I just read twenty pages of this and didn't multiquote but here are my general thoughts.
1. Leftists are aware that many Palestinians would not be accepting of LGBT people. Many of them are religious extremists, and in Gaza, all of them have spent their entire lives languishing in a slum-prison. Some Palestinians are queer themselves, and some are accepting of LGBT people, but that has nothing to do with it. Leftists' motivation for supporting Palestine is not self-interested. I suspect a lot of people on the right know this. People don't deserve to be genocided because their views are regressive. No one deserves genocide.
2. It is really weird to see people on a site like this arguing in favour of
more verifications and
more identifications required for doing anything. Ditto for censorship of what books should and shouldn't be read in public schools. It's as if we're cheerleading your own political death to own the libs. The more authoritarian the state becomes, the more power it can exercise, the more something like Kiwi Farms is anathema to it. I wish more people could put the partisan crackpipe down for two seconds and consider that the enemy of your enemy isn't always your friend.

if a school was teaching my children that they should... have as much sex as they can, and do so unsafely, you can bet your fucking ass i'd be complaining...
I bet, me too, but when does this happen? Sincere question? Every non-abstinence-only sex ed program I ever encountered managed to teach about condoms, birth control, how pregnancy works, and STIs. The good ones managed to include consent. Every high school I was ever familiar with had condoms available for free. As far as I see, it's generally the sex ed programs driving the idea of safe sex home, and the kids that are going to be kids and ignore the advice anyway.
This is literally the same thing we had for "evolution" books in my high school a few decades ago...
See, this is infuriating. It's as if everyone in the class gets to learn how the world actually works, and this one poor freak gets to read fanfic in the library.
...maybe the ruling on injunctions signals that SCOTUS will rule in favor of Trump on birth right citizenship and we will finally end the entire concept of anchor babies.
So, if not birth, what determines citizenship? Does every potential American citizen have to pass a test like a new immigrant would? At what point in their life? These are sincere questions. I'm having trouble envisioning it.
