honestily getting real tired of "allies" that lecture me on queer issues. Can't go into detail bc it was a very specific discussion, but the people struggling to keep track of my pronouns and gender identity don't get to hold lectures on queer palestinians (especially since THEY were also white and they were not able to call it a genocide, opposed to me, lmao)

transcript
if you are a queer person who's ever stood up for the Palestinian people odds are a Zionist has said to you βWell if you were gay in Palestine they would throw you off a roofβ
as a queer Palestinian who spent a lot of time in Palestine I'd like to tell you my experience with queerness in the West Bank
majority of these people who say that Palestinians kill gay people have actually never been to Palestine (or Israel for that matter) and are just deeply racist and say this as a reason to justify the genocide of the Gazan people
when I was in the West Bank last year with all my friends I was surprised to see how many openly gay people were in the West Bank
a lot of my Palestinian male friends were holding other men in clubs, going home with other men, kissing other men, and I would see this in public
many people in Palestine are aware of who is gay in their town and they don't care because Palestinians have more to worry about than who's gay and who's not
one of my best friends in Palestine, his cousin is a masc lesbian
she is very masc presenting and looks like a lesbian publicly all the time
when we were in Palestine, girls were kissing, guys were kissing in public
there's a very famous road of bars in the West Bank where you would walk in and see same gender couples dancing together, kissing, going into the bathroom together
um so I don't understand this notion that if you were gay in Palestine you'd be killed because we have been gay in Palestine and we haven't been killed
you know what is killing Palestinians, Israel
so this idea that you can't be gay and support Palestinians because they don't support gay people one is untrue and b is just a cover up to justify the killing of Palestinians
I've clearly never been to Gaza because I am not allowed to but there are also queer people in Gaza who have spoken out on Instagram about being queer in Gaza
I even have a friend who has a non binary partner in Palestine, a non binary Palestinian living in Palestine and all of their friends use they them pronouns for them
Palestine is a lot more progressive than people think and this idea that they're slaughtering gay people is just really rooted in racism and orientalism
gay marriage is not even legal in Israel so anyone using that as a justification doesn't really care about gay people because if they did they would stop killing the gay Palestinians in Gaza
This Pride Month I really encourage you guys to stand with your queer brothers and sisters across the world in Palestine and a fight against their genocide
thank you guys ProxiTok
thank you so much, sharing that
