Just had a conversation with someone in Egypt about accessing Grindr. Apparently, the police will arrest you for homosexuality, and they use Grindr to perform sting operations.
I’m curious why the local government doesn’t just access their mobile internet traffic logs, instead of setting up entire sting operations.
The officers then have a legitimate reason for using grinder, catch a few on-duty, and pound a few off-duty.
So, if you’re gay, there would be a clear incentive to become a cop. If another gay guy breaks your heart one day, you can just throw him in jail as a part of doing your job.
If you want to break any law, you have a clear incentive to be a cop. That’s always been true.
The same way humans have always done things under the noses of their oppressers. Hidden languages, signs, handshakes, passwords, hidden messages in pictures and books.
You can never truly keep someone from being who they are to their core. A gay man will be a gay man the same way a straight man will be straight man. Be it in the shadows, behind closed doors, or on the balcony for the world to see. Humans will find a way to be who they are inside.
