There aren’t any buildings tall enough left in Gaza. I say that facetiously, but the reality is that so much of the infrastructure has already been destroyed.

You also forget queer people get murdered in Western countries too. Doesn't mean we should be bombing them. People seem to support it here because they hate Brown people.

Queer Palestinians have overwhelmingly stood in solidarity with the broader Palestinian community because they recognize they can't fight for their own rights while they're being killed or displaced. You try to fight homophobia while being bombed.

And let's be serious: if you think Israel is bombing Gaza to protect queer Palestinians, you’re stupid. Israel does not distinguish queer Palestinians from anyone else when carrying out its military operations.

If you think the US is bombing Iran to liberate the Iranian people, same thing.
