India recriminalises homosexuality

[New Laikland]

Because there are far worse things going on in India than something miniscule and unimportant like this.

Something that affects millions of Indian citizens is not miniscule or unimportant.[/quote]

Out of 1.1 billion, it is.

[Estado Paulista]

Gay privilege? That's a new one.

Hey, there's white and CIS privilege, don't think we're letting gays off easy, either!

White and CIS privilege is actually a thing. Gay privilege isn't.

[Britanno]

How is it not bad?

Because there are far worse things going on in India than something miniscule and unimportant like this.

A law that means you could be banned from being yourself is unimportant?

I'm starting to really like India

[Threlizdun]

Nope human rights abuse.

Removal of a privilege, actually. Unless you want to somehow show me the laws of nature given to us by nature itself that declare that every human has rights.

No, they are talking about the violation of human rights we are all provided by the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

[New Laikland]

White and CIS privilege is actually a thing. Gay privilege isn't.

If there is no gay privilege, then there's no white or CIS privilege.

And why do I care?

Do show us the laws nature gave us itself.

[New Laikland]

Oh, that worthless piece of paper, eh?

I'm sure North Korea is doing quite fine enforcing those, since they're rights and all.

[New Laikland]

Do show us the laws nature gave us itself.

I'd be happy to, if they existed.

[Estado Paulista]

If there is no gay privilege, then there's no white or CIS privilege.

I don't even.

[New Laikland]

I don't even.

Oh no, someone actually decides to give other people equality instead of allowing his entire race be subject to racism by a loud minority!

[Britanno]

And why do I care?

Because it is your duty as a human being to support equality for all other human beings.

[Kelinfort]

Nope human rights abuse.

The right to being yourself is not a privelige.

[Swedish Realm]

I do not support gay marriage, but criminalizing homosexuality? That's a little much.

[The Dragonry]

God damn it India. I had high hopes for you being a shining bacon of equality and maybe one up
America.

SHINY BACON! ^_^

and boooo, India,booo...

Out of 1.1 billion, it is.[/quote]Something that directly effects between four to twelve percent of the population will absolutely have indirect effects on the rest of the nation. Of course, even before that you are literally telling millions of people to go fuck themselves.

That might be due to your homophobia.

[Britanno]

Oh, that worthless piece of paper, eh?

I'm sure North Korea is doing quite fine enforcing those, since they're rights and all.

So because one country breaches human rights, it's ok for all others to do so?

[Estado Paulista]

Do show us the laws nature gave us itself.

Well, since nature didn't tell us anything about human rights, I'd say that the Universal Declaration of Human Rights is as valid as if it was given by nature itself.

[New Laikland]

The right to being yourself is not a privelige.

It isn't "being yourself".

I can become gay in a second if I wanted, or I can stay straight. I can do anything. The fact that it's legal here means I can do it. There is no "being yourself".

[Swedish Realm]

India needs to focus on that high percentage of rape before focusing on homosexuality.

[AiliailiA]

Nope human rights abuse.

Removal of a privilege, actually. Unless you want to somehow show me the laws of nature given to us by nature itself that declare that every human has rights.

You assert there are no such thing as rights.

Well OK, justify removing a privelege from gay people while granting that privilege to straights.

[Dakran]

God damn it India. I had high hopes for you being a shining bacon of equality and maybe one up
America.

SHINY BACON! ^_^

and boooo, India,booo...

About time someone caught that.

[Need a Name]

Because it is your duty as a human being to support equality for all other human beings.

Well, I guess even I must admit that criminalizing homosexuality is a step too far.
