And there we go. You're equating my statement that the words used are incorrect to infer that I don't support my own community. Well done.
This isn't about my personal feelings on equality, it's about someone equating sovereign countries responses to violent behavior from other countries to those same countries who are not engaged in violent behavior.
So, my country (US) has a real problem with prison over population, we charge people way too often for minor infractions that then result in long sentences. Now if you were to say The US can't complain about China's over charging people and giving them long sentences, I'd agree.
But, l feel like this would be more akin to saying America is hypocritical for condemning Chinese internment of Uighors because the US also locks people up. Neither is good, but one is significantly, unequivocally worse and to say that they are equal does not comport with how I understand the world around me.
My response was tuned into what l inferred (due to the posters comment history) was the poster using gay rights as a vehicle to shit on the west, and not a serious concern with the lgbtq community in general.
I've already apologized to the poster (assuming my inference was incorrect).
