Whenever I criticize "Western values" rhetoric, people always respond by saying "so you're saying LGBT rights are bad?"
-
So this is a disingenuous bullshit argument that's supposed to stall and befuddle me, or make me look hypocritical to observers
"Western values" is a dogwhistle for Western—white—people.It's only when talking to me they pretend LGBT/feminism has anything to do with it

Even in response to this thread people are obstinately pretending my aversion to "Western values" rhetoric means I don't support LGBT rights

I've had more than a couple white guys try to gaslight me over refugees because I'm gay.

"Don't you know they hate you?" More than "Values Voters"? Yeah...

It's not though. Western values are freedom, safety, right to a fair trial, etc. We can't take those things for granted.

Only white people get those "Western" perks though. Hence the dog whistle

We recently legalized same sex marriage here in Germany. You can probably guess how many defenders of "western values" supported it.
