Saying “leave if you don’t like your country’s imperialism” is no different from saying “anyone who are not as racist as me should go kill themselves”.

The phenomenom of ‘using queer rights to make your crimes against humanity look pretty’ is called pinkwashing if anyone needs a short word to describe it in future

Y’know some people claim that Russia recently declaring all LGBT groups as terrorist organisations is because the LGBT support groups are all CIA plants.
This is not a justification for Russia obviously, whether or not the CIA plant thing is true persecuting your own country’s queer community is always wrong. I just find it interesting that people have no problem condemning Russia and pointing out that this is a bullshit justification for homophobia but with Israel calling into question the morality of “hamas allegedly hides among civilians so killing Palestinian civilians is justified” will have people compare you to Hitler.

For Cuba and South America there is Tropico and for USSR there is Workers and Resources. What would be the simulation game for Laos/ Vietnam/ China/ North Korea/ East Germany/ other socialist projects?
They are really acting like blahaj users now aren’t they? “It’s okay to be bigoted to the other party if their politics is more radical than yours.” In this case replace transphobia with ableism and behind-screen psychoanalysing. I also remember one blahaj mod who, after one of you guys said that ableist mods should be booted, said that booting bigoted mods makes you a tankie.
Sigh I set up my account on db0 cuz they they were 1) federated with both hexbear and the rest of the larger fediverse and 2) blocked chud instances. Seems like time here will be short.
“Ableism and smuglord attitude is bad” is sectarianism?

Is it inaccurate to say that these types of people are just the “”“left”“” wing version of stupidpol/ class reductionism:
Class reductionists (assuming they are not just plants) say we need to be lenient on the working class bigotry to not alienate them and that women, lgbtq and minorities are just a ‘distraction’ for the working class. What they ignore is that ‘distraction’ does not mean ignorable. Even if you don’t give a rat’s ass about minorities you still have to get your own neo-nazi base to stop using minorities as punching bags, if only for them to not be distracted. The result is that their new nazi base pulls them right, class reductionists fail to make any good progress and minorities get driven away and back to liberal idealogies due to those being ‘safer’ to them in the short term, a behaviour that capitalists are happy to exploit.
Liberals insists that socialists/ communists etc. should join democrats and anticommunists in order to make ‘progress’ or push democrats left later on. However they condemn all attempts at trying to get democrats to something decent. What is actually happening is that democrats are pushing them right (as shown by them victim-blaming disappointed arabs and accusing anti-genocide trans folk of lying about their queerness) and their more mask-off reactionary and condescending attitude pushes people away from them.
Tldr liberals and class reductionists claim to push the reactionaries they coddle left but don’t actually do it and as such said reactionaries push them even further right.
Gamergators: religious fundies and feminists are just as bad because they both want to take away my video game treats
Hexbear: liberals and what they label conservatives may be rhetorically different but ultimately they both protect the imperial core because they depend on it
Liberals: clearly the above two groups are exactly the same
“What goes around comes around” just like when Israel did nakba right?
How many of these ‘hexbearhatesjews’ or ‘hexbearwilldie’ users have there been? I noticed quite a bit.
Singapore itself is an Israeli ally and has been trying to frame the whole war as just a case of racial and religious disagreement rather than colonialism. It is also participating in Operation Prosperity Garden (the US-backed operation to stop Ansar Allah from enforcing the red sea blockade on Israel). I feel for the charity workers. The government’s hands however are stained with both Palestinian and Singaporean blood.
And that’s why these ghouls need to kill the hostages before they come back; so that there will be less people with first-hand testimonies that Palestinians are not demons from hell.
Reminds me of a reddit conversation I had regarding Anne Rice after she died; aside from harassing fanfic writers Anne Rice was also part of Stop the Goodreads Bullies (For those who don’t know, STGRB is what you get when a bunch of authors and their fans set up their own kiwifarms to attack bloggers that call out bigoted writing and rating manipulation while claiming to be an anti-bullying movement. Gamergate’s own wiki last time I checked sees them in positive light.).
When I pointed out the latter to the OP that wanted to discuss her death OP and other users were like ‘she just died’, ‘there are worse people out there’ or ‘she supports lgbtq/ is pro-democrat’. Later on other redditors commented that ‘yeah in view of what I said she is kind of a pos’. OP deleted the thread after that.
Also isn’t that Ugandan judge the voted in favor of Israel now the ICJ’s vice-president. How hard will that make things for South Africa and Nicaragua?
So like shinigami eyes for zionists?
These ‘x issues are dividing the working class’ lines is just trickle-down economics with race/ gender/ orientation etc.
