Yeah nobody's messing with them if I have something to say about it
I considered a lot of Muslims, Jews and Christian as Comrads. But we are all aware that there are contradictions in the different kinds of beliefs with our common praxis between what one thinks and how one must act toward LGBTQI+ (specifically).
The way we think of someone influences the way we act, if a father don't like his kid, no matter how hard he tries not to, he still risks to hurt him because of that, mentally or physically, big time or just a little.
That's why we must all be very careful with our biases. As a man, I'm now very careful with the way I talk to women or a racialized person, and a person who do not like LGBTQI+ internally, must be really careful how they treat them as well.
Your point is that being pro LGBT doesn't mean being leftist, to illustrate this you use Macron and Israel as examples, but then say they aren't actually pro LGBT?
No. I implied two things:
- Being pro-LGBTQI+ is not enough to be leftist. We also need to be AT THE VERY LEAST anticapitalist, antiableist, ally to feminism, anticolonialist etc.. Being leftist is understanding how the world works (at least in the big lines) and fighting people who run the current systems of dominations.
- Saying we are pro-LGBTQI+ doesn't mean we are leftist and doesn't mean we are pro-LGBTQI+ to begin with.
