(It's not quite that extreme but this is seriously bad and shocking) HBSC study on kids found in 2021 that 78% of girls looked positively at homosexuality, that number is now 51%.

On November 9th, a man forced his gay roommate to kneel at knifepoint and recorded it on his phone. He now faces life in prison. The victim's name is not trending. #LGBTQRights #AntiLGBTViolence #HateCrime #QueerNews #LGBTQIA #Justice #GayRights https://twp.ai/4hqysF
