That’s the tragedy of it, along with the fears of the ongoing HIV pandemic. Both go back to various Western imperial designs. Sub-Saharan Africa before all that had a rich history of varied gender and sexual expression before all that was brutally destroyed.
The HIV part especially saddens me because of how the initial transmission, according to new scholarship, probably happened because of French and Belgian colonial forces consuming bushmeat during the campaign against the German forces in Cameroon during WWI.
I mean, one of the things liberal interventionists use on all fronts is queer people as political props, regardless of how tolerant the leadership actually is. We see the same with the supposedly tolerant Israelis, who also have large swaths of their electorate who are homophobic. I suppose it’s still a lazy guess on my part.
If I had to put money on it, maybe the Ukrainians are angry about Russian mercenaries being active in the region, like in Sudan?
Neoliberal fascists ( ) do oppose homophobia, but only for chauvinist reasons. They won’t give a shit about LGBT people in their own countries as long as they’re more liberal than their enemies, because that’s the end goal - liberal “free market democracy”, not freedom.
Why is Uganda there? All I know about the country is that it’s one of the most zealously homophobic countries in sub-Saharan Africa. Is that why?
The funny thing is didn’t British and American Evangelicals spread their anti-LGBT ideology there, the latter mainly after imposing IMF-style deregulation?
good read. :amerikkka:

Uganda isn’t even in Brics who fukin knows
Fascist mind noticed random memes about Uganda and since it’s African country it got automatically added to the Great Conspiracy in their mind.
Yes; clearly this person opposes homophobia
