Oh I absolutely get that fear. Queer ppl with other privileged identities can share the same concern. The thing is that last bit though - were moderate malays invisible or something? We’re right here. Always been here. Bila buka topik, don’t want to campur tho -“ah, never mind la your thing one”. That’s what I’m responding/reacting to, that very specific willingness to don’t bother (and to use DukeGR4’s comment as an example pov that I’m also talking about here). Of course have to stay safe - I’m just saying oh now worry la, dulu org lain kena sell down the river tolong cover line pun barely there. Don’t even have to speak up unnecessarily, that just invites trouble - but to swerve and use a small thing example: no need so excessively worried if this biskut or that cake halal right in front of me if I didn’t ask you to worry (and maaaaaybe that person is unofficially non-practicing but can’t say nothing cos it’s a crime). In terms of where I’m situating my response is not like Terengganu where mainly KT yg ada non-Malays. I’m talking about Klang Valley and similar places where it’s demographically a situation of at least two ethnic socioeconomic majoritarian blocs. I think from this pov is why ppl always bring up Borneo enviously but part of that social pact is looking out for each other.
