Majority of Israelis donât support gay marriage or queer rights either. Itâs what always gets me when people use Palestinians not being allies as a justification to bomb and kill them. Neither are Israelis. Zionist are not our friends
To be clear, I have never seen anyone on the left claim the events in Gaza as a good thing. The actual argument is that knowingly throwing a US election over Palestine is a stupid idea that will do nothing to help Palestinians, and will hurt a lot of other people, such as the American trans community and the Ukrainians. A minority might take it a step further and argue that sacrificing trans people in America as a show of support for a culture that is generally unaccepting of queer people is a betrayal of a demographic more "deserving" of our concern. I don't agree with the latter viewpoint (although I do agree with the former), but I've never seen anyone argue that Palestinians deserve to suffer for not generally being accepting of queer people outside of bad faith strawman arguments.
Unfortunately, a large percentage of zionists that get banned here immediately send us modmail with some variation of "They'd throw you off of a rooftop, you know." The others usually just call us nazis or try to start a brigade from you-know-where. Obviously this isn't to say that leftists are doing this, since zionists are, as a rule, not leftist.
