I personally love when tankie-grads larp LGBT symbols, as if they actually supported trans and gay rights. Everyone sees through this shit right?
It reminds me of the Onion video titled “First female dictator hailed as step forward for women.”
This lady becomes a dictator and then goes though and kills her political enemies along with some random civilians.
The really early USSR was socially progressive, including legal tolerance of homosexuality. Stalin absolutely shut that down.
I also love seeing identity/symbols co-opted by authoritarians.
The famous authoritarian Israel… Yeah…
They currently have a right government but its a liberal right not a authoritarian right as in USA.

Yes, the state where interfaith marriages aren’t allowed and that regularly domes journalists for the crime of being journalists.
Here at NCD we only approve of states that are equal-opportunity killers.

Fucking what.
Indeed. The Israeli right is theocratic, semi-openly genocidal and headed by a guy with corruption cases waiting for him as soon as he’s not Prime Minister anymore (which he’s solving with forever war). Liberal right my ass.
I dunno, they seem to be thriving in certain Lemmy communities.
Bots, sock accounts, useful idiots, and those easily influenced by perceived public opinion. I ban vote manipulators from here constantly and we’re not even that large of a community. There’s no way they aren’t doing the same elsewhere.
Edit:
As I typed this, a 2day old account reported this post for “Racism”
Can we just stop the fighting and have a beach party?
That was a big-ass missile.
“fragment”
Don’t worry, Israel has already been blamed for it.
