Prioritized Outrage
In America, homosexuals are suing small business owners for refusing to supply goods or services for same sex marriages. The business owners refused to supply these things to same sex marriage for religious reasons.
In Iran, homosexuals are slowly suffocated when hoisted by the neck by cranes. Their crime was being homosexual, which Muslim religious law makes punishable by death.
Which of these is worthy of more outrage? Which one is getting it?
When a civil rights push is successful, it tends to lose all sense of proportion.
