By aligning with LGBT, the incompetent imperialist left-wing causes the right wing to be more anti-LGBT. No one is born homophobic or transphobic; such prejudice is a creation of society. Liberals are fueling queerphobia by being incompetent with all issues in the U.S. and promoting lgbt rights concurrently. Assuming religious beliefs are not involved, hatred of lgbt stems from there. The friends of liberals become the enemy of right-wingers. Liberalism, in the U.S. sense of the term, has become linked to lgbt.
A common saying within reactionary circles is, “Hard times create strong men, strong men create good times, good times create weak men, and weak men create hard times.”
In this scenario, it goes over their heads that the weak men took power over the strong men. It is similar to how they think Jews are inferior and, yet, they control the world. In their view, weak men are wealthy liberals elite who are creating hard times. However, in reality, liberals are not weak; they hold a great deal of power and are very dangerous. Their association with weakness comes in part from LGBT. Reactionaries believe it’s an ideology or attitude—a flaw in an individual’s character. In the U.S., they think that problems are arising because men are getting weaker and that lgbt derives from white, wealthy liberal families.
I’ve heard many of them claim there are just a few black transgender people or none at all. From this, we can see their racism mixing with other reactionary beliefs. For them, black people cannot be trans due to being stereotyped as brutish, violent, homophobic individuals. Thus, only affluent white people can be affected by the imaginary gay agenda destroying the country. Another more liberal belief is that white people are considered boring and, therefore, look for attention by claiming to be LGBT. Again, this is racist due to a liberal mischaracterization of black people as being “cool” and “urban.” On a related note, veganism is often considered a “middle-class” white people’s movement, but that couldn’t be further from the truth. Polls have revealed that black individuals in the U.S. are much more likely to be vegan or vegetarian due to poverty and probably other reasons, which also tells us that veganism isn’t a costly diet; rather, it is the opposite. White people are altering history, presenting a false representation of the black nation within the U.S., and depriving them of their roots.
Imperialism shapes the global south and, in return, influences the Western world—the superstructure of exploiter and exploited experience changes. Rainbow imperialism creates anti-LGBT sentiments in the Global South while also reinforcing harmful religious beliefs by exploiting and keeping them poor.
globalvillagespace.com reported on May 05, 2023, “President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has accused his political rival, Kemal Kilicdaroglu, of being “LGBT,” ahead of next week’s elections. Erdogan’s government views LGBT ideology as an American and European “religion,” alien to Turkish morals. “We know that Mr. Kemal is an LGBT person,” Erdogan told a rally in the city of Giresun on Thursday. “CHP is LGBT, IYI party is LGBT, HDP is LGBT,” he continued, listing off the political factions in Kilicdaroglu’s six-party National Alliance bloc.”
(The website also believes it is an ideology.)
This inaccurate view these reactionaries have about us is an ideology itself. A person’s environment—the superstructure—determines their beliefs. If we apply the environment part to LGBT, it does not explain why so many conservative and religious parents have children who are queer. Also, there were records of trans people living within Turtle Island before colonialism. Therefore, it’s not new or an ideology derived from family, but I digress.
Turkish President Erdogan capitalizes on his people’s distrust of the United States, a distrust created by imperialism. They associate LGBT as a product of their enemy, of their domestic political enemies as well, similar to what right-wingers are doing in the West. Consequently, it results in two reactions in the Western world: The reinforcement of the false belief that mainly white people belong to lgbt and that the Global South is queerphobic by nature.
When it comes to the reactionary belief of innate violence tendencies in nonwhites, Donald Trump gave this speech on Saturday, March 16, 2024, at a campaign rally at Dayton International Airport: “They are sending them from all over the world, not just South America and Latin America but also Asia and Africa. Last night, twenty-two people arrived from the Congo. Now, the Congo is a very nice place, I would imagine. You ask them where they came from, and they’ll say prison. Now, these are rough people. They are coming from Africa, they are coming from Asia, from the Middle East. These young people were in jail for years; if you call them people, I don’t know if you call them people. In some cases, they are not people, in my opinion, but I’m not allowed to say that because the radical left says that’s a terrible thing to say. These are animals, and we have to stop it. We have so many people being hurt so badly and being killed. They are sending their prisoners to see us, and they’re bringing them right to the border. They are tougher than anybody we have in the country. These are hardened criminals. And we got hundreds of thousands of them, and we are not gonna take it.” I transcribed this from a YouTube video of the speech.
Clearly, reactionaries view nonwhites as violent and brutish. When we connect the liberal belief that black people are “cool and urban,” we gain a false perception of them and of white people. For white individuals, it creates a notion that they are boring and continually look for attention to look cool, so they identify and consider themselves to be lgbt for that reason, a view promoted by HBO comedian Bill Maher. Similarly, they associate themselves with “trendy” movements, such as veganism, for the same reason. The belief that POCs are innately violent promotes the idea that they are too “brutish” to be queer, as well as that they are queerphobic. Consequently, it separates black people from LGBT, which they are just as much a part of as white people—further undermining black communities. Polls have revealed people of color are more likely to be queer than white people.
HuffPost reported on October 19, 2012, “According to the report, released by Gallup earlier this week, 4.6 percent of African Americans responded “yes” when asked if they identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, or transgender, along with four percent of Hispanics, 4.3 percent of Asians and 3.2 percent of Caucasians.” https://www.huffpost.com/entry/black-gays-lgbt-community_n_1989859
The importance of intersectionality has never been greater. And never let anyone believe that lgbt is a trend of white people or let anyone convince you that it is.
