        There is nothing inharently anti-lgbtq about communism. There is with fascism. Fascism relies on a cultural mythology to appeals to some form of purity, which usually won’t include LGBTQ+ people because that’s relatively recently accepted.

        Communism doesn’t have any of that. It may include it on a case-by-case basis, but so do capitalist nations and democracies. Just look at the US for that.

        I’m tired of the very basic “communism bad” takes. I thought we were done with that. You can build an argument against it if you want to. It’s not hard. Just saying it’s a boogeyman who causes all the problems isn’t one though

            Pretty much every communist group has been undermined by the US. Cuba has done pretty well for itself despite not being able to trade almost at all, for example. There has never been a communist nation that has been free to experiment without US intervention. Of course they all fail. (I wonder why the US is so scared of it succeeding if “it’s always doomed to fail?”)

              every communist group has been undermined by the US.

              And honestly, thank God for that. US and especially CIA have saved perhaps even millions of lives doing that.

              Cuba has done pretty well for itself despite not being able to trade almost at all, for example.

              Gotta hand it out to Cubans, credit where credit is due. Also Cubans have only genocided a little, though it is an interesting thought experiment to have if Cuba was situated in-land with considerable minorities.

              But then we have countries like N.Korea which actively trade with the world thru china yet are shitholes. Or china itself, which was a such a shithole it legitimately had to abandon every part of the economic-portion of communism (but still of course kept the totalitarianism and genocide intrinsic to communism) to make itself stay afloat.

                https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1954_Guatemalan_coup_d'état

                The CIA destroyed a democracy that was empowering the people partially out of fear of communism and partially because the United Fruit Company (now Chiquita, aka basically the only company that sells all of the bananas) wouldn’t have been able to exploit the labor as effectively.

                This is only one example of what looks like a very beneficial communist country coming into power and, having almost no ethical issues, being destroyed by the US. This is not a country people point to about communism being evil, obviously. The issue is the only ones that can survive the US intervention need to be much stronger. This almost requires a central dictatorship, and possibly cultural hegemony. I’m not saying these are good things. I’m saying survivorship bias has made you think it’s the way things need to be, which isn’t true but is useful for capitalists to tell you.

                Edit to add: The dictatorship that followed (which the US didn’t oppose because it supported their economic interests) committed a genocide of the Mayan people.

        I swear people think super villains are cartoonishly evil people. No. They’re just supremely self-righteous people. And theres no quicker road to being a self righteous cunt than to believe you are gods chosen.

          I think it’s a big difference if civilians die as part of collateral damage or if they are actively targeted and kidnapped in terrorist attacks, like the Hamas does it. Also don’t forget that the Hamas is happily accepting civilians casualties as part of their strategy, because it’s gets radicalized people into their ranks and also paints a much more sinister image of Israel.

              Well soldiers and armies are supposed to follow the rules set forth by the Geneva Conventions or they could be held liable under international court. And by definition both sides are responsible for war crimes, but you are right no one’s going to hold them responsible.

                  Long enough to see that there are no saints in this conflict, neither Israel nor Palestine and no one is much better or worse than the other. But what I know is that groups like Hamas are the real evil in this conflict, they are plain terrorists…

                They said they because Israel never is punished.

                They bomb infrastructure basically weekly and you aught to look into that time they took like 15 minutes to run over an American citizen with a bulldozer inch by inch as a crowd screams and begs for them to stop.

          According to the United Nations, roughly 6,400 Palestinians and 300 Israelis had been killed in the ongoing conflict since 2008, not counting the recent fatalities.

    It’s one thing to support Palestine’s right to exist. It’s another thing to justify and celebrate war crimes committed by a rebel occupation of a part of it that invite even more suffering of that country’s impoverished, defenseless civilians at the hands of an enemy that has historically had zero qualms about routinely making their lives a living hell over far less.

        Whelp, that’s telling. I get sympathizing with the Palestinian people, but not condoning Hamas actions.

        Edit: I would heavily recommend anyone who hasn’t to google Israeli crimes in Gaza before pushing this overarching conflict as black and white. Just to clarify, I do not support Hamas and their actions, I just want to raise awareness of the Palestinian people’s current situation.
