🌈💰NO GAY? NO WAY you're getting my money says World Bank to Uganda because of its "anti-LGBTQ law".

Woke World Bank is pausing all new lending for Ugandan government as anti-LGBTQ law apparently contradicts bank's values (didn't know banks have values 😐).

🗣Uganda's Anti-Homosexuality Act fundamentally contradicts the World Bank Group's values. We believe our vision to eradicate poverty on a livable planet can only succeed if it includes everyone irrespective of race, gender, or sexuality - Bank.
