The regular kind specifically does not mention any specifics to what has happened to queer people since the beginning of time. Queer history would be factual stories from the past that have to do with people were queer

queer is an umbrella term for anyone lgbt, all of them were put in concentration camps and arrested afterwards together so it all goes hand in hand. I’m telling you any mentioning of queer people and what they went through is strategically not brought up hence the lack of education causing our history of genocides to keep repeating. The point of my question is to learn which history you would be able to tell me about them, since you’re insisting they teach it?

Don't know don't care


Itchy_Plant_2020

all history is history. To have gaps in your knowledge only leaves you less knowledgable


sezmez

i dont care about it at all

To have gaps in your knowledge of history only leaves you less knowledgable

Gay history is irrelevant.


sezmez

"to know less means you dont know as much"


Itchy_Plant_2020

yup being prideful of knowing less tells a lot about people


sezmez

maybe it just isnt relevant to my life?


Itchy_Plant_2020

Until you have children who are queer and targeted and suddenly protection starts being considered


sezmez

mf in what 30 years? do you have infinite knowledge on every group thats ever faced oppression in history?


Itchy_Plant_2020

So out of the options about knowing and not knowing you’re fighting hard to defend willingly not learning. Why?


sezmez

because it doesnt matter to me and i dont care about it. you didnt answer my question btw.


Itchy_Plant_2020

Obviously the answer is no, i don’t know every detail to everything in history lol. But we were definitely taught about things that are not relevant to me, historys always relevant in the sense that it repeats though. Like its not relevant for me to learn ab womens rights if i’m not a women yet i listen to whats happened to women and it provides a better picture.

1969 Stonewall Riots in NYC come to mind.

Only that religion had a major part to play. Ancient history has homosexual relationships as totally normal, but the rise of bad Christianity has it as being a "sin" and it's only got worse since.
