    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.

          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.

            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.

              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.

                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.

                  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.
