  • None if the queer people I knew there felt they had a future unless they left. They didnt think they were gonna get their doors kicked down, just thar they could either participate in society or be openly queer.

    Sorry about the laziness and bad faith. You seemkind of zealoty in defending absolutely deeply flawed stuff, and give off disingenuous vibes. Makes it difficult to care enough to make the effort. Mutual non engagement or block, race you to the end of capitalism, winner gets bragging rights?


  • steadily improving

    Seems about the same on queer rights.

    And you dont have to be gradual about this. See again: fucking Cuba.

    I don’t think it’s a terror regime², I think it’s a banal authoritarian shit hole with plenty of bread and circuses. It’s not bad, but its not paradise, and I wouldn’t even say it’s good. I’m not fucking blaming Marxism. I’m pointing out that Marxism is clearly not the problem here, whether I agree with it or not.

    I’m not certain you can read.

    ²i live in one of those!





  • I actually did talk to a lot of Chinese queers back when that was easier¹. It was a pretty grim picture.

    The ones ive talked yo recently don’t live there-because it’s not a great place to be queer, and since the place I live got a lot more fuckef up, they don’t live here either, so I can’t ask them.

    ¹because of the censorship

    Cuba is not ‘new deal with Chinese characteristics’ though.

    You’re comparing things to the us empire. As if that makes it good. My apartment is cleaner than the inside of a septic tank, so I’m a good housekeeper.

    Cuba proves its not a tankie problem. Its a ‘these fuckers in charge’ problem. Or maybe you’re right, and all Chinese people are just bigots who like being censored and copped at, which seems fucking weird and implausible but idk you’re the expert.
