Christopher Rufo and Libs of TikTok have uploaded proof that public school teachers are teaching that Native Americans celebrated their "two-spirited" tribe members, and it was only after European colonizers took over that the idea of the "gender binary" was forced upon them. Until the settlers landed, there was no idea of male and female, apparently.
A post on X is getting a lot of attention for similar reasons. The argument is that the only reason Palestine was ever "homophobic" was because the British criminalized gay marriage.
This is what kicked it off:
sof’s library ✧˖°. 🥄 (@folkoftheshelf) ~ The only reason Palestine was ever 'homophobic' was because the BRITISH MANDATE criminalized gay marriage, Palestinians, once in control of their own government, legalized it in the 1950s, about thirty years before is*ael.
not that that should even matter here.
Uh oh ... enter "Community Notes" to burst that ridiculous brain fart bubble ...
Community Notes got hold of that one:
There was no Palestinian state until 1988. From 1948 to 1967, the West Bank was controlled by Jordan. Egypt controlled the Gaza Strip.
Jordan decriminalised same-sex relations in 1951. They did not legalise gay marriage.
So there was nothing, say, in their religion that opposed same-sex relationships? It was the British?
Ah, so that's why mooslims take such delight in torturing and executing homosexuals, eh?

Guy Benson (@guypbenson) ~ Tens of thousands of likes for a viral tweet claiming that the Palestinian government (?) legalized gay marriage in the 1950’s (??) once the evil British were gone. The Brits, you see, were the “only reason Palestine was ever homophobic”! Evil, yet hilarious misinformation.
AG (@AGHamilton29) ~ 64K likes for this insane tweet claiming that Palestinians are accepting of gay people. In reality, gay acts were temporarily decriminalized in 1951 because Jordan controlled The West Bank, but there are almost no gay rights in Gaza or West Bank today.
Back in reality, Hamas regularly tortured and executed people suspected of being gay in Gaza. Even their own senior commanders:
Gabe, Bella, and their humom Susan (@SWestler) ~ How do they explain them killing gay people now?
Woketards don't explain - they emote.
ZIONISTA (@zionista4ever) ~ She turned off comments ... LOL! So, are the Brit's to blame for this?
neo (@blndsundoll4neo) ~ This delusional Gen Z myth that Africans, Muslims, and Native Americans were pro-LGBT or “queer-friendly” before the evil white colonizer showed up will never not be funny!
kaitlin (@thefactualprep) ~ Leave it to Commie idiots to pretend inherently bigoted cultures are some socially liberal paradise of acceptance.
Well, here's the thing about woketards - they're infantile morons who earnestly believe that, if they can fantasize about it, it must be true.
