Women happily accepting their oppression in non-white countries(while in white ones they "Reeeeee" at their privilege). Trans are almost non existent in non white countries. Minorities and religious minorities are non existent and oppressed in non white countries.

    There's gonna be people in america that oppose others rights... they have no power or authority and if any if authority or power exist, they're quickly removed. It's still their right to hate you or anyone for any reason they want to... that's freedom(not for long though)
    You can be free to criticize all you like in this country. Our freedom of speech is unrivaled. I literally just cited examples where people in government (and in power) are trying to take away the rights of gay people, just for being gay. That is oppression. That is discrimination. That's what states like Texas are trying to do.

    Hmm - maybe there is something to all these folks having an issue with abnormal sexual relations. Thousands of years go by and homosexuals are not applauded. Now we are asked to accept that two men can sodomize each other repeatedly for pleasure and be good with it?

    Strange how no one seems to give a fuck when Islamic countries are literally killing gay people for just being themselves, yet China doing what China does best is suddenly a cause for outrage.

    You don't have to be "good" with anything, simply stop trying to oppress them.

    Because:

    1. China has no mainstream Abrahamic religion to blame it on.
    2. People want to be allies with China but talk too much shit about opposing Russia for their state sanctioned homophobia. Looks hypocritical.
    3. It's "Islamaphobic" to talk about the violent homophobia in the Middle East.

    Strange how people seem to make up these random claims which aren't really motivated by any facts/truth.

    The only ones that don't give a fuck are those that generally support that behavior and would commit similar actions against gays.

    So whats worse, China blocking online content about homosexuality, or Islamic countries throwing gay people off roofs?

    One is clearly worse. That does not justify the other.

    Probably just some "outrages" by *abnormal* homosexual people. But why do they even care if you dont live in China? Just be happy that you can enjoy your homo relationship in the countries you're living in.

    keyword is trying to...

    I personally think it's stupid that people want to take these rights away, and you'll have to re-cite these examples, i can't find where you posted them. but those people are stupid, just like the feminist and black activist who are telling the white liberals to abort all white male babies.

    There's ignorance on all sides in this country and it sucks, but this isn't a game, this world will never be perfect and everyone is going to be flawed. But at least our version of this world is the most progressive one there is. I dare say it's a privilege for gay people to cry about these things, that aren't even a thing(and never will be ever again) in this country, while just existing as a gay person is fatal in other countries.

    On a side note, china actually bans everything that is about pornography.

    Never said it justified anything, just think there are bigger problems in the world with regards to homophobia, than China being China and censoring what its populace views online.

    Hopefully, one would fare about freedoms for everyone. Otherwise, you don't really give a shit about freedom at all.

    china is a free nation and pursue its own ideals - just because PC culture of west approves of it in past 50 year it doesnt mean rest of world does - in most of africa and asia it is still considered as taboo and abnormal behaviour - we are not speaking about some local raissm only about half of worlds population seeing it as "abnormal" - only time will show who was right - whether culture of north/west or south/east.

    And it is entirely possible to speak about both issues. Why try and deflect on the oppression in China, by bringing up the oppression in Muslim-dominated countries? I'm capable of addressing them both, how about you?

    It's not a free nation, as has been demonstrated many times, including in the OP. What it is, is a sovereign nation, the people are far from actually being free.

    One is killing people, one is blocking content online.

    I know that I care about one of them vastly more than I do about the other one.
