Oh, it really happened! @reperspectivity

To be fair it was organised by a “right wing” group (by Swedish standards) to make that very point. But they did make their point…

“ They believe the agenda behind this parade organised by the far-right is to try to provoke Muslims in the predominantly immigrant areas. “

You believe that an LGBT parade through such areas would “provoke” people, yet the ones organising the parade are the racists?

And if I remember my gay history properly, being provocative was the fucking point!

So basically, right-wingers propose using the same method initially use to create acceptance where previously there was none, but since it’s right-wingers, it’s now racist?

bloodandhedonism

this is basically what david hines said would happen re: right-wingers adopting left-wing tactics to delegitimize them, if in an obvious early-stage super-mild version of it

uh-oh

Fuckin’ L, the liberals told us this wouldn’t happen.

There is a choice to be made here. People want to pretend it isn’t necessary and all groups are compatible, but that’s wishful thinking. One of these things is an ideology, and a political one at that, and the other is an essentially harmless biologically-rooted phenomenon which doesn’t carry much in the way of extra information.
