    the islamophobia is not really necessary considering right wing governments in a large portion of europe, australia, the us, and canada (the opposition in this case) are all pushing laws criminalising trans and gay people…

      But are they chanting “throw the poof off the roof”? Are they willing to take the ultimate step of murdering someone for wanting the love of someone with the same parts as them? Yeah homosexuality is illegal in much of the world and was in most of Europe (even as late as the 60s but to the best of my knowledge, never punishable by death. Yeah Alan Turing went to jail for being gay, and that is inexcusably shitty, but there are different shades of shit.

        most of those countries are literally trying to eradicate trans people from existence by criminalising medical care…
