Nigeria: 76 people arrested for organising a "gay wedding
More than 70 young people were arrested on Saturday by security forces on charges of organising a gay wedding in north-east Nigeria, where such unions are criminalised and violence against the LGBT+ community is widespread.
Religion did this.
Religion: condemning love between adults and approving of marriage between adults and minors.
Straight up. A while back Nazi incel Nick Fuentes defended child marriage and grooming, and most people in the replies agreed with him.
The relationship between pedophilia and religiosity/conservatism is as clear as day. Pedocon is as much of a theory as the theory of gravity.
I see a lot of comments that seem not to have read this relevant part of the article:
Gombe State, where the arrests took place on Saturday, is also one of the northern states with a Muslim majority where Islamic Sharia law is applied alongside the federal and state judicial systems.
Under Sharia law, homosexual relations are punishable by death. However, this sentence has never been applied in northern Nigeria. The NSCDC spokesman refused to say whether the suspects arrested on Saturday would be charged under Sharia law or ordinary law.
So, is Nigeria just that fucked up, or is it a specific city/region/administration?
