i kinda find it really fucking gross how tankies will act like they're such huge allies to lgbtq people ackshully. because as we all know dictatorial so-called communist states were and are so tolerant of queer people protesting their rights

#political crap #not to sound like I'm implying liberalism isn't a flawed ideology here #but social liberals have led the charge for gay rights throughout history communists have only ever done it when it's fashionable #up until like the 80s the french communists called it 'a distraction from the overthrow of the capitalist system' or some bollocks #and what the maoists said about homosexuality was even worse #on a related note considering hungary czechoslovakia and afghanistan i don't think tankie ideology can ever be called anticolonial #they were just as keen on colonising as the western powers when it suited them
