No, we are not. Sorry but protests outside of LGBTQ+ rights do NOT belong here. Whether you agree or not. Sorry.

Did you read the article?

No, we are not.

The article describes multiple queer activists and groups supporting BDS as a component of Pride.

The article also describes the direct link between BDS and Pride.

Because I am an old man and I know what it took to get to where we are today. And watching other unrelated “movements “ try to latch onto gay pride as something to do with it is something quite disingenuous and sickening really.

some of these movements you deride are as old as or older than you, and all of them have been mutually beneficial.

the “disingenuous and sickening” position is yours, unfortunately. i don’t have the resources to help you through this but i hope you can start to learn from this conversation.

I hope you can learn from someone also.
