@VividProwess Another fact here is that LGBT+ groups have different stances on the conflict. There are Jewish LGBT+ groups that say they are pro-Israel and Zionist and argue that aligning with Hamas will not serve queer liberation. So thank you for supporting the zionist LGBT+ perspective.
@VividProwess Now this guy was a real motherfucker who had definitely no intention to stop, a true menace:
Schlissel had served 10 years in prison for stabbing three people at the same Jerusalem Pride Parade in 2005. He carried out the 2015 attack just three weeks after his release.
@VividProwess Obviously, LGBT+ people don't support religious ideas that prefer to have them dead, like some Christian, Jewish or Muslim beliefs, but obviously they can protest HAMAS, Iran, Netanyahu and Trump for being terrible human rights violators where protest is due.
@smithsphone@realMaalouf Just to give you an idea of how organized it can be:
Orthodox or Haredi individuals who come out publicly often report experiencing extreme harassment, death threats, or violence from extremist "modesty squads" (Mismeret Tzniut) operating within enclosed religious neighborhoods
@smithsphone@realMaalouf This way of thinking ignores that Jewish Orthodox violence against LGBT+ exists too. Such cases aren't attributed to all Jews, but they are when it comes to Mudlims.
Moderate Christianity, Islam and Jewish belief is a direct result of secularism and seperation of state/church.
@smithsphone@realMaalouf The Tel Aviv Gay Center Shooting (2009)
A masked gunman opened fire inside the center during a weekly meeting for youth, killing two people—Liz Trubeshi (16) and Nir Katz (26)—and injuring 15 others.
@smithsphone@realMaalouf The Victim: Shira Banki, a 16-year-old Israeli high school student who attended the parade to support her LGBTQ+ friends.
The Perpetrator: Yishai Schlissel, an ultra-Orthodox man.
@smithsphone@realMaalouf Examples of Jewish violence or terror on LGBT+ groups are:
The Jerusalem Pride Stabbing (2015)
The most high-profile case of lethal violence against the LGBTQ+ community by a religious extremist occurred at the 2015 Jerusalem Pride Parade.
@PretzalMuncher@realMaalouf Same with babies.
If I don't want it, then you just kill it, or I kill you.
If I want it but you don't want it, I kill you for not wanting to have my baby.
@PretzalMuncher@realMaalouf Humans of all sorts moving around the planet?
Not unless I invade their land, enslave them, and drag them to my land forcibly, where they belong to me, but don't belong here if they don't belong to me.
