Very different when put in context, or at least I hope
It does sound a little like a Nick Mullen moment but that’s definitely not what he meant lol. I’m not Venezuelan, but I’m a Spanish speaker from latam and I’ve almost never heard anyone use “homo” to mean gay by itself. He was just using it in the taxonomical sense. Not to mention that Maduro is pretty pro-LGBTQ and has wanted to push a more inclusive line in Venezuela but has, if anything, been held back by the rest of the party.
Ah, phew! Good to hear!
A bit this I think Homo Sovieticus?
Homo Sovieticus (cod Latin for ‘Soviet Man’) is a pejorative term coined to describe the average conformist individual in the Soviet Union and other Eastern Bloc countries.
I can hear Brace Belden’s voice saying this
Rachel Jake vs. The Homo Nazi would be a pretty cool gumshoe novel.
Linguists have had a big breakthrough in modern maoist-standard english
homo SSapien
Almost no one uses homo as a slur in spanish or portuguese, in this case Homo literally just comes from Homo Sapiens. Some people (Gusanos who mostly are racist and LGBTQphobic themselfs) claim that Maduro called Milei a homophobic slur recently, but he just called Milei a Pendejo, Asqueroso, Neonazi and Sociopath.
How are people trying to cancel him here for saying this? This is funny
There was a long and huge campaign promoted by George Bush and Obama against Venezuela and Chávez using LGBTQ+ groups and NGOs. I don’t believe Chávez was homophobic, but he simply didn’t do much to help or improve the situation of LGBTQ+ people, and the abuses of the police and some of the more reactionary and conservative Chavista politicians continued with homophobic policies.
Then, when Maduro was elected, things changed for the better. Maduro, personally, is pro-LGBTQ+ and started pushing for more LGBTQ+ policies within the PSUV. A few days before Guaido’s attempted legislative coup, Maduro met with LGBTQ+ groups and promised to promote same-sex marriage, adoption and the protection of LGBTQ+ people. But then Guaido fucked up and the attempt to reform the constitution was suspended due to the political instability at the time. And as soon as Maduro accepted LGBTQ+ people into government, the US stopped sending funding to NGOs.
Apparently, some bad-faithers are miscontruing as an antisemitic insult, due to Milei self-describling himself of allegedly being of Jewish descent…
How “Homo Nazi” doesn’t refer to his economic, foreign and cultural policy, let alone image, IDK…
cant even call a pro-genocide crakkker a hitlerite anymore because of woke
title is a little clickbaityI literally didnt even realize that when I wrote it plus like, the actual information is right there in the screenshot so the fact that people took it as as Maduro calling him gay came as a complete shock to me because I only thought of the scientific term.
anglocentrism? on my hexbear?
it’s no prob once i clicked on the post i instantly knew it wasn’t that, the title just instantly blipped my slur radar bc i’ve heard it too many times lmao
Considering Maduro is buddy with Jackson Hinkle, and that Hinkle is famous for his ‘gay Nazi’ theory…
it sounds crazy, but who am I to argue with the science?
An immortal science, no less
Maduro go on Cum Town
Maduro bringing the fire.
lol
:homo-nazi: when
New inventions in the world of Chavism-Mullenism
What if Maduro were Chinese
