"To be sure, Esack and Mahomed also challenge Massad on various levels, such as his lack “of any récognition whatsoever of the harsh négative effects of heteronormative sociétal structures on Muslim or Arab societies” 123 and his dismissive attitude towards queer identity politics. For this can serve to ignore the genuine grievances of (and, by extension, deny justice for) marginalized queer Muslims “struggling for acceptance and récognition, both spiritually and socially, as individuals, activists, and groups.” 124"
This is true Massad engaged in queer erasure using language that is similar to what Islamists are advocating. Queer people being a foregain threat while they have their own history of being oppressed it seems like some moids don't want us to realize we are all trans women and we share the same oppression and interests. But also yes Islamophobic pinkwashing is a problem it doesn't happen only in Israel but also in Netherlands the fascist party wants want to protect their gays from "barbaric sexist Muslims". Sooo yes you need to do a distinction between statist, racist and colonialist propaganda and queer liberation from patriarchy. Massad doesn't care to do that distinction.
