The link at the start is this post.

Since this is long, I will summarise the key points:

  1. The mod team argues that being gay or trans is not biologically based, they argue it is caused by environmental factors caused by capitalism and bourgeoise ideology.

  2. The mod team argues being LGBT is a choice.

  3. The mod team argues that LGBT people should be thrown under a bus because they're just 6% of the population who get in the way of popular support with the remaining 94% of the population.

  4. The mod team argues LGBT identities only gain support in socialist countries when socialism in those countries is declining and collapsing due to bourgeoise ideology.

These seem to be the key things this modteam believes about LGBT people. I haven't misrepresented or exaggerated any of this. I do not have to.

    This is actually not that unusual for old European ML tendencies, the communist party in Sweden which formerly had soviet connections infamously had one of their party leaders state in like the 70s-80s "Real workers dont fuck each other in the ass" and recently had a split in one of our major cities cause half the section didnt think they were being bigoted enough towards "LGBTQ Ideology" and immigrants.

      On the other hand the DDR had state owned gay bars. I think its mostly the deeply religious illeterate peasant background of much of the eastern block pre socialism that wasnt managed to be overcome and shaped cultural approach from the party ,tickling down to the ones that it influenced. Similarly to how machismo culture had to be overcome in Cuba socialy for women and lgbt liberation, which they did manage to root out and overcome eventualy

        Fidel fuckin Castro literally came out and denounced the shit he did when he was younger as social conservative chauvinism and a stain upon the Cuban revolution.

        If Comrade Fidel, the literal peak of Latino machismoism, can understand the wrongness of his stance through self-crit and reflection and come out publically denouncing himself to the world and publically support the LGBT+ cause in the same breath, then these fucking red chuds can and should eat my tank tread.
