    Do you think Ukraine and/or furries belong on the pride flag or that they are attempting to hijack the achievements of gay rights activists? Bondage fetishists do this too

      Ukraine def doesn't.

      I'm not LGBTQ myself so I'd rather not opine on whether their community thinks furries and bdsm folk should be included in their community at all but I'd say most queer people I know wouldn't give a fuck if and when they show up at a pride parade.

            I welcome it, since I love sucking cock and I already have been banned from numerous places for announcing that Pride is like Zionism but with being gay instead of Jewish at this point, and that will completely alienate people. Hell, add "sex workers" to the flag, they already started to use the term for trafficked children being raped, in various UN organizations. "MAGA communists" have never read Alexandra Kollontai, they instead call strippers petit boug lol. Like they own the pole in the club! Dumb motherfuckers!

            Fact is anybody who sides with NATO over Russia is also siding with the ability of western financiers to fund anti-gay pogroms in Burundi. It isn't about hypocrisy. Weaponizing social conservatism is an important part of keeping the undeveloped countries within the price range of the imperialists.

            I don't give a fuck about Pride since it's a cargo cult built around the actual accomplishments of activists, and serves to turn gay people (etcetera lol) into standard bearers for the democrats. You don't give a fuck about pride because you're heterosexual. We are not the same. :gus_fring:

              Oh so this is like a Pride Denied thing, okay! Phew, for a second I thought this was something really fucking weird.

              Not that the antifurry, antikink shit isn't really fucking weird

                do you think furries or BDSM enjoyers are 1.) minority groups in need of a caucus in a communist party 2.) in need of a pride flag stripe

                because if not we probably both have a shared apprecation for them on the same level

                they're no Uyghurs

                    i literally have a lot of friends who are into kink or furry shit IRL i would just immediately smack them if they started talking to me about being a political minority that's all. i'm just pretty particular and i get why sometimes explaining this wrong gets a sussy eyebrow

                  furries or BDSM enjoyers are 1.) minority groups in need of a caucus in a communist party

                  Yes a thing many people have actually advocated for.

                    if you're not fucking with me, i'm not joking when i say that is less coherent than what the khmer rouge believed about class being determined by one's ideals

                      I don't think kinky people are a sexual minority group the same way gay or lesbian people are.

                      However it is stigmatized in our puritanical society to the point it can result in hateful behavior. For example there have been cases of couples into bdsm with kids having CPS called on them. So I get why some people see it as adjacent to LGBT struggles since both have a common social conservative antagonist.

                        I mean yeah I think we are in agreement that people think everything right wingers hate is the best thing ever and needs to be the center of their political program

                        However I regret to inform you the right also loves bondage (slavery themed relationships). Not furries though afaik

                            oh so by telling people who enjoy slavery themed relationships that they can't be on the pride flag because they put it on their facebook profile (instead of treating it like good honest fun) and that sexuality and race is different from sexual proclivities, i am "policing them". see my issue with furries and bdsm people now? they verge on homophobia

                                no I just wanted to be clear I am not policing anyone's relationships I just think I have a lot of work to do myself when it comes to explaining why gay people need a level of representation in politics along with racial minorities and women rather than just listing off my annoyances with people disregarding it because they see a new outlet for their whole lifestyle

                                being gay is not a lifestyle, it's a sexuality

                                i could back this up by listing off all the people i know who view bdsm as a safe environment to express their most abusive, sexist, and classist tendencies, but i'll stick to saying "i am familiar with the community" and i like to blindfold people 😄 it's not about demonizing anyone i see as a pervert

                                i'd give way more shit to the maga communists you mentioned and btw they are paranoid about banning SPECIFICALLY me lolol
