Current mood

“I wake up every day, I open my eyes and ‘fuck, I’m still in Poland’ and I don’t feel like doing anything. The only thing I want is to leave this polish crap. I hate this country”.

last week, during a pride parade in one of Polish cities, a (heterosexual) marriage was arrested.

they brought home made bombs and wanted to detonate them during the parade. they had enough explosives to hurt and possibly kill some of the people attending the parade.

I just...

i remember, at the 8th grade, my friend and i were talking about haikyuu, and i fangirled about a gay ship (kagehina)

the boy behind us was a literal "everybody should believe my religion, if she does *this* she a slut, i see youre different than me so i shall bully you, reading? what reading?" type of an asshole.

he interrupted our conversation, and said "you said they were both guys"

"so what?" me, an in denial bisexual, and more prone to say my opinion, said

"its gay"

"so what? HOMOSEXUALITY IS NOT A BAD THING!"

he looked at me, huffed in disbelief, and turned his head.

they called me a bitch, a freak, and etcetera etcetera since day 1, so i was relieved to not start a fight with the guy that would only end in me in tears and they hating me more and more smug.

my friend and i got back to our conversation, both slightly more tense

as the bell rang and everybody got back to their desks, the boy said, out loud, to his friends:

"that girl thinks its okay to be gay!"

they snorted, made disbelieving sounds, and loudly talked with homophoby, and talked about how much of a freak i was.

i was shaking with anger, and my friends had to calm me down not to start a fight.

i live in a homophobic country. worse than america. just a week ago, my token straight(tm) friend submitted a story, that had a slight reference to dorian gray's portrait in the end to the school magazine.

the teacher said that he couldnt publish the story, because of the homosexual content.

why? we asked, i said if he was a homophobe.

"no i am not. there's nothing wrong with being gay, but the ministry of education thinks otherwise. if we publish the story, they'll start an investigation against me, and shut down the school magazine."

its been 3 or 4 years since that day on middle school, and i have friends who are not struggling with unlearning the homophobic views the society fed us, who are whispering that they are LGBT+, and i have teachers, who are accepting of LGBT+, who dare mention the community.

i grew up from being that 13 year old kid that felt as if she was alone, that had to hide herself or bear being ridiculed, to a teenager, who still asks herself if she's actually bi, who has friends who supports queers, or is queer themselves.

yet we still can't talk about ourselves.

the governmet itself is against us.

we dont even dare to daydream about gay marriage being legal.

when we talk about being bi or gay, how beatiful we find the same sex, we whisper. we speak english, because the rest of classroom's english is not as good as ours to understand what we're talking about.

its better if they dont understand what we're talking about, i learned it that day in middleschool.

and i wonder, how many of those boys were actually part of the LGBT community, or if they ever realize they werent straight or cis as they thought.

if they ever find their peace with themselves.

i fear that they'll kick their kids out of their houses bc those children will be gay, trans, bi etc.

and i dont really see hope for those stupid boys or this fucking country.

We've still middle ages in Poland

Hello, I hope you'll never come to Poland if you're a part of LGBTQ+ community. Please check this tweet, because here's almost everything what happened in only past few days.

Martin Mycielski🇪🇺🇵🇱 on Twitter

“⚠️"#LGBT-free zone". These stickers are distributed by Gazeta Polska, a nation-wide paper, supportive of the authoritarian right-wing Law &

This one tweet is about "LGBT-free zone" stickers, that are a "bonus" for one of Polish newspaper, but under this tweet you can see videos from yesterday's pride march. LGBTQ+ community was peacefully marching when extreme nationalists came and started to do a fucking mess. They started to throw rocks and petards in people. Also 3 guys beat a girl only because she was taking part in march. So many people were hurt only because of some idiots. Watching a videos you can hear "wypierdalać" what means "get the fuck out". I didn't watch every one of video, because I'm too pissed off to do that :/ Also that's not the end, because our government didn't comment this situation yet and under these tweets you can see so much of hatred.

I'm so mad and sad, because... How anyone can think that this situation was okay?? Some people are saying, that's because they "provoked" nationalists to do that.

I don't know how, but that is not a reason to act like an animal (when even animals won't be acting like that). I want really to move out of this place, but I'm too young and I don't have money for this. I'm scared that one day I'll be also beaten up only because I'm not who they want me to be.

I guess I didn't write everything, but I heard that for example BBC was writing about this too, so I hope other countries will know, that Poland is a fucking disaster. Also I'm sorry if you didn't understood everything I said ;-; I hope you'll find your answers on Twitter.

It’s weird to say that, to expose me like that, but for the first time in my life i have felt true fear. I’m a Brazilian gay man, and I saw 46% of my country vote for a Nazi in the first round of presidential elections, I’ve seen his voters threat, stalk and beat minorities, I’ve seen then screaming on the top of their lungs on a subway to us gays to calm down, because Bolsonaro is coming, and “he will kill the fags”.

This man already called a congresswoman a whore, already said that he wouldn’t rape her because she wasn’t enough for him, that his son would never get on a relationship with a black or PoC woman because he’s well educated, he said that rather see his son dying on an accident then kissing a guy.

His vice president believe in racial whitening, both of them praise the military coup of 1964 that killed a thousand of innocent people and denied us of human rights and free speech, the extremist sector of the army and the evangelic church are both at his side.

I’ve never felt a pain so absurd, a despair of not even knowing were the people I love is, how they are, I spent hours trying to call them, text them, doing literally any form of contact to know if they were safe, I’m afraid of my safety, and even more afraid about their safety.

Those are extremely dark times, I’m sorry to bother, but Brazil is not that happy place anymore, full of diversity and joy like the first world like to portray us, to all the Brazilians that this text reach, we need to love each other and protect each other no matter what, they want us dead, we only have ourselves right now.
