    American conservatives (The Fellowship Foundation, Family Research Council, Focus on the Family and other conservatives) pushed these laws to kill LGBT people in African nations. They spent tens of millions influencing local politicians to pass these deadly laws. American conservatives did this. The same conservatives who are pushing this agenda now in the U.S.

    Conservatism is a disease that infects entire nations. Symptoms include oppression, sickness and death. This plague is on the rise globally and is in desperate need of a cure.

    There is no amount of “good conservatism”. It is all a deadly plague and should be treated as such.

      I am so outraged by the conservative terrorists in our midst. We cannot let hate prevail.

      If you say no homo at the end of getting pounded, then it’s ok.

      But for real, fucking shit. What can we do from Europe to help the gays in Africa?

    President Joe Biden ordered a review of U.S. aid to Uganda.

    Not quite strong enough there Biden, I’m sorry.

      Why? It’s a start. It shows Uganda that the USA is reviewing how they help the country. If they have aid pulled from this, it can very much affect. Also they have sanctions in place for some already it seems.

    So only one of them was charged.

    Is it like prison rules? “You’re only gay if you give head”?

    Ironic considering the homosexuals in Uganda must feel like prisoners.

      I was thinking the same, but really the horror is that either of them would be subject to this at all. It’s fucking ridiculous, and isn’t going to resolve their ‘crime wave’ issues there. The problem isn’t gay gangs… 😂

        If global politics has taught me anything, it’s that the people who most focus on protecting decency are actually masking their own perversion.

        My best guess is someone at the top has repressed desires…
