Reply #97: There's a big-ass gulf of difference between the extremes you mentioned [View All]

[Lyric]

and the realities here. You are drawing false equivalences.

We're not talking international warfare, where thousands upon thousands of people are at risk of immediate and horrible death if an agreement is not soon reached, and we are NOT talking about a situation where both sides of the issue are partially right. We are talking civil rights, and there IS NO RIGHT SIDE other than the one we we espouse here.

Israel and Palestine both have valid grievances against each other. What fucking grievance does the right-wing have against gay people, other than that they exist AT ALL and want their Constitutional rights respected?

You may "call 'em as you see'em," but if that's the case, I have serious doubts about the acuity of your vision.
