    Most of the southern US won’t stone you or murder you in broad daylight though. What’s happening in Palestine and Israel is fucked up, but it doesn’t give a pass to the shit they do to the LGTBQ+ and women over there.

      I think everyone even Arabs agree that the majority of people is homophobic/transphobic. Fine.

      But please state a source for people in Palestine being stoned, like at all, no matter the reason. What kind of place do you think Palestine is?

        You’re joking right? There are literal laws all over the middle east in Islamic run nations about stoning people, just type stoning and middle east(ps this doesnt exclude Israel, they’ve arrested their own who have done it) into Google and you’re going to get a ton of results. Why is this shocking? Sharia law has it as a form of punishment.

        In recent times, stoning has been a legal or customary punishment in Iran, United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Mauritania, Saudi Arabia, Sudan, Yemen, northern Nigeria, Afghanistan, Brunei, and tribal parts of Pakistan, including northwest Kurram Valley and the northwest Khwezai-Baezai region though it is rarely carried out.[1][2][3][4] In some of these countries, including Afghanistan, it has been carried out extrajudicially by militants, tribal leaders, and others.[2] In some other countries, including Nigeria and Pakistan, although stoning is a legal form of punishment, it has never been legally carried out. Stoning is condemned by human rights organizations.

              There is a huge fucking difference between a hate crime and stoning as legal punishment.

                Uhh…who said it wasn’t? You or someone asked for an article on stoning in Palestine… I provided said article and now goal posts are being moved around.

                  I’m not that person, so I won’t argue their point.

                  I am making a different point, that has to do with Palestine as a whole, not about individual criminals.

          Not joking at all. Don’t show me a Wikipedia article, show me a newspaper article about someone being stoned in Palestine.

              So we’re talking about stoning people that’s allegedly happening due to violations of sharia law and you bring up a story from 2001 so probably during the second intifada about an incident involving illegal Israeli settlers.

              I wanted to assume that you maybe just don’t know better but this is just bad faith from your side.

                O I’m sorry that it’s a story from 2001 does that magically make it false now? Goal posts really keep getting pushed further and further…

                  Keep trying. This has nothing to do with stoning people as a punishment based on religious laws, for example for being trans. Which you claimed would be a common practice in Palestine. An unresolved incident involving illegal Israeli settlers during the second intifada inside the occupied West Bank has nothing to do with that. You’re the one moving goalposts, more like spreading false information and you know it.

                    You mean how I’ve continued to post links from legitimate sources providing proof of what I have been saying and you all have been replying with “not like that”…
