This is another widespread trope on Twitter at the moment. It’s ’the Queers went too far’ & includes strawmen arguments as in here (1) ungrateful Queer ppl & (2) in other cases, the inclusion of trans ppl in the community. It’s a ridiculously stupid & rightwing piece of rhetoric. Let’s examine it*

💔 All that remains of the Pokrovsk mine administration.
Before Russia's arrival, thousands of people worked here.
Considering that Russia has no need for the mines, its own industry is in crisis, and there's nowhere to put the coal, it's clear no one will restore it. They'll flood it and abandon.
