Or the same mfs when they’re trans in Italy

This one was a bit harder to find a gotcha for because practically all European countries had decriminalised homosexuality by the 60’s - Some of them twice! Due to i-am-adolf-hitler

Funnily enough homosexuality has been decriminalised in Turkey since the late 1800’s (according to NATOpedia)
This map doesn’t really show the continued persecution and is a bit more vague, but I dunno this is almost just a shit post anyway.

Cuba has the most progressive LGBTQ laws around, can Cuba just nuke most of Europe? (Yes, but not just because of da gays)

    Germany doesn’t have broad protection from discrimination for any marginalized group, let alone queer people who aren’t even constitutionally protected. Our anti-discimination law only exists in the first place due to EU rulings, is extremely lacking compared to other EU members and the liberals have spent the last 3 years blocking a reform that would actually make it a credible threat to bigots.

      Yeah this map isn’t as good as the other one, because you have to actually explain how the “law against discrimination” or whatever each country is classified as, usually isn’t actually protecting lgbtq people

        Unlike our constitution, our anti-discrimination law actually protects queer people, but the burden of proof that you’ve been discriminated is high enough to be useless most of the time and the damn thing isn’t even applicable when you’ve been discriminated by government institutions.
