Neither is the US. Have you been paying any kind of attention?
We had to throw bricks, go to prison, and die in public to get what little we have in spite of the state, and the second we got the tiniest shred of equity, they're working on oppressing us even more than before Stonewall.
You're talking to someone who's been explicitly terminated from a job explicitly for being gay. Legally. With no uncertain terms that was the reason.
Not to mention my queer ass will just fucking die next time I can't afford life-saving healthcare.
I can get gay married in the USA. There currently are legal protections against discrimination in the USA. The USA is without question a better nation for LGBT+ rights than China.
You have legal recourses available to ypu in the USA if your claim is true. There are none in China.
Healthcare is not free in China either. It's almost as if theyare really terrible at pursuing leftism.
China doesn't have millions dying each year from lack of access to healthcare, and every single person on Xiaohongshu is learning how shockingly bad it is here in the USA, while we are unlearning the Red Scare propaganda we've been fed. I suggest you join us.
