If there are out gays who don’t face much or any persecution, I would call that a victory for the cause worth celebrating! Remember Alan Turing. Remember Harvey Milk. Both of them were white gays who paid dearly for having the audacity to be themselves. Racism is unbecoming. It’s divisive. I think it’s important to show solidarity to all humans struggling to be themselves under oppressive systems.

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.
