Makes me wonder if one of my posts got noticed in that hellhole. I HAVE TO BE THERE SOMEWHERE.

    mfw like fuckin 20% of this community is straight up trans lol

    just ignore all the pro-lgbt shit we’ve constantly posted, personal stories regarding our struggles w it

    ignore all the pages-long critiques of patriarchy and misogyny.

    these are those people incapable of accepting truth when it opposes their own view. they dehumanize us and anoint us reactionary homo/trans\phobic misogynists because they will never visit our space in good faith. these are those liberals it is best to save breath against and just patiently hope that they have absolutely lovely re-educational experiences when our primary goals are achieved.

      I really have 0 tolerance for these people because they really are unashamedly chauvinistic in the most idealistic way possible.

      I’ll support my homophobic country everyday rather than any liberal utopian reincarnation these people concoct in their heads because the fact of the matter is that the people here are overwhelmingly queerphobic.

      That is the reality.

      I’ll support China’s BRI building a highspeed rail line right through my gasp homophobic hometown.

      What a naive, ahistorical and disgustingly parochial view of international relations, politics and society.

        Western countries were also very extreme at punishing it until not very long time ago. People will criticize the gay rights in Soviet Union and ignore what Ronald Reagan did at the same time.

      And the way reddit is designed, you can’t even argue back without being heavily downvoted and surpressed as soon as you make a point.

    “As Marxists we must oppose everything the west approves of and approve of everything the west opposes”?

    TIL Marxism is when contrarianism

      I mean, the West enslaved my ancestors, stripped us of our names, cultures, religions, and history; and left me in the ass-out position to have my body and blood colonized because my mother just haaaad to go and fuck herself a white man. If I didn’t oppose the West in all things geopolitical, I’d be no better than the crackers that tainted me and mine.

        Comrade, you speak as if white people are a virus or something. What are you on about?

          Less a virus, and more something to utterly cut away from. There’s precious few ways for me to explain it without pissing myself off; but the neatest breakdown I can come to is that when I started questioning where the anti-Blackness I grew up with came from, it always tracked back to whiteness and its influence on my family. By now, I thoroughly resent it, and see the concept of whiteness as something that needs constant paring out.

            Except in the post above you did not speak of “whiteness” (whatever that is), nor of anti-blackness. You specifically spoke of being “tainted”, because, as you put it, your “mother just haaaad to go and fuck herself a white man”. So again, I have to ask - what are you talking about? Do you consider white supremacist views to be inherent? Passed down genetically? Do you consider yourself somehow worse off than your “pure” peers, because your father is white?

        I understand, of course many major things should be rejected, but my point was if we simply did the opposite of what they do we would be anarchists. The opposite of colonialism is not necessarily Marxism, however Marxism is the correct path to take to overthrow colonial powers. Do you see what I mean?

    Unfortunately for the redditors, as they had been conditioned by the state to be stupid, did not realize downvoting and complaining about evil tankies would not stop the progress of socialism.
