Georgian trans model murdered after parliament passes ‘anti-LGBTQ+’ law
Tributes paid to Kesaria Abramidze as ruling party and allies are accused of state campaign against minorities
A well-known Georgian transgender model has been murdered, local officials said, a day after the government passed legislation that will impose sweeping curbs on LGBTQ+ rights in the country.
“There is a direct correlation between the use of hate speech in politics and hate crimes,” the Social Justice Center, a Tbilisi-based human rights group, said in its statement reacting to the murder.
Fucking sad. Just baffles me how some people can be so intolerant.
Right. And usually the loudest ones are hidden LGBTQ+ cowards.
Edit: To make it clearer - what @[email protected] said: "that most of these super intolerant people are actually closeted LGBTQ+ people that are ashamed of themselves. E.g. the at this point almost common story of an anti-LGBT politician seen at a gay orgy or whatever." Thanks for downvoting spree, though :)
if it weren't for the word "parliament" this would be a prominent Georgia or Georgia headline
No, wouldn't be news.
