State Department issues travel alert for LGBTQ people, events abroad
The U.S. State Department issued a caution alert, warning U.S. citizens overseas to exercise increased caution related to violence against "LGBTQI+ persons and events.”
According to an administration official familiar with the matter, the alert is connected to the recent announcement from the FBI and Department of Homeland Security that foreign terrorist organizations might seek to exploit "LGBTQIA+-related events and venues," including events during 2024 Pride month, which begins in June.
Makes sense "Be alert in June, jackasses are targeting the rainbow flags"
And how about inside the United States?
The FBI has already issued cautions for domestic events. The state department only warns about issues abroad. This is in response to chatter, not a statement about how much safer the US is for LGBTQ people.
Where's the warning against red states and especially the south?
You are in FAR more danger inside the USA than almost anywhere else. Projection to idiots.

Fucking what
You're too entrenched in the stink to even know.
The US ranks 129th in the GPI out of 163. That's pretty awful. And when you actually live outside the US, you realize just how awful it is.
Just because most Americans are too brainwashed to notice it is not normal to be in perpetual fear, to have guns around you everywhere, to treat everyone like a threat, to have a constant surveillance of your property because of theft and vandalism, etc. These are not normal things in the world. These are American normals because the US is a shithole country.
I spend most of my time in a country where I don't lock my front door. I leave my wallet, phone, laptop, etc just out and about and walk away for hours sometimes to have fun in a park, beach, or just walk around the city. Nobody touches it. My car keys are on my windshield, just like everybody else. Comes in handy when the fuel delivery and car detail service comes around. That is what can be. The US is nothing like it, and won't ever be.
Looks like a lot of "almost" there...
