:galaxy-brain: beyond my comprehension
God I'm so sick of being smeared as transphobic just because I hate trans people and think they're all liars!
Intentionally smearing shit all over myself and going on an unhinged bigoted rant because I'm sick of being called a stinky dumb bigot, this is my strategy for getting people to focus on other issues instead of the issue of me being a stinky dumb bigot.
just gotta casually throw trans people under the bus while making an antiwar statement.... for reasons?
Fascists from non dominant groups are still fascists even if their main enemies are fascists.
Any rally that platforms Jimmy Dore and Jackson Hinkle as speakers should not be taken seriously. Just another clown associated with that.
And a good dose of identity politics to defend herself from liberals...
Anyone with a brain can see this is wholly disingenuous. I guess that does rule out the liberals though, they’ll just keep calling her a Russian bot
This is a great example of the difference between a set of values and a set of opinions.
Anya's anti-imperialism was always a set of opinions.
A revolutionary ideology is not merely negative. It is not a mere conceptual refutation of a dying social order, but a positive creative theory, the guiding light of the emerging social order. - Kwame Nkrumah
Libertarians thinking their Randian utopia could ever exist without the extractive imperialist policies of the US are always funny to me.
Lol. Every bouldering wall I've ever been to has unisex locker rooms. Why aren't we banned?

The labels of “left” and “right” are outdated in the US. Case in point: leftist white men now pander to other white men by telling women of color they’re bigoted for saying boys shouldn’t be able to piss in the girls’ room. These same punks spent months advocating against bodily autonomy on behalf of big pharma.
Gender ideology has created a dynamic in which a bunch of men can come into organizing circles, play victim, & assert control over what it is acceptable for others, especially women, to say & think. Most people know it’s just misogyny tied up in a frilly bow but are too afraid to say it.
Now that participants in the oppression Olympics have spent weeks attacking an anti-war rally because it didn’t fit their (tunnel) vision for the movement, gloves are off. Good luck winning over “the people” with your message.
The same people who believed workers should be mandated to take an experimental injection that did not "stop the spread" cried "my body, my choice" when Roe was overturned. Yet they're the same people who do not even believe biological women exist. Total incoherence!
oh dear lord. what an absolute monster.
This is why I am wary around people who are 'just' anti imperialists. Like don't get me wrong anti imperialism is critical, but if its not attached to a deeper goal and or program it ends up being just "usa bad" which, yes, but that often gets paired with "not usa good!" Which is 100% not necessarily the case.
Reminding people if there are 9 people at a table and a Nazi sits down without being kicked out, there are 10 nazis at the table.
dropping a tactical T slur to show my interlocutors i'm not afraid of them
the pandering is so fucking transparent. is this really what people want out of their useless talking heads?
war is bad for marginalized groups but have you considered that its sus as fuck to throw a comment out about trans people out while making an antiwar statement?
Get fucked. Why should I believe anything she says on the anti war front if she can't manage to not actively be a bigot toward me?
At the risk of seeming ridiculous, let me say that the true revolutionary is guided by a great feeling of love. It is impossible to think of a genuine revolutionary lacking this quality.
Read a god damn fucking book. How do you sincerely intend to build an Antiwar Movement, an Anti Imperialist movement with current active members of the military and people whose anti War politics is entirely based on WE CAN SPEND MONEY MORE EFFICIENtly instead of basing their politics on love, the inherit self worth of people to that conclusion, the fulfillment of safe and happy lives for transpeople.
edit: and this is happening in the USA, where there is broad acceptance of LGBTQIA much pushed by the Democratic Party with many broken promises. A revolutionary line on LGBTQIA is not to reject that acceptance, but to push the fulfillment of those promises either with or without the current structures. And as Socalists, we know that is without the current structures in place.
