Lebanon, once thought of as among the most liberal parts of the Middle East, is poised to ban global hit movie “Barbie.” More conservative Kuwait said Wednesday that it had gone ahead with a ban due to its promotion of homosexuality.
It’s disgusting that homosexuality is seen as such an abhorrent thing in this day and age. Are all humans not capable of love? If the answer is a resounding yes, then why are we stopping consenting adults from expressing this? Because of some archaic scripture from thousands of years ago? Excuse my French here, Lebanon, but kindly get to fuck.
This is exactly why the separation of church and state is supposed to exist in democracies. The zealots will continue to take away your rights until morale improves.
I’ll just mention that in the middle east the vast majority of people don’t support LGBT rights. Bringing up the separation of church and state makes no sense in this context.
They don’t support those rights cause they have been brainwashed by their religion. Maybe if religion was removed from government, that wouldn’t be the case, at least not to this extent.
Hmm, there was a country with the phrase: "In God we trust"
That phrase was added in the 1950s, as right wingers provoked the red scare.

Are you seriously whatabouting countries that regularly arrest and torture queer people for being queer?

Yes we also have to deal with religious fundamentalist. You realize that most of us are fighting them, right?
I think your number is a bit off.
Edit to reflect the true severity or the comment is getting removed for misinformation.
If you want to deny the holocaust you might wanna be a little more subtle, fascist.
BTW, holocaust denial is, as you surely know, a criminal offence in „your country“.
Now go and follow your leader.
