    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

      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
