People are writing names of prominent drag performers on Israeli missiles aimed at Gazan civilians, an example of “pinkwashing” the IDF’s crimes against humanity. One of the famous drag performers responds, expressing her indignation that her name is being used to promote the bombing, which she vigorously opposes.

    Someday there's going to be some research that conclusively shows that pink imperialism and using LGBT rights as an excuse to kill people, has actually done massive harm to those rights and the perception of queer people. I hate liberals. They love pitting people against each other and destroying solidarity more than almost anything else.

      You don't need research, just talk to any homophobe from the global south. They'll mention "the west" quite often. Universal values, such as human rights for all LGBT people, have been undermined by this Eurocentric culturalism/"clash of cultures" ideology of rainbow imperialism.
