I'm against what Israel is doing 100%. But mixing LGBT+ rights with support for an anti-LGBT+ country is not the way to go.

Civil rights are civil rights, my guy.

OK? As I said, I'm against what Israel is doing. I will defend the right to live of Palestinians even though most would rather see me dead. I just won't wave their country flag.

there are queer people in Palestine too, it's not like the missles are dodging them

I know, that's why I'm against this stupid war, and hate that my taxes are supporting it. That's the first sentence in my comment. I will defend the right to live of all Palestinians. But you won't see me waving a flag of a flag that would rather see me dead.
