To be fair, sh.itjust.works' admin thinks Russia and China are pushing "gender ideology" to radicalize western youths against the US, and it's home to NCD and MWoG, 2 of the most right-wing communities on Lemmy.
Saying that the russians are the ones pushing "gender ideology" on the west is an absolutely senile opinion to hold. For years every russian news channel has been hollering that it's The West(TM) poisoning russian society with "LGBT propaganda". Did that guy really try to pull a "no u" on the entirety of russian state media?
What the actual fuck did I just read?
"I'm not a transphobe, but more people realising they're trans is a psyop by h o s t i l e g o v e r n m e n t s and trans people should sit quietly in the corner if they don't want to get hatecrimed."
🤡🤡🤡
This is a stereotype that predates the internet.
Just the standard affair for users of that comm, sadly.
lol this is insane
What are NCD and MWoG?
Non-credible defense, basically 4chan but for the millitary, and overwhelmingly loves western millitaries and NATO.
MeanwhileOnGrad is the other, it's an anti-communist instance maintained by a "former" gamergater that hasn't changed their views too much considering they complain about "wokeness" and "forcing equity." That's actually where the transphobic admin comments came from.
The two comms share a lot of users, and form some of the most active right-wing userbases on Lemmy. Both openly maintain that they aren't right wing, but there's blatant open transphobia and complaining about DEI from prominent users that gets highly upvoted there, so more than anything that's telling about what the actual stances are.
Lemmy mainstream is pro US empire. MAGA tends not to be, even if moderate US politics are. AFAIK, the brainworm supporting US empire is if the DNC supports the most zionist neocon candidate/President with D as a label, that all of his warmongering and oil/weapons industry enrichment must be virtuous, and they adopt it as an identity essential to their lives, because they need to heroize politicians.
I follow NCD mainly for the memes about Russian military, I have never paid enough attention to see any gender discussion or similar...
NCD is Non Credible Defense, a military meme community. Not sure what MWoG is.
