People are writing names of prominent drag performers on Israeli missiles aimed at Gazan civilians, an example of “pinkwashing” the IDF’s crimes against humanity. One of the famous drag performers responds, expressing her indignation that her name is being used to promote the bombing, which she vigorously opposes.

    IDK if you’re “not a queer”, not sure that’s helpful. I think it needs to be accepted that being queer doesn’t necessarily mean you’re kind.

      It’s very harsh, but it’s a perception that queer is instrinsically connected to leftist struggle. Queer nazis don’t exist, queer zionists don’t either. The political ideology overwhelms whatever other identity the person could have.

      Queer zionists are also just fucking horrible human beings in 99% of cases and engage in pinkwashing on purpose.

      some people only have one thing going on for them, and then try to shoehorn everything into that thing.
      btw, you’re not a queer if you like Hawaiian pizza… that garbage was invented in canada anyways…
