Positive. Scotland has its problems, sure, but social acceptance isn’t one of them.

Majority of Norway is pretty positive, but affected by that fugly righ-wing trend going on. Rhetoric in the media has mainly been on "protect the children from the pedophiles and 'radical gender ideology', whether or not pride and diversity has a place in schools, the terfs are loud, flags vandalized by young angry boys. ..But other than that I'm locked TF in 🏳️‍🌈

@golv_marco that’s terrible. Are you protected by the Police, or do you feel that the government is against the community too?

@roast.rescue.repeat A part of the government is against the conservative part, a part of the population too, but there is also the part that supports the community. Also sorry, my English is Bad 😓

@golv_marco your English is great. I’m really sorry to hear about your situation, but I’m grateful to you for sharing. When I’ve spent time in coffee producing countries, I’ve often noted that LGBTQ representation and advocacy could be much more supportive of local people. I’m looking at ways in which the coffee community can help with that. Seu inglês é ótimo. Lamento muito saber da sua situação, mas sou grato por compartilhar. Quando passei um tempo em países produtores de café, notei frequentemente que a representação e a defesa LGBTQIA+ poderiam ser muito mais favoráveis ​​à população local. Estou buscando maneiras pelas quais a comunidade cafeeira pode ajudar com isso.

@roast.rescue.repeat Thanks I'm trying to practice more. I think this is cool, Brazil is a big coffee producer but in the most rural areas are where there is more homophobia

@golv_marco right! And I think / hope that’s where we can make a difference. Is it okay if I ask you for advice on this once I have a better idea of ways we can help?

@roast.rescue.repeat I don't think I can help with, this is not something I lived, I'm from the big city where the community is much more accepted, sorry😓
