other people’s rights away. It’s not an excuse to be racist, or homophobic, or any other shit. Fucking examine your bigotries people. A gulag would be a nice place to give people who still hold on to those bigotries a chance :)

        Im not in the lgbt community and of you are i understand your anger and wont say you are wrong. I just think that since that social conservativism in large part has it roots both in colonialism and in the subsequent economic underdeveloped under the global imperialist western regime i cant be too vindictive towrards them as individuals. I laid out how i think things can get better and thats where my comment comes from

          No its fine, I just get pissed at social conservatives and what they have done to so many groups. It also pisses me off that now the focus is lgbt people. I don’t see people saying we should keep women or racial groups out of things, or we shouldn’t celebrate them, because what if some bigots from somewhere get pissed off. I don’t know what the actual best political strategy for winning rights is. I just fucking hate bigots, and I hate that pride is the only group people do this with.

          I’m not angry at you, just the situation. Sorry if I came off that way.

      • The majority of the world is probably what you would call social conservatives. “Maybe if we arrest enough people the problem will fix itself” is a liberal and explicitly anti-materialist viewpoint. Look at the conditions that cause bigotry, not the products of those conditions.
