    I get all that. I'm simply disgusted with Americans pretend they get to arbitrate who is and is not LGBT-friendly, given how low we've set the bar within our own country.

      Oh yes, why I'm all for dunking on libs who think Middle Eastern countries having crap LGBT policies is a justification for bombing the fuck out of them. But yah know, can't really deny it's true that they do have crap LGBT policies and that is very much a bad thing, but Murica shoving it's imperialist dick is gonna fix fuck all with that as history has shown. Same is the case in Belarus, even if the opposition tries to act like they're more progressive on those issues we've seen how austerity in the former soviet union lead to the rise of far right reactionary groups who terrorize marginalized communities and in some cases like in poland have required actual real political power.

        If Americans gave a shit about LGBT rights, their first impulse wouldn't be to bomb the shit out of everything.

        even if the opposition tries to act like they’re more progressive on those issues we’ve seen how austerity in the former soviet union lead to the rise of far right reactionary groups

        It leads to huge recessionary economies, mass unemployment, and a collapse in industry.

        But some yahoo gets to do a victory dance with an LGBT flag, like corporate raiders gutting the interior are a blessing so long as they come in wearing correctly coded kitche.

          You’re taking a weirdly hostile tone with me considering that I’m agreeing with you.
