    Yep, and then further down the article:

    American evangelical groups have played a role in pushing hateful policies

    In reality, the US in particular has influenced or supported anti-LGBTQ policies and attitudes in Uganda, particularly via evangelical groups like the Fellowship Foundation, which had a hand in crafting the 2009 “kill the gays” bill, according to a 2020 report from Open Democracy.

    Us Brits started it off, then the American Bible bashers keep it going. Tale as old as time.

    This is so sad. I don’t want to come off as “le enlightened atheist” but this is the harm that extremist religions cause.
