    You don’t seem to even try to respond to anything I’m saying at all so I don’t see the point of this. You’re straight up lying. You said “Palestine is not a race, and Islam is %100 transphobic and the main religion practiced there (98% of the population).” to me saying it’s racist to claim Palestinians are all transphobic. If you get to the point of having to lie to prove your point I se no point in continuing to this. Again never claimed that homophobia isn’t a problem but keep posting that straw man please. Dumb fuck.

    Also you don’t seem to know what the word whataboutism means or you’re just incapable of understanding my point. I’m not saying we shouldn’t care about homophobia in middle eastern countries because it happens in republican states. I’m applying your logic to show how it doesn’t make sense. That is totally lost on you however.

    It’s a common tactic by racists to claim they are not racists by saying everyone from that country is a criminal etc. and when you point out the flaw in the logic they go, but Nigeria is not a race, Islam is not a race, etc etc. It’s dumb, It’s boring and has been done to death.

      Uhh this entire thread of comments have been about people saying that Palestine is completely fine for the LGBT community…learn to read and then learn to understand what you’re reading.

      Naa it’s not lost on me champ, that’s a perfect example of whataboutism…like definition perfect. I’ve pointed out multiple times in this chain of comments to multiple people that Palestine is not a LGBT friendly place and that Islam is not a friend to the LGBT community, and ehat I’ve been getting back is “well the christians in the USA are homophobic too”… that’s whataboutism.

      Lol sure thing champ. You keep trying to understand what they adults are talking about, so far it’s been ignorance and dribble.
