Sounds like the 'LGB Alliance' brand of white supremacy. Many "allies" have no idea whether to listen to them or someone who is intersectional and actually in the community. Depressing
Anyone who isn’t unconditionally anti-NATO and anti-American hegemony is a white supremacist. No exceptions.
A statement that needs to be plastered EVERYWHERE in left spaces. This is our project for this decade, this generation - but god damn is it exhausting.
For whatever reason at the time, you weren't ready to push that hard yet. Trans people face an insane amount of hatred, demonization, and mischaracterization - even if internally a part of you "knew", there's only so much guilt you can lay on yourself for not throwing yourself to the wolves simply to stand with a group you didn't even feel a belonging/understanding with yet. There's a lot of trade offs either way between repressing through childhood and transitioning as a relatively "safe" adult, or rolling the dice and trying the force your way through childhood in patriarchal white supremacy culture. Trauma comes either way unfortunately, and the important part is both paths united in the end.

Heyyy so I cracked a little over a year ago, and had some bad reactions from my then SO and much of the rest of my family. Just a few words - go easy on yourself, there's no rush to anything; have grace for yourself, this is all incredibly difficult and you'll find many people in your life that won't understand, especially in the early stages (if you end up finding yourself to be trans, not being trans afterall is ok too lol).
Its really hard to narrow down what advice I feel would be best, its only been a year but I've passed some sizeable milestones now that Im proud of in spite of what I had to battle through, and more to come (always), but its all so incredibly worth it.
Please reach out via DM's or below if you want to talk experience or have any questions, or really just anything. All of this stuff is incredibly difficult and jarring when it first hits, but I hope youre finding meaning and enjoyment in it, the vividness of life in that first few months is something I'll remember forever lol
EDIT - Also, I did the same damn thing with Faceapp, whatever you do, don't use it as a profile pic anywhere, or else the first 5 months of transition you'll be even harder on yourself about appearance. But idk, thats a personal lesson I learned the hard way lol
Buddy is like 5 years behind in terms of popular communist media and platforms. Yawn. Wake me up when he starts calling out creators on communist TikTok 🥱
Peterson is right; we're being INSTRUCTED not to notice this, and I only take INSTRUCTION from the oppressed Kermit himself.
"Noooooooooo this is different from the Iraq war!!! There's legitimate baddies this time!!! We're not them!!! Putler must go!"
Lets look at one of the actual top comments by Imperial-General: "Very clear that a lot of people who claim to have been "anti-imperialist" in opposing the Iraq War really were just un-American and have spent the last decades pining for a righteous foreign hegemony under a Good Non-Western Country."
Honestly can't believe I just read that lmao. The brainworms on these people...
Viewers beware, that thread is absolutely CURSED. Be suspicious of Vaush fans!
Chinese citizens are so poor they have to use hydrogen balloons to pick pine nuts themselves instead of going to Costco, grabbing a 50 lb bag and 12 gallons of Ranch and Cherry Coke, and puttering my way back to my suburban hellscape home.
China bad
/uj China sounds better every day
Tag yourself, I'm the blonde woman passing out pamphlets under a "DOWN WITH THE IMPERIALISTS" sign 😎
I think this past year or two has been one where all of the flavors of liberal are finally diverging from the left 'socialist' pipelines and showing themselves for what they always were. Depressingly, the circles remaining seem much smaller, but then again I'm sure anyone that went through the early 2000s would say we are much better positioned culturally than then. Pretty clear as soon as Biden got into office that the overarching policy guidelines would be that of silence and immediate quelling of any popular energy.
Gonna be interesting to see how long it takes for another wave our direction. The liberals are making fools of themselves in broad daylight increasingly every day that passes since COVID began, but the bill has not yet come due. Its been building and we've all been feeling it, only a matter of time.
Its funny the longer you're exposed to the reality of what happened during the 20th century, you realize the degree to which most cultures around the world simply could not understand the degree of cold, calculated, sociopathic supremacy the US would fall in line with, time after time. The US, and really the west in general, is and has been under a spell of supremacy culture based violence that's shaped the world for thousands of years. The US was the end result of all of this, "manifest destiny" and the great purge and ransack of the entire newly "discovered" continent was a shock of a scale humanity had not yet seen, and has not seen since. Hitler could only dream of emulating the project of north america. All the western "opponents" of the past hundred years have all made the fatal mistake of overestimating our humanity. The western project is not one of humanism, and never was.
Probably totally tangent from your point, but 🤷♀️
I like this take - I think Russia is in uncharted waters historically, it could go a number of different directions. Does a long history of socialist/communist education within a larger national/cultural identity withstand decades of post-fall ad-hoc capitalist stop-gap measures? Will another collapse lead the way Marxists would hope or would we see another autocracy?
I think its impossible for any western analysts to speculate with any degree of certainty, always need to remember our place in national/cultural self determination.
I mean Gorby is pretty universally disliked in Russia these days, its a fairly easy political boost at minimum, but also Putin certainly despises Gorby for dismantling the power of the former USSR and handing it over to the US to be sold off to the highest bidder.
I doubt Putin is in any way marxist in the way that we define things, but frankly I dont know enough background and cultural relevancy to have a solid opinion on Putin lol
There’s definitely a split among demsocs and the soft-left with the actual communists over Ukraine. The Trots are split on it too. Even the fucking Maoists are debating Taiwan. Just about the only group that isn’t split at all right now are MLs.
ML's on the correct side of history again, might I say 😎
Honestly I might have just assumed since all the lib/reactionary Pink Floyd fans latch onto David as a way to avoid Roger and his more obvious politics. It would be so nice to know the whole band is at the very least Corbyn and left of that.
Id agree, huge fan of them, but I'm pretty sure Gilmour is a reactionary but still. Huge statement from Roger, immediately made me like him quite a bit more. I always knew he was the most radical member, but I had suspected it would stop prior to defending existing socialist projects. Happy surprise 😎
Let the plant live their life geeeeeeeeeez
