The liberals reading this with a what-the-hell expression feel exactly the same way as I do whenever I see lgbt people supporting capitalism.

You don't have to agree with Russia's domestic policies to be in favor of their victory on the geopolitical stage against NATO. Ain't nothing wrong with the image in the OP. Z

[-] SerLava@hexbear.net 47 points 1 year ago

Then just post a Z instead of putting it on a trans flag when they just made trans care illegal. Just as cringe, or possibly marginally more cringe, as making a trans American flag

This makes as much sense as the pride/Ukraine flags I've seen some internet idiots bandy 'round (zero).

Both sides in this war are queerphobic states and you aren't gonna be able to reconcile that with queer identity.

[-] Dirt_Owl@hexbear.net 32 points 1 year ago

russia-cool and ukkkraine are both transphobic hellholes, along with amerikkka

[-] Redcuban1959@hexbear.net 27 points 1 year ago

It's a real shame, I wonder what the Soviet Union would be like in relation to the LGBT community if it still existed today. AES countries like Vietnam and Cuba became friendly and supportive towards the lgbtq+ community after the 90s.

Idk seems like this is specifically in the context of the war because of the Z?

I mean so many trans people here also support Stalin, USSR, China, Laos, DPRK, Afghanistan, Iran, Iraq, Syria, Libya etc. in their wars

Only difference between Russia and the other capitalist anti-queer countries is that Russia is the only one not yet flattened into the ground so it feels weird for people influenced by a culture that associates weakness with moral purity, strength with evil, and the underdog being a hero to support Russia in the same way

[-] chickentendrils@hexbear.net 36 points 1 year ago

Charitably I'll assume the individual being dunked on has performed their own evaluation of "things" and determined that multi-polar imperialism is still better than US-dominated imperialism, because at least there's not an even more entrenched monopoly over the world.

It's not like a modern neoliberal market hellhole state like Russia is going to liberalize on marginalized communities any time soon. The economic gears only grind harder from here, with the hard stops created by climate change on the horizon, so it's unlikely at least.

We can't ignore history though. The context of modern Russia and other states is our world's history. The one where Western capitalists were unrelenting, reinvesting wealth stolen from revolutionary countries into their destruction. The one where "human rights concerns" were used only to justify sanctions against and invasions of countries already embattled for decades. It's one thing to pressure a nation on these issues, but it's a whole other thing to use people inside those societies to destabilize them and then weaponize capitalist owned press to browbeat those countries for "authoritarian" responses.

That's all of em, bud.

US legalized gay marriage tho*

*Don't look at what it's doing to trans people

[-] regul@hexbear.net 40 points 1 year ago

US legalized gay marriage for now

[-] AssortedBiscuits@hexbear.net 23 points 1 year ago

It's still cringe on an aesthetic level. If you're going to combine the trans flag and the Z, at least do what they do with the ribbon of St. George like this only with the trans colors instead.

It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

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 ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
