@guppybasket THANK YOU SO MUCH... I've been trying to improve in textures & coloring... Do you want some of my brushes since I saw you used ibis? ( I forgot to comment )
Sultan Mahmud Shah II killed a man's wife over some jackfruits, Sultan Mansur Shah sent Hang Tuah to die over a slander, Parameswara executed his own wife over rumours. But yeah writing Hang Tuah as gay is where yall draw the line
this is called dehumanization, the number one ingredients in prejudice. they failed the first step to see LGBT as real human first and foremost. the rest bigotry follow through.
i still couldnt get over this one unemployed cish3t went pissy “aku tak faham diorang gay dapat kerja bagus bagus” during that spa raid. it pisses them off bcs they CAN’T wrap around their head that queer people can be your doctors, your teachers and your gov officers.
in their head, they stereotyped LGBT people as drag queens, sajat and maknyah that they only see in their phone or TV. they all seems different than their circle, so they assume no one in their “normal” circle are like that (when reality its more than you think but they are not safe to come out to you)
the same way for homophobes that consume BL. to them, gay community is a concept, fiction and a performance. they can kiss only in my fanfic not in front of me though!
all these stripping LGBT humanity even further which makes it easier for them to justify their discrimination.
