More of this please!
The same should happen at Pride events in the US/UK too really, given the west’s unending support for the Israeli regime, (inc $38billion of military aid from Obama).... and given our destruction of Yemen, occupation and arming of head-choppers in Syria, meddling in Latin America, etc.
If we’re going to stand up for the oppressed - which is what Pride is meant to be about, right? - then surely that needs to include all the millions of victims of our government’s foreign interventions (including many, many LGBTs)? How can we ignore all these people killed, maimed and displaced by our wars for oil and Empire?
Seems to me that ID Politics has been exploited by the elite to keep us divided and distracted, and it’s made us lose all sense of rationality.
Let’s care for all humanity and not just our own kind! Let’s combine Pride with an anti-imperialism movement!
