    Bold of them to assume that the people cheering were queers and not cishet tourists tbh. There's a fuckton of those, you learn about it if you try to talk to people at big events like this

      Sadly there are a lot of queers who could not give less of a shit about Palestine as long as they get theirs.

        There is no LGBT rights until there are Palestinian rights. As long as any one minority group can be oppressed, any minority group can be oppressed.

        If only there was a way to thunk that through all these thick skulls.

          This is what matters. I was a "cishet" ally for years until I found out I wasn't het and until I found out being cis is silly

          Is it possible to remain "cishet" eternally? I kinda like a little gay sex but I don't want to appropriate bi culture because society totally sees me as het

            Yeah but society's homophobic as fuck and claiming you can't be bi because your in (or have only had) straight relationships is one of its ways of erasing queer attraction. If you like a little bit of gay alongside your straight no one here will gatekeep you from describing yourself as bi. Society calls me a man - doesn't mean I am one.
