I know the reality is Russia is unfriendly towards the lgbt but it’s important we lie to ourselves and pretend that it’s not for the sake of left unity. Being able to hold two contradictory beliefs is half of what being a leftist is.

Nah nah, a better way to put it is “”“Holding both the contradictory beliefs and screaming endlessly in a time loop forever about how you’re going to make them face the fucking wall for their crimes but also in this one instance of a completely different situation that is unrelated in almost every fuckin way they aren’t automagically the enemy (any more than usual for being capitalist fascist pieces of shit just like yesterday when we weren’t currently at ‘active’ war) because our even worse capitalist institutions say so while the entire world gaslights you into pretending a country that was shooting LGBT people in the street for being “removed” or whatever during their most recent coup/revolution/fascist takeover is actually the “Pro-LGBT war ‘team’ that you need to support by sending direct military aid today by calling the number on your screen now, that’s 1800-RATHEOMARTIN” (despite all the articles and videos of their 2014-2020ish journalism literally being living proof against their current talking point and even popping up in the related articles for modern puff pieces about the new heroes-in-swastikas until you’re convinced you’re living in a simulation where you just loop the previous wars arguments over and over and over again every day forever.”“” is what half of being a leftist actually is.
