“But “israel” has Pride!” Running the circuit in occupied Tal ar-Rabeea doesn’t mean it’s safe for Queer people everywhere, doesn’t mean the colony actually respects or cares for Queer people. You can’t pinkwash genocide, no matter how hard you try.

Oh, without a doubt. But hey, there’s pride once a year in the biggest and most leftist part of the colony, so that means everything is okay! /s

Basically how the colony says “look, we have pride! Even though we hate queer people and love murdering brown kids!”
