absolutely, but what im criticizing here are the (often young) white queers who didn’t grow up under that oppressive system appropriating the pain of others to feel edgy and cool
that’s the problem, that’s what this meme is doing
im “making it a race thing” because it’s just factual that white queers face way less oppression than queer BIPOC. and it’s mostly white queers making these edgy jokes
im sorry for having assumed you were one of them, though. that was shitty and I apologize

When I was young and discovering myself, my existence was illegal in my area and queer people in my area were still heavily persecuted.
I won’t go into details about the terrible things I’ve seen and experienced as I’m sure nobody here wants to hear it.
Laughing not to cry and all that you know?
Edit: I’m also not a fan of how you brought (and doubled down) on trying to make it a race thing.
