Such a bizarre situation all around.

Earlier this month, two feminine, pretty lesbians were sitting on the top deck of a double decker bus in London, and showed some kind of affection, presumably kissing.

Five teenage pervs, aged 15-18, saw this and their mind instantly went to porn.

They started aggressively demanding the lesbians put on a show for them. The women refused, and probably had some choice words for them. Things escalated. Eventually the five boys beat the women.




There's little question that the boys are guilty, and are violent little punks who need to be punished.

However, this story quickly caught fire around the world as an example of a "homophobic attack". The narrative being presented was that the women were attacked for being gay.

That's not at all the reason they were attacked! In fact, it was the opposite of a homophobic attack. It was a homophilic attack -- an attack based upon the boys LIKING the women being lesbians so much that they demanded to see more physical affection between the two of them.

Again, while I agree that this was a heinous and obnoxious crime, it was NOT gay bashing or homophobia. Homophobic attacks occur because people hate gays so much that they feel disgusted to the point of attacking them. That's not what happened here, obviously.

So that was the first stupid thing, and yet the media was shoving it down our throats that "homophobic attacks are everywhere, even out in the open in London".

Ugh.

But it got even dumber.

The women received an outpouring of support. That part is fine. They were attacked, their story went viral, and people everywhere sympathized with them.

Instead of showing appreciation, one of the women had the nerve to pen an angry editorial insisting that they were only getting sympathy because they're white, female, and pretty!



I have evaded much of the violence and oppression imposed on so many others by our capitalist, white supremacist, patriarchal system because of the privileges I enjoy by dint of my race, health, education, and conventional gender presentation. That has nothing to do with the merit of my character.

The press coverage, and timely law enforcement response, was not coincidental to our complexions. Neither was the disproportionate online reaction over the victimisation of a pretty brunette and blonde. The commodification and exploitation of my face came at the expense of other victims whose constant persecution apparently does not warrant similar moral outrage.
Can you believe this shit?

She oddly puts herself down for having largely evaded violence in her life due to her white-attractive-female privilege. Huh? She was just beaten up on a bus by perverts after sharing a lesbian kiss. How is that privilege?

Instead of saying, "Thanks to everyone for the outpouring of love and support during this difficult time", she felt it necessary to chide those sympathizing for being transphobic racists.

You know, because you're not allowed to have sympathy for white, non-trans people anymore, even if they're gay.

Here's a good article calling the woman out for "peak identitarian bollocks": https://www.spiked-online.com/2019/0...-two-lesbians/
