      Yeah... it's still capitalism with Chinese characteristics - no matter how much you masturbate to pictures of Xi Jinping.

        It's only a matter of time before liberals bring out the weird homophobic insults.

          Why do they do that? It's so weirdly consistent. "Fact supported by evidence" "oh yeah, well... uh... uhn... you're gay!" Like okay, so? I can't speak for othe instances in the Fediverse but Hexbear is one of the queerest places on the internet, and the lib is still wrong.

            I have to imagine they've somehow convinced themselves that if they call us all gay enough, that we'll burst into rainbow coloured flames like vampires exposed to sunlight.

              That would be pretty cool usually you need to burn a huge chunk of radioactive graphite for that.

            Well the short answer is Patriarchy. Accusing people of behaving in a way contrary to traditional ideas of masculinity is a classic technique for shaming people with heterodox views.

              Yeah, yeah, good point. It's honestly shocking, I spend so much time in Hexbear I forget how common and casual misogyny and queerphobia are out in the ret of the world.

            “Fact supported by evidence”

            Oh, a tankie with facts, eh? Come on... do that little psychotic tankie thing where you paste a wall of text to try and pretend that China isn't capitalist.

            I know you want to.

              Admitting that your worldview requires you to actively never read anything is a hell of a flex

                Admitting that your worldview is based on nothing but the fevered gibberish written by bourgeoisie-wannabes is no flex at all.
