A culture that oppresses people because of their genetic makeup is literally never better.


No one speaks of oppression here -- those genetically different should possess all the usual rights (and even public sympathy to the complications their relative loneliness brings, not hatred).

Rights, but not the means to "convert" others in a long-term -- as where the society as a whole goes is a holistic choice, with the voices of 1% playing roughly proportional role.


Of course nobody speaks of oppression. Except the ones who do and spend time in jail for it.

And, no, the majority does not get to dictate the public behavior of the minority, so far as it does not harm others, except in a society that has internalized the intrinsic subhumanity of that minority. Which you have. You've washed your brain and I am done with you.

It's amazing that there are people who still think that letting gay people be publicly gay makes more gay people. Regressive parts of the U.S. have that problem, too, but at least they're dying off.

Sounds more like me being done with you, honestly, but farewell (and good luck supporting non-existent jailed public homosexuality evangelists) :)
