Aren Posted March 24, 2023 Posted March 24, 2023 I’ll forever hate the British Empire for what they did in its African and Asian colonies. Their white supremacist and Christian fundamentalist views ruined theses countries’ native cultures that used to be more open minded and progressive compared to Europe at the time.
Femalien Posted March 24, 2023 Posted March 24, 2023 Uganda be kidding me Prayers to my gay brothers and sisters in Africa. This is an abomination unto human rights
Sheep Posted March 24, 2023 Posted March 24, 2023 I approve the death penalty for lawmakers in uganda
Jude Posted March 24, 2023 Posted March 24, 2023 This is disgusting and appalling. Are they part of the UN? If so the UN should do something about this.
family.guy123 Posted March 24, 2023 Posted March 24, 2023 Question: I see people blaming homophobia on European colonizers, but weren’t more lgbt friendly counties such as Canada and Australia also colonized ?
shinyshimmery Posted March 24, 2023 Posted March 24, 2023 aren't these the "eat da poopoo" people? they should focus on ending poverty and feeding their people over LGBT issues

In fact, they’ve been independent for almost as long as they were under British rule. Time to cut off foreign aid.

Reginald Posted March 24, 2023 Posted March 24, 2023 (edited) Also brought to you by the Chick Fil A Gays who are still giving money to a fast food company that funds Christian projects opposing LGBT rights in Africa Must be nice not caring that your dinner is supporting this Edited March 24, 2023 by Reginald
elevate Posted March 24, 2023 Posted March 24, 2023 The way every comment from that trash page is agreeing with them. These people are so miserable. I feel less sorry for them over time. They do deserve bad things to happen to them.

This framing is not necessary, although we should always remember the roll colonisation played in shaping modern cultures... These are grown, sentient, autonomous adults in 2023. There is zero blame shifting to be done...
Twilish Posted March 24, 2023 Posted March 24, 2023 Disgusting reading tweets in support of it. Saying being gay is a choice and being forced on people as if anyone would ever willingly choose to be different then what’s considered “normal” and have to live in fear in most parts of the world. The human race needs to be wiped
bliaz Posted March 24, 2023 Posted March 24, 2023 Why people hate us so much, that's something I will never understand

No. The US has been sending evangelicals missionaries to Africa. And US evangelicals are very anti LGBTQ as shown by their push with anti LGBTQ laws.

They feel disgusted when they think of us because they've been taught to; anything that differs from the norm is wrong, scary, and gross. The idea of being lgbt feels "wrong" to them, 'cause it goes against everything that they've always deemed as ideal and healthy. This is a total oversimplification but yeah, disgust is what usually leads to hatred.

Stop blaming colonialism, the issue is white American evangelists, funding and indoctrinating hate.Florida is proof of the evangelists impact but they face no opposition. Its all a-okay.

BGKC Posted March 24, 2023 Posted March 24, 2023 (edited) It’s terrible how susceptible people in poverty stricken places like these can be when it comes to outside influences like evangelicals among other hate campaigns spread by abrahamic faith groups. Children as young as 9 in Uganda already have a history of being abducted and forced to commit heinous acts against their fellow people. They’ve been faced with constant genocide for decades, yet through all of it homosexuality is still looked at the sin of all sins. What a hopeless place. My heart goes out to the LGBT groups that deserve to be free of such a bigoted and violent environment. Edited March 24, 2023 by BGKC
Harrier Posted March 24, 2023 Posted March 24, 2023 Blaming white evangelicals or colonialism is in and of itself a kind of neo-colonialist argument. Ugandans have agency and make their own choices. In this case, the political class in Uganda has chosen to be virulently homophobic, far far more than its neighbours/peers in the region. They use hatred as a distraction for their massive set of failures across the board, and their rampant corruption. Easy to make people hate the gays - harder to lift them out of poverty. Influence from American Christian fundamentalism & colonial legacies can be acknowledged. But don't make the mistake of 'blaming' this kind of thing purely on outsiders. Uganda is making its own choices and any Ugandan will tell you that.
