      Well romans were fine with it. And the US people like to compare themselves to Romans at the height of the empire. But now it seems totally unforgiveable .

        That’s… disingenuous. Lot of stuff happened between those points, including the murder of homosexuals for the crime of existing.

        The LGBT community keeps the fight up because complacency gets our rights taken away. Justice Thomas has explicitly stated that gay marriage is on his list of wrongs* to right. To say nothing of Project 2025.

          Western world is still pretty much the only place where homosexuals aren’t. Rest of the world… murdered pretty regularly. Asia, Africa, South America, middle east, are all FAR less ‘progressive’ than Western democratic countries.

            Very true. I’m behind the US lens on this one so it’s easier to speak from what I experience. I know it’s… bad… elsewhere.

        lol they were fine with it as long as the queers were whores and such. they could not be citizens.

        only people who had any power in Rome were male roman citizens, and the wealthy ones at that.

        and lots and lots of folks blame the downfall of Rome on it’s ‘decay’ of allowing homosexuality and such
