      A way to try to discourage leftist criticism of Israel’s actions is to appeal to Israel being the only country in the middle east that somewhat recognises queer people and their rights.

        That should only work on people capable of a single thought.

        I want Israel to fuck off and pay for their crimes.

        I want LGBTQ rights everywhere, and those that impede them should be deposed and, depending on their actions, charged with crimes.

        If the current leaders of Gaza do not respect the rights of all humans, they should be removed. This has nothing to do with the ongoing invasion and bombings from Israel, they are separate thoughts.

      I’m not sure. But this might be the answer to the question “British or Gay?”. Maybe we colonized the UK and are only now able to answer the question with “Yes, both.”

      The “unnoticed” part is what I balk at:

      They’d be the flamboyantest army around, wouldn’t they??
