Or the same mfs when they're trans in Italy

This one was a bit harder to find a gotcha for because practically all European countries had decriminalised homosexuality by the 60's - Some of them twice! Due to i-am-adolf-hitler

Funnily enough homosexuality has been decriminalised in Turkey since the late 1800's (according to NATOpedia)
This map doesn't really show the continued persecution and is a bit more vague, but I dunno this is almost just a shit post anyway.

Cuba has the most progressive LGBTQ laws around, can Cuba just nuke most of Europe? (Yes, but not just because of da gays)

    How the fuck do trans people in the uk have "Broad protection from discrimination"?? A transgender minor was murdered here and it wasn't considered a hate crime, the government is considering outlawing education about trans people in schools, it's illegal to distribute puberty blockers, all of the national gender clinics have been closed, and the most famous person in the country spends all her life advocating for our extermination

      This map is labeled "LGB" with the "T" dropped. The map would probably look worse if those stats were added.

      I'm not the brightest, it's in the link 😅

          It's bullshit.

          It's basically "if a trans person gets beaten up, the courts would actually treat that as a hate crime" and that's it.

          Fuck all else. Good luck getting protection from workplace, landlord, healthcare or other discriminations.

          Having a legal protection that lets you colour in a map a certain way does not actually translate into realworld protection.
