What the fuck. Do they do this with all rainbow clothing?

Yes, colours are outlawed in Malaysia now.

Seriously I wouldn't be suprised.

TFW you find out that Ian Miles Cheong is just an average Malaysian, no wonder why that guy is such a Nazi bootlicking asshole.

Average earthling. The majority of the planet is pretty conservative and bigoted and always has been. We are only hearing these bigots now because many developing nations have finally reached the second or third stage of the Maslow pyramid. Before they were too busy putting food on the table to worry about queer people.

The fact that over 50% of the population of the world has gone through or attempted progressive revolutions with the support of the majority of the populations within each revolting country in just the last century disagrees with you. Malaysia itself attempted to have a progressive revolution, and it was western meddling that overthrew the progressives in favor of hardline militant religious nuts.
