Why do so many people obsess about what queer people do, and how
we identify? The latest expression of hatred is in Uganda, where
a bill has been passed that now even criminalises merely
IDENTIFYING as gay. Yes, you've read correctly.
Now it is up to the president - a long-time homophobe - to decide
whether or not he sign it into effective law.
Everyone must oppose hatred wherever it rears its head. I analyse
in detail in this episode why the entire international community
ought to be outraged when human rights are trampled on. But I
also look at specific aspects of this bill that are, in turn,
vague, hate-filled, internally incoherent, and
irrational.
Of course, "the international community" is infamously
inconsistent on this score.
Have a listen to my full set of remarks and analysis. AND PLEASE
PLEASE PLEASE A) share this particular episode widely & B)
rebuke yourself if you are unmoved by the plight of any group of
people whose fundamental rights are trampled on.
