I understand why you uploaded it.

My point was that one gay token prime minister that continues the oppressive politics won't change anything for the queer people living in France. It's a bit like Caitlyn Jenner, a trans woman who makes oppressive politics affecting queer and other minority communities. I don't think we gain anything from people like Caitlyn Jenner or the gay prime minister of France.
