I don’t need anyone that watched a video of Palestinians getting burned alive tell me that they’re concerned about my rights. If a person’s concern for human rights stops at the US border they don’t care about anyones rights.
I’d argue the other way around. Saying “all lives matter” is technically agreeable at the surface level, but is more often than not said maliciously to detract from greater issues at play (police brutality).
In a similar sense, the US support for the genocide in Gaza is disgusting and needs to be stopped, but trying to throw the election to a fascist dictator shows that you’re either ignorant or malicious about the greater context (the threat a Trump presidency poses to minorities, immigrants, and women). Not to mention Trump won’t be kinder to the issue.
So in short, are you trying to throw the election out of ignorance, or out of malice?
The same people screaming about protecting LGBTQ+ rights are the same ones that are saying we need to ignore what’s going on in Gaza and around the world at the hands of the US so they can protect their own privilege. a person either is concerned about all human rights or they’re concerned about none. And as an open and out queer, you do not get to dictate what insults me, or speak on my behalf and most likely on a group of people that you are not amongst.
Palestinians are the ones under threat of life. OP post is concerned about LGBTQ rights, we are not under threat of life. Right now democrats are like the republicans in the beginning of the BLM movement. ‘What about us’ when they are not the ones getting killed.
No they aren’t the same people. That’s actual insanity. No one saying “protect lgbt+” is saying “la la la nothing is happening in Gaza”
Oh boy. I know your type. The “don’t you tell me not to be a bad person!”
You’re the type to say “All lives matter” at a BLM protest, missing the point entirely.
I’m gay. I find your attempts to take the focus away from my problems—in this thread—to be insulting. The world has lots of problems. We don’t have to focus on one at a time. We can multitask.
We are talking about lgbt. That is the topic. Stop insulting lgbt by trying to switch the topic to Gaza. I’m not overlooking Gaza. I’m capable of having two focused ideas. You are not.

“I can’t save them all so I choose to save nobody”
Very all lives matter of you.
Not really.
Yes really, it’s Palestine lives at stake, they should be the priority, not worrying about a mythical social division that it’s happening
Get this, we can fight for more than one thing at a time, even if certain things have higher priority.
Queer lives are at stake too, and it isn’t just about living.
Politicians keeping meaningless social wars active are a larger threat to our safety.

I’m not throwing anything, I’m simply pointing out that liberals have failed society in general. By focusing on bullshit issues
Weird I’ve never seen you being super judgy about people based on literally nothing before.
Way to make everything about Gaza. We all know you can’t vote anyway.
Covert bot accusation?
No, you would take a conversation about apple pie and somehow make it about Gaza.
There’s a time and a place for that, and you insult LGBT people by shifting the conversation away from them when the post is about them.

Which they should be, because they are being threatened.
This isn’t true, and is a moving the goalposts fallacy.
Are you seriously trying to compare the 2? One is getting slaughtered, the other is mostly hyperbole
Bad faith bullshit

You are saying you are gay as a race to innocence to try and defend that your attempt to overlook their rights to defend yours?
When I said ‘my rights’ it’s because I am gay.
