So, according to you, anyone not ID-ing as a CisHet must be an American Imperialist to you.
The "out and proud" factor comes from the fact that despite CisHet people wanting us dead for being different, we still keep being what we really are rather than repressing ourselves.
I really don't understand why y'all are like this, always having some kind of bone to pick with queer people, when LGBT has always been an International thing rather than an American thing. Are you going to now say the Ottoman Turks were intimidated by Americans to accept Homosexuality in the 16th/17th century?
Funny you even say that when the same America is oppressing its own LGBT people, so fairly redundant to say LGBT is an American Ideology.
It was less that and more from you calling LGBT an "American Imperialist" thing when it clearly isn't. Sure, westerners like to abuse LGBT rights to try exert their power or to flex their morality (despite oppressing their own country's queer people) onto us but to call the entire thing Imperialist just rubs me off in the wrong way. Don't twist my words.
