Berlin CSD Attack: Beyond Outrage, Queer Fear Persists

An attack on the Christopher Street Day (CSD) parade in Berlin's Tiergarten has sparked reflexive blame, particularly towards Islamists. However, the article argues that the more pressing issue is the ongoing threat and fear experienced by queer individuals who have lived with such dangers for years. The author criticizes the tendency to vent hatred on social media, especially against Islamism and Islam, while noting that many leftists still underestimate the threat of Islamism. The piece is a commentary from the Freitag publication, focusing on the emotional and political aftermath rather than specific details of the attack.
