Amsterdam had to ban the use of rainbow flags in student homes because they became a target of arsonists. The same Amsterdam has incidents of violence against gay people just walking the street.
There’s a lot of towns in The Netherlands that are dealing with reactionary violence against gay people and symbols.
And then I haven’t even talked about the increase of fascist popularity.
Just because we have a few gay bars and a pride doesn’t mean we are a gay heaven or something. Homophobia is very much still a problem in The Netherlands. So much that I didn’t see gay people openly walking hand in hand an kissing in public until I moved to Belgium. So much that I, wearing a bit more flamboyant clothing, get harassed and intimidated in my Dutch hometown. And I’m not even gay.
That map is full of hipocrisy, they claim Italy is “mostly safe” but in certain - expecially rural - places lgbtq+ prole get literally lynched in the streets n police does Jack shit about it, also i don’t think ex-yugoslavia is a good place for “gay tourism”
Edit: also Ukraine is just “a little dangerous” yeah, the nazi country ran by nazis with an army choke full of nazis, with nazi parades and nazi war criminals celebrates as heroes and founding fathers
Just reread the map and what the fuck does “completely safe” mean? I’m not in the mood to be mistreated to an utter horror show but I promise if I searched “Canada anti-gay hate crimes” online I’d be met with a plethora of evidence to the contrary of it being completely fucking safe. Like, are there no even individual homophobes in Canada? The jolly maple syrup wholesome Keanu northerners all just love LGBT people?
