    When it comes to pinkwashing racism, there's always this disturbing binary of "white gay people who minorities and immigrants would kill" and "minorities and immigrants who would kill white gay people" being endorsed by these people. The awful people who promote this never consider that queer BIPOC, Muslims, immigrants, etc. exist. That's why it has always personally concerned me when I see racist white gays supporting the far-right because they have this flawed mentality that your average non-white person is more dangerous than even the most reactionary whites. Funnily enough, that excuse shrivels up when they have to factor in how I, as a black queer person, would live under the subjugation of their "ideal"fascist society.

      Yep every gay US student depicted in the intolerable "Israeli SNL" sketches on campus protests just happened to be white with dyed hair. If they had some POC queer people in the sketch it would undercut the "privilege" and "out of touch" angle they attacked the campus protestors from.
