Nonbinary Marxist here — queerfeminist theory is not synonymous with ‘anything pro-LGBT’, but is a very specific outgrowth of idealist, liberal ideologies roughly related with postmarxist anti-Marxist ideas. Instead of analyzing the material, objective world, they proclaim a world of all equally as valid “experiences” that you are not allowed to question if you are not yourself part of the groups associated with them. They believe language policing and representation in media would solve the resentment of conservative people against LGBT people and women, instead of sexism and bigotry being a direct result of capitalist division tactics.
Queerfeminism is a liberal ideology that works with representation and appeasement politics and not on a revolutionary modus. Proletarian feminism is the way to go, and queer liberation can not come through ‘queerfeminism’ but instead through a workers’ revolution with the right programme.
… Korean pop culture is not queer friendly at all, and the gender roles are very very classic in K-pop.
It’s a really fun drinking game how fast you can trace these articles back to the US government and the CIA.
It took only two steps this time!
And the other sponsor is the National Democratic Institute, which was actively involved in funding fascist and anti-socialist coups in Venezuela, Chile, Nicaragua and more. Oh, and it’s also funded by the NED and the US government.
The TJWG’s executive director is also a member and close associate of the National Endowment for Democracy. (https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=4974ZxosXEc)
So literally all of their funding comes from the CIA/US government.
How’s the functionality compared to the three big competitors Mastodon, diaspora* and Friendica?
It’s insane being an actually real-life organized socialist with natural contacts to the communist opposition in China, and then looking in the online world to see teenagers stanning the PRC because it has a red flag.
We have Wolfballs here on Lemmy too so we can’t exactly complain
Not all (e.g. personal conversations)
Props go out to Parabola (CLI edition) for being the first system running on my 64MB 2003 laptop.
Funny you post this now, because I actually installed Trisquel on my laptop a few days ago. :) And I swear it’s not an ideological claim but it’s genuinely the best, snappiest and most user friendly distribution I have ever used.
Especially the type of people who then praise the Fediverse as some kind of privacy alternative as if their data isn’t hosted by some kid below their parents’ kitchen sink.
Okay, fair enough, I can see that, but it’s pretty obvious the large majority of this thread and ‘anti-car’ people in general just don’t think that far and instead just project hate on perceived “selfish” car drivers.
Or they could just redirect to already widely used services like Patreon, ko-fi, Monero, or a PayPal address. Doesn’t have to be more complicated than other apps. :)
… Are you aware that in 2021 you still need… factories… and land… to produce things? You know,… the means to do that that only a select few can own?
How do you even come to the conclusion that the means of production of all things are no longer existant? Since when have we stopped relying on workshops, factories and agriculture?
Why not blame the capitalist industrialists that cut corners there, then, and not regular ass proletarians with cars?
The idea of blaming consumers for entirely industry made issues, of antagonizing working class people based on the commodities they own and making them out to be the real enemies in various capitalist-made issues like the climate catastrophe and lack of road safety.
This is all a tired psyop to shift blame for climate change on random proletarian car owners, instead of the circumstances making these cars necessary or attractive or viable or producable. Good ol’ infighting, divide and conquer.
Thing is just that “Latinx” is usually a moniker created by people on the spectrum of liberal identity politics — people who essentially think that critiquing and controlling language will fix racism and other ills by ‘changing the way people think about experiences and identities’, which is of course something Marxists identify as counterproductive as language is not the driving force behind social dynamics.
There’s nothing wrong with the word per sé except that it can even seem a bit patronizing towards actual Latine people, but not much. It just usually symbolizes a certain adherence to made up respectability language that is meant to fix racism with words instead of actions. It’s not like Latino/Latina or the better gender neutral Latine were in any way offensive anyway.
A workers’ revolution will not succeed in liberating the working class and building a classless society anyway if it can’t even identify and fight capitalist division strategies in their own lines. Any communist party that’s successful necessarily unites the entire proletariat, and if they don’t, they’re not successful (for long). Of course a communist party needs to analyse everything correctly, and that includes things like queer issues, but that applies to all topics including others like national liberation or the women’s question. You don’t need a specific queerfeminist communist party as opposed to a normal communist party in order to solve LGBTQ issues. A good communist party has a correct program.
Queerfeminism itself is a very specific ideology that is decidedly liberal and idealistic. It’s like Marxism a certain school of thought, not a general set of values. Queer liberation plus feminism does not equal queerfeminism. It’s a term that means a specific ideology spearheaded among others by Judith Butler.
