South Korea radical Christians warn of “homosexual dictatorship” after opposition wins
A defeat for the conservative president’s party could signal increased LGBTQ+ rights.
homosexual dictatorships
I mean... I'm cishet, but I'm willing to give it a go. Probably better than what we have around here.
I mean what's the worst that could happen? I have to dress more fashionably? Wear rainbows all the time? The horror.
Idk why but I thought of this
Watching that as an adult is so much different than as a kid. When I was young I thought, "haha, they are in trouble now!" Now I see the worst thing that happened was them having to ballroom dance.
I'm all about Fully Automated Luxury Gay Space Communism, go for it lmao
It's South Korea. Fully Automatic, sure. Luxury for some, sure. Gay? Unlikely. Communism?
I've got bad, bad news.
Don't threaten me with a good time
It has long been a Christian lobby rallying cry that the mere mention of homosexuality will bring about their imagined “homosexual dictatorship”, a prophecy that includes crumbling family structures, crashing birth rates, an AIDS pandemic, and gay soldiers surrendering en masse to a North Korean invasion.
Ah, yes, this is a very important issue to South Korea. They wouldn't want to lose their position as the -let me check the notes- second country in the world with the lowest birth rate. Rigid and traditional gender roles are working great for them so far, it's not like men and women hate each other over there or anything.
Isn't it #1 now since Hong Kong was gobbled up by China?
Aaaand that would be correct.

What does even "homosexual dictatorship" means? Will they oppress straight people? 😂😂
The terrible oppression of letting people different than me have the same rights I have.
I'm all for radical religious groups being defeated.
My question is, why do we constantly lend credence to their hateful ideas? Why constantly report on how they feel as if they’re the standard bearer of…—well, as if their opinion even mattered? We don’t get constant updates when other hateful organizations are upset over the people they try to oppress. Normalize ignoring these people.
Religion ruins everything and everywhere
Christian missionaries and post-Korean War Americanization have wrought some truly terrible things on Korea.
Everywhere.
homosexual dictatorship sounds pretty good actually
Sounds pretty gay*
Like The Flintstones, it'll be a gay ol' time!
Disco Fridays? I'm in!
Well it seems religious people in any part of the world are stupid and crazy.
Conservatism is a vile, deadly plague that needs to be extinguished.
What's with the star of David swastika mascot 👀
Where? I read the article but didn't spot it
E: oh wait it's on the first picture. Can't tell if yikes or just your standard religious symbol...
The swastika doesn't have the same associations with the Nazis in Asia
you'd think south korean radical christians would be more concerned about the rampant sexism and misogyny that's plaguing the country
No Christ is exceedingly sexist. There's literally instructions on how hard you can beat your wife and with what in the Bible.
Dicktatorship for short
Count me in, that sounds fabulous!
