One of the most bizarre groups to emerge from the sticky glory-hole of “rainbow” activism is the oxymoronic “Queers for Palestine”. Which makes about as much sense as ‘Jews for the Third Reich’, or ‘Sheep for Wolves’. Apparently nobody’s ever told them that Palestine is most definitely not for queers. Ninety-five per cent of Palestinians disapprove of homosexuality – the highest rate in the Arab world.
‘Drag Queen Story Hour’ in the Palestinian territories is far more likely to be ‘Drag a queen by the ankles through the streets behind a motorbike’ hour.
As Pew surveys note, hostility to homosexuality is strongly associated with “religiosity”. One religion, in particular.
But, slow learners that they are, the left just can’t figure out that they can have open “LGBTQ+”, or they can have Islam – but they can’t have both.
A city in Michigan just found out the hard way.
In 2015, many liberal residents in Hamtramck, Michigan, celebrated as their city attracted international attention for becoming the first in the United States to elect a Muslim-majority city council.
You won’t believe what happened next!
This week many of those same residents watched in dismay as a now fully Muslim and socially conservative city council passed legislation banning Pride flags from being flown on city property that had – like many others being flown around the country – been intended to celebrate the LGBTQ+ community.
And, just in case they still didn’t grasp it.
Muslim residents packing city hall erupted in cheers after the council’s unanimous vote, and on Hamtramck’s social media pages, the taunting has been relentless: “Fagless City”, read one post, emphasized with emojis of a bicep flexing.
Of course, the left-media is also lying by omission.
The resolution, which also prohibits the display of flags with ethnic, racist and political views.
It doesn’t seem as if any other ethnic, racial or political group is particularly miffed by the move.
Mayor Amer Ghalib, 43, who was elected in 2021 with 67% of the vote to become the nation’s first Yemeni American mayor, told the Guardian on Thursday he tries to govern fairly for everyone, but said LGBTQ+ supporters had stoked tension by “forcing their agendas on others”.
What agenda might that be?
Some Hamtramck Muslims say they simply want to protect children, and gay people should “keep it in their home”.
But that sentiment is “an erasure of the queer community and an attempt to shove queer people back in the closet”, said Gracie Cadieux, a queer Hamtramck resident who is part of the Anti-Transphobic Action group.
So… if wanting to protect children is ‘anti-queer’, what are they saying about ‘queer people’?
Still, it’s kind of hilarious to watch the wokesters get hoisted with their own self-righteous petards.
[Former Hamtramck mayor Karen Majewski] noted that a white, Christian-majority city council in 2005 created an ordinance to allow the Muslim call to prayer to be broadcast from the city’s mosques five times daily. It did so over objections of white city residents, and Majewski said she didn’t see the same reciprocity with roles reversed.

Somebody hand Karen her No Shit, Sherlock award, please.
North of the border, in a meme come to life, Christians and Muslims are finding out that they have one thing in common: wanting to keep groomers’ oily hooks off their children.
On Friday, hundreds of Christians and Muslims in Calgary came together at City Hall to protest the gender ideology being taught in schools chanting, “Leave our kids alone.”
“We stand together, as a Canadian people as a Muslim and a Christian, to protect our children,” one man said in a video posted on Twitter by Rebel News. “From that”, added another man as he pointed to a group of LGBTQ activists across the street.
The rainbow bullies might be all-too prepared to beat up on middle-aged women and old ladies, but they’re not so tough when Mo Mosque and Charlie Church join forces.
The Queer activist side of the protest was smaller than expected as the left-wing organizations ostensibly didn’t want to be seen as racist against Muslims. Queer Citizens United put out a statement that they “are not sufficiently informed by Muslim leaders in the community”.

Perhaps Kellie-Jay Keen ought to hire some big, burly Muslim blokes as her security next time. You won’t see “Tomato Boy” for dust.
