    The best way to insulate yourself from infiltration by capitalism elements is not to create enemies by needless opposition. Even the fucking capitalists notes the best method to avoid kgb blackmail in the godamn 50's was to ditch homophobia. Our society being fundamentally anti human obviously made the dumbest decision possible.

      It's a self fulfilling cycle that you can see from the testimony of LGBT Chinese individuals in Western coverage.

      Because a lackluster societal tolerance climate preventing the domestic development of organic communities for LGBT rights due to the misinterpretations I've stated above, alienation drives LGBT peoples to the only real organized groups around, those formed by and subsisting on external backing through Western networked NGOs, as their only safe space. This relationship inevitably makes those individuals more amenable to the ideology behind those groups, ie. it turns them into Chinese liberal (or full blown Western imperialism apologists) types who come to oppose the government, socialist governance and their country on all grounds. None of this is necessary or inevitable and the understanding must be advocated that LGBT peoples in China need not be consequentially Chinese liberal capitalism restorationists if allowed to organize on their own terms.
