Ah yes, the checks notes Islamic Resistance Movement is famously progressive which it displays by imposing the Hijab in a region where it’s not traditional, prohibiting women from participating in sports events and banning music festivals as Haram (even before they were murdering festival goers in Israel). I’m pretty sure they have a very reasonable position regarding homosexuality. /s
Wait, let me bombard you with 16 quintillion articles about how U.S. citizens are actually homophobic. Now that you understand your place, why exactly is homopbobia from Hamas bad? Oh, also I’m trans btw.

“You only think Muslims are homophobic because you haven’t read enough Lenin. Hold on my mom needs to use the computer”

Yeah, like 75% of us Americans support gay marriage (though admittedly only 45% support gender-affirming care)
90% of Muslims in Muslim countries are theocratic, they literally want to kill Gays.
Average Islamism Apologists anyway.
Some believe it’s islamophobic to point out how the Middle East treats its queers. They’re strange.
I mean it is, gays have a Islamophobia because they don’t want to be killed. I think thats like arachnophobia…
A phobia is a fear after all.
Hey now, it’s not just LGBT. It’s also:
Christians.
Atheists.
Women who don’t wear the right hats.
Jews.
The wrong type of Muslims…
I’m vividly aware of that second one, as an atheist. On social media I’ve seen posts by atheists who were once Muslim, they told such depressing stories of hiding, of trying to save up to move to Western Europe or North America. Gays too, and for them it’s even harder since all it takes is hungrily eyeing one cute guy by mistake for the game to be up as they prepare to run. And in college I once met a gay from Saudi Arabia who quietly deconverted (became an atheist) from Islam and later escaped to the US using that university (hopefully he has citizenship, a green card or something), I once overheard him talking about how scared he felt around followers of his former faith.
They actually believe that?!
yeah
