Moving to Ireland as a gay man

Hey folks, so basically I had intended to move out from India to any place that is just more welcoming, and end up choosing Ireland. I’ve applied to the universities and was excited to move out but for the past 2 weeks, I’ve been getting news of how Indians are getting beat up in racist attacks in the country just for being Indians. And it’s just very scary, I’m neither a physically strong person nor mentally. I’m a very weak willed individual. All my life, the only thing I’ve wanted to be a happy and free gay man and I was hoping Ireland will provide me with that. But now, it’s seems unlikely and feels like everything is always against me. And now I don’t know what to do. ( my family don’t know I’m gay ) but they do not want me to move out to somewhere this dangerous. And honestly I don’t even know what I’m expecting from you folks but any hopeful words would be appreciated.
