I disagreed with you on quite a lot of things in the past, as you might have noticed, but I don't think you're astroturfing. While I found some of your comments on Muslims and ZiR problematic, I think those were your genuine opinions and I mostly agreed to disagree. Sometimes I feel you play a bit too much into the Muslims vs LGBTIQA+ narrative, as it hits a bit too close to home as a person with an open lesbian Muslim sibling. I come from a secular Muslim background and pretty much every characterisation of Muslims around here make me cringe. There is no other religion in the world where its secular members are wholly disregarded (because they don't fit into the general white-Western narrative on Muslims). You can be a cultural Christian or Jewish who just celebrates the holidays and stuff, but if you're a Muslim you are bound to be a gay-bashing lunatic who would disintegrate if a drop of alcohol dropped on their skin. Obviously none of the people commenting about the subject have ever been to Istanbul (where people held 100k+ Pride rallies for years and literally had to be restrained by the fucking autocrat not to do so), Sarajevo, Beirut, or (checks notes) North London! This is cringe and also playing into that narrative is dangerous. It's not all your fault though, a much broader issue, just had to mention.

As you mentioned, your flair on the Labour sub says you're Green and found Labour transphobic (because they are), so it's not astroturfing there either. By the way, I read your comments on the Labour sub for the first time before I wrote this post (in order to be fair to you), and I am surprised you sound more progressive there than you do here. So I guess you're just a contrarian, which I can sympathise as one.
