> it’s American evangelicals running off to Uganda to stone gays.

Is that something that happened? That sounds horrible. Do you have any more info?



Not literally, but they did manage to get homosexuality re-criminalized in Uganda.

"...many extreme evangelical groups started to recognize that the fight against LGBTQ+ rights in the United States was a losing battle. These groups then shifted focus to Uganda, which was seen as fertile ground for this anti-gay ideology..."


No mention on stoning, though...


Yes, I think GGP was being hyperbolic.

Still a shameful state of affairs.
