    Dang, you know, one of the criticisms of Xi I thought was actually valid was his stance on LGBT issues but if you’re telling me he’s actively promoting queerness to people in the West, that’s based AF, more power to him.

      Yep, the implication is that “forcing gender politics” means tricking people into thinking they are queer, rather than recognizing that they are. Again, this undermines queer identity, and yet they claim to be an ally and that queer people should be thanking them for their lip-service.
