LGBTQ Muslims Call for Permanent Ceasefire in Front of Stonewall
One-hundred LGBTQ Muslims gathered for a jummah prayer for Palestine in front of the Stonewall National Monument on Friday to demonstrate that there is “no pride in genocide.”
“Queer Muslim New Yorkers are rising up in solidarity with Palestinians, and through a queer Muslim-led interfaith prayer, they will stand in solidarity with the Palestinian people who are facing genocide, starvation, and ethnic cleansing at the hands of the Israeli government backed by the United States,” organizers said in a statement.
“Queer communities face historical discrimination, prejudice, violence, criminalization, lack of proper healthcare and/or gender affirming care, and more — and here in the U.S. queer activists have been rising up against increased LGBTQ+ attacks, yet their struggles are being exploited in a dangerous narrative war to suggest that there would be no place for queer people in Palestine,”

BTW since we still do not know Lego's stance on the whole genocide Israel is doing, but we know Disney, a huge partner to Lego, is proudly pro-Israel, and Lego has made no efforts atm to denounce Disney's words nor pull any sets from any shelves.
I would recommend if you're a fan of ANY Lego media, watch it ILLEGALLY! If you wanna buy a cool Lego set, hold off on it, please, boycotting companies and not funding them CAN work, it CAN keep them down, I promise!
