When reason, logic and actual arguments fail, what can we rely on to maintain our homophobia? Here to help the confused homophobe are a group of Lebanese homophobes – the best kind of homophobes. When the Facebook page “Lebanese Memes” posted an image of Lebanese LGBT NGO “Helem” (Dream in Arabic) at a Gay Pride Parade in Canada, the best kind of homophobes came out to say the darndest things.

  1. Some of those comments just gave me cancer😂 can’t stop laughing.
    It’s also lebanese memes’s fault, let them stick to memes without giving the option for such debates, as it’s not even a debatable topic. Wether they want it or no, we’re a part of the lebanese society

  2. Hi Gino,

    While I agree that the Lebanese society is unfortunately far from accepting people with a different sexuality (or any other non-conforming differences for that matter, be it skin color, religious opinions, etc., but I digress), I still feel that the names should have been redacted. Yes, these people who commented may be bigots, but this shouldn’t open up the door for public stoning.

    Always enjoying your posts.

    1. Hi Carl

      I just copy pasted from the Facebook Page. It’s public and has way more daily viewers than my blog. You can find them on the photo’s link freely insulting Gay people, calling for their deaths or isolation. They don’t mind being bigots because it is not their freedom being denied here. I’d agree if it were on a private page but they didn’t mind writing what they wrote ‘in front’ of 188,000+ fans.

      There’s nothing here that was ‘taken’, I could have copy-pasted the message without the name and still include the source which will lead you to the name anyway. I can’t copy the comments without citing them and linking the original source. I can’t write an article with a sentence like “so this is what some people wrote on one of some page’s photos”. I’d have to link to the photo which, I repeat, is public.

      I don’t see how this has anything with “opening up the door for public stoning”. I’m not calling for anything against them. They’re free to write what they want, and I’m free to write about them. I don’t see how threatening to murder people or isolating them deserves linking to but not copy-pasting.

      Cheers,
      Joey

  3. I wouldn’t blame Lebanese Memes. I know it may seem like there are lots of homophobes out there, but we won’t turn them around without these public discussions , which fb provides a platform for. Without those, there is not even the slightest chance to make them slowly tone it down and reason up.

  4. oh please !!u have all the shit happening in ur country ! everything forbidden by all religions !!! so if u wanna apply religion start by cleaning ur souls hypocrites!! and let everyone does whatever they wannna do ! gay ,straight ..as long as they don’t bother u leave the fuck them alone and fix ur own shit !!!

  5. Im lebanese muslim and as strajght as they come yet you ppl never fail to Amaze me at your ignorance. You have problems with different sects combining same genders msrrying etc . Look at our country where its at. The seperation to each other bc of such petty things and you wanf to relesse your anger and project your own *taboo* tendencies on these ppl whove done nothing to u. Grow the fuck up
