For posting all the anonymous reactionary bullshit that you can't post anywhere else.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No bigotry of any kind, including ironic bigotry.
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: Do not post public figures, these should be posted to c/El Chisme
I know that there are a lot of trans people on hexbear, and I know their beliefs are sincere. What I don’t understand is how they square the fact that they would be brutally suppressed, r*****, tortured, murdered by the very groups/governments they unwaveringly love and support. It sickens me. Is it a manifestation of self-hatred? I just don’t get why they would degrade themselves like this.
Why would they spend all the effort making this post when their argument is still "you would get thrown off a roof in [country that scares me]"
Also, ideologies are influenced by material conditions. Reactionary ideologies including transphobia have a tailwind in bad economic conditions, this is obvious in the USA now. Reducing Iran's (or gaza, yemen, etc) material conditions through warfare only increases the potential of reactionary ideologies to become a problem.
Radlibs don't realize that them allowing rainbow imperialism and repeating its narratives spreads reactionary anti-imperialism to oppose it. Every rainbow covered bomb they drop creates a new righteous homophobe yet they keep supporting it. Don’t they see how they are making a reactionary soup with their bullshit and lack of solidarity? Ceding the moral high ground for what? Feeling better about their imperialist nature?
