You can just say you don’t care because judging by your first comment, you clearly don’t. I admittedly don’t know much about the laws and policies of the Middle East (I don’t think you do either), but I think it’s safe to assume that they vary by region. It’s such a large and vast part of the world with so much diversity, and so for you to call the entire a shithole definitely makes you a racist.
As a queer woman, I also don’t need to be reminded of how shitty the world is for many of us. Also, just because many of the countries may or may not have highly oppressive laws, there are many innocent people living in those countries that don’t support those laws. Regardless of the laws, policies, or views of those countries that doesn’t justify having a genocide be committed against an entire group of people. It also certainly doesn’t just you calling the entire region a shithole.
