Not the first time i have observed this as well as transphobia being used as a cudgel on anti america twitter. Sucks tbh when america basically invented violent homophobia in its modern incarnation

Stability and prosperity are the best things for making cultures more accepting of queer people, and really anyone who lives counter to social norms. It’s a trend that’s pretty easily observed throughout history. So yeah the rich stable global north countries have a better track record with gay rights than the exploited destabilized global south. The handful of AES states have have managed to stabilize and prosper did begin to improve on that front, slower than they should have but they did improve. It’s nothing “unique” to American culture, it’s just that having a comfy life with lots of treats makes you less likely to give a fuck if your neighbor is gay or trans.

So the inevitable collapse is going to lead to even more suffering for our LGBTQ population? What can we do to circumvent that?

Create post

It’s the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances’ admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
