After their last attempt was thrown out 5 years ago due to procedural technicalities, Uganda is trying again to make homosexuality a capital crime. However, homosexual acts are already criminalized in Uganda. This new law, which is expected to pass, would not only make it punishable by death, it would also make education on homosexuality illegal: "Homosexuality is not natural to Ugandans, but there has been a massive recruitment by gay people in schools, and especially among the youth, where they are promoting the falsehood that people are born like that," Ethics and Integrity Minister Simon Lokodo told the Thomson Reuters Foundation.
"Our current penal law is limited. It only criminalises the act. We want it made clear that anyone who is even involved in promotion and recruitment has to be criminalised. Those that do grave acts will be given the death sentence."


So…NSG, where do we go from here?

protect people, of course, is the way to go

You wonder why Uganda is allowed to exist as an independent country..

So.....it suddenly has no right to exist because things like these? Pardon me Neko, but that's stupid, even if I disagree with the reinstatement of that law there.

Well, that's a part of it but also general mismanagement of the country.

tbf no country has a right to exist

Uganda continues to do absolutely backwards savage things. Im not surprised, what a fucking mess of a country. Needs to get a fucking grip on itself to put it lightly.

[Risottia]

Let's everybody cancel any international aid to Uganda and see how well they like becoming a Chinese colony.

Uhm.

I guess the Ugandan top-jobs like it more than not killing people for some popularity. Maybe a lovely smear campaign accusing said top-jobs of being gay, coupled with deepfake videos all over the internet? I guess that will make them think again.

[Andsed]

Absolutely disgusting. I hope to see international governments and organizations begin to place embargoes on Uganda and cut off international aid to hopefully pressure them into reserving this ridiculous and utterly disgusting law.

[Ifreann]

Time to start smuggling gays out of Uganda to somewhere they'll be safe. An under-ganda railroad, of sorts.

[Thermodolia]

yeah, we definitely need more people from countries like this.

I can’t tell if this is sarcasm or not

[Internationalist Bastard]

And so they've gone further to my shit list

Neko is a neo-Colonialist

[Trollzyn the Infinite]

What does Christianity have to do with this? It's a government imposing the law; not a church.

A government motivated by evangelical christianity. They are pretty open on why they want to kill da gayz: it is because Jesus wants them to.

Nowhere in the New Testament does it say to kill gays. Stop baiting.

[Trollzyn the Infinite]

That's perturbing, Maybe some civil rights organizations need to raise the issue on capitol hill.

Pfft, Evangelicals are a heavy part of Trump's base, they'll get coddled just like him.

Ironic considering Trump is the exact opposite of everything Jesus taught us to be like.

The Evangelicals are cynical and self-serving. Willing to openly endorse a serial adulterer because they see him as a rubber stamp to ban abortion and erase the Separation of Church and State.

[Ostroeuropa]

Nowhere because that would be culturally intolerant of us westerners.

The Laws come from old British Laws from back during Empire and the evangelising of Homophobic Americans.

And those laws come from Judaism, so...

They're hypocrites and charlatans, yes, I am aware.

Why would they care about being a Chinese colony compared to a Western one? China isn't going to give a shit and Chinese money is as good as western money these days. Face facts, the only way human rights are getting enforced is at the barrel of a gun.

Woah there guy, back up, we can't go enforcing human decency don't you know? We have to sit on our asses and complain while doing nothing as [ Insert Large Number of People Here ] suffer needlessly at the hands of their corrupt, psychotic governments until these things work themselves out. To suggest otherwise is imperialism and literally makes you Hitler.

Put heavy sanctions on the country and probe the groups that lobbied for it for possible criminal charges.

That last part especially.

That's sad, would be nice if their neighbours and regional organisations told them not to do that.

"Hey don't do that."

*continues doing that*

"Well we tried."

Umm...honestly tho I wonder if the African Court of Justice and Human Rights would do something about that.

[Gormwood]

Calling for Uganda to be clamped down while doing nothing about American Evangelicals that gave Uganda the idea to begin with. Treating the symptoms without curing the cause.
