Read the material I posted in the other comment I know you saw it because you responded with a similarly clever remark

Yes every muslim across time and space is just like an american fundamentalist from today. You are a very smart person.
Read the paragraph after
Second, the rise of Islamic fundamentalism in the 1980s coincided with that of the gay-rights movement in America and Europe, hardening cultural differences. Once homosexuality had become associated with the West, politicians were able to manipulate anti-LGBT feelings for their personal gain.
so it again traces back to the western powers who keep funding islamic fundamentalism as well as the population having such animosity towards the west because of what we did to them that politicians over there can just point at something, call it western, and people automatically assume it's bad.
I just wanted to make sure that it was crystal clear that I didn't mean your physical appearance.
I meant your personality. You as a person are gross.
Fucking psycho deserves the same treatment. Gross person
You're gross bud
Because you're so fucking obtuse that you confuse the book with the religion, no one knows how to explain this shit to someone this fucking dense.
Edit: educate yourself on where the current extreme homophobia in the middle east is coming from
The first is the influence, directly or indirectly, of European powers in the region. In 1885 the British government introduced new penal codes that punished all homosexual behaviour. Of the more than 70 countries that criminalise homosexual acts today, over half are former British colonies. France introduced similar laws around the same time.

or more carefully studied in one instance here: https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/comparative-studies-in-society-and-history/article/homophobic-muslims-emerging-trends-in-multireligious-singapore/2B06C99F6DB951C400B24AC82C5BF2A9
the tl;dr is the current severity of the persecution of LGBTQ+ people in muslim countries stems from europe. Not from Islam. Because the stance of one of the largest religions, that is 1200 years old, on any topic has not and never will be as uniquely and clearly defined as you think it is.
Being a bigot is.
Middle Easterners deserve every bit of my sympathy
Jesus fuck talk about western chauvinism
for being unintentionally associated with that bullshit
Guess how many MidDle EasTerneRs are muslim? Also what about north africans? Central and south east asian people? Do you know how LARGE a group muslims are? That statistically there must be 100s of millions of gay muslims?? Quit with this Muslim=arab=Middle easterner="cishet brown person in a police state" bullshit, its racist.
Because this "comfort" comes at a cost for other peoples wellbeing.
I dont know if you mean this as "The majority of the HP and LOTR fanbase is comprised of kids in abusive households using them as a comfort from the abuse" or "The majority of kids in abusive households use HP and LOTR as comfort from the abuse" but either way that's a huge claim, do you have anything to back that up?
I would be genuinely surprised if there is a person who would not be able to manage their PTSD without LOTR or HP.
