This is such a cryptic headline for anyone unfamiliar. Even reading the article its not immediately clear without the context of the community this was posted to.

It was literally answered right by Google's AI when i googled it if you're not aware the history of queer people in the world enough to know about a big issue that happened in a major global actor's military in 1993 until 2011.

I always felt like there isn't the shaming on the internet for the intellectual laziness like there used to be. It used to be the responsibility of the reader to take a moment and educate themselves, but now we proudly proclaim not only did we not do the bare minimum, but the OP was bad for not spoon feeding us?

There's already so little interaction with the posted content here and you can't even bother to try?
