dank memes

Rules:

  1. All posts must be memes and follow a general meme setup.

  2. No unedited webcomics.

  3. Someone saying something funny or cringe on twitter/tumblr/reddit/etc. is not a meme. Post that stuff in !the_dunk_tank@www.hexbear.net, it's a great comm.

  4. Va*sh posting is haram and will be removed.

  5. Follow the code of conduct.

  6. Tag OC at the end of your title and we'll probably pin it for a while if we see it.

  7. Recent reposts might be removed.

  8. Tagging OC with the hexbear watermark is praxis.

  9. No anti-natalism memes. See: Eco-fascism Primer

I get the point. Now, all my aprons come from Pakistan, how are women's rights doing there? Or India? Or Bangladesh?

"Better than before women were employed in factories", OK fine. But this comment should be indistinguishable from r/neoliberal if that place weren't nazis in denial

Its good to be sceptical, but just because one person tells a lie, doesn't make that statement universally a lie.

Nazi neolibs are not speaking in good faith.

It's under the BJP so obviously not lmao

[–] jackmarxist@hexbear.net 29 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Women rights are still better in India compared to Pakistan or Bangladesh. Pretty much due to the country aligning with Socialist principles post independence.

Pretty much due to the country aligning with Socialist principles post independence.

Which the BJP have been working to erode in a race backwards to beat out Bangladesh and Pakistan as the most reactionary country on the subcontinent.

[–] jackmarxist@hexbear.net 14 points 10 months ago

Yes but India is still better than Pakistan at least. It's more akin to the Russian decline regarding social issues post Soviet collapse.

Heavily dependent on class, region, and ethnicity. Brahman women are better off. Muslim untouchables are still fucked.

[–] jackmarxist@hexbear.net 14 points 10 months ago

It's far more about Indian culture than laws. The laws drafted by Ambedkar were very Socialist in nature and guaranteed equality to all. Indian culture is very backwards and the BJP has taken the country back several decades since 2014 when it comes to social issues.

[–] Midnight1938@reddthat.com 1 points 10 months ago (2 children)

That can be said for any ruling party anywhere

[–] SovietWaveGoddess@hexbear.net 11 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Idk the CPC ruling China has made China the best its ever been

India still has trouble updating basic infrastructure because the BJP spends so much time complaining about pakistan and funneling cash to elites

[–] Midnight1938@reddthat.com 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

But china's a one party system, i dont see how its tbe same case?

[–] SovietWaveGoddess@hexbear.net 10 points 10 months ago

One party systems are not the same all across the board lol, if thats what you mean. What do you mean by this?

[–] Alaskaball@hexbear.net 7 points 10 months ago

lol stay mad into the new year

[–] jabrd@hexbear.net 4 points 10 months ago

But think of the productive forces
