To Lawmakers and Civil Society Organizations, We are a coalition of LGBTQ+ activists, artists, and community organizers writing with one simple message: if you support the dangerous censorship bills that are threatening our community, seeing you at Pride this year is going to be a gut punch. Queer and trans communities are facing unrelenting attacks […]
If I’m reading it correctly, are they telling the homophobes to stay home?
Or is it more like a general strike for the LGBTQ community?
It’s not very clearly written.
The author is telling those companies/politicians to stay home (don’t come to pride/don’t pretend to support pride).
I take it as “Queer activists tell people who support censorship they don’t belong at pride”
Kinda but more directed towards lawmakers or congress to stay home who state they support the community by going to pride events or protests against the administration but in reality support the censorship towards the community. The examples of bills tell me it’s directed towards the lawmakers or politicians.
