Being part of a minority group kinda opens your eyes towards discrimination in other places. It can act as an empathy booster and reveal lack of empathy in certain political decisions & movements.

Being trans is not an empathy booster. You fucks just want free stuff without having to work for it, nothing empathetic about it.

You fucks just want free stuff without having to work for it,

The right word here is narcissism, which is not a surprise considering that TRA shit is all about personal identity and pushing said personal identity on others.

That's right. Free stuff. This is a serious problem in my country, where you can get €200 simply for not going to work.

I know we don't have any strict content rules at the moment, but this doesn't seem appropriate for our sub.

Are we here for LGB or are we here to smack-talk trans?

You're right, of course, but sometimes it's just so tempting.

I get it, lol. There are just plenty of places we can talk-smack about trans without dragging it in here too, you know?

s/Transbarrassment
s/ThereAreTwoGenders
s/TumblrInAction
s/SocialJusticeInAction

There's also s/RightWingLGBT. It's pretty dead, but wouldn't hurt to get it more active with posts every now and again calling out issues with the left.

Agreed. LGB first!

Fundamentally I think it's because in the West, both transgenderism and support for communism (whatever that means to the individual) are luxury beliefs. There is unlikely to ever be a communist revolution in the stable, democratic Western nations (though watch me jinx it now) so these peoples' beliefs will never be put to the test and they will never have to live under a communist regime.

I doubt very much whether the babushka freezing in the bread line in the harsh Soviet winter ever had the opportunity to contemplate what her pronouns were. I doubt the peasants starving to death in Chinese fields were worried about their neighbours noticing their 'queer' haircut, they were probably more worried about being denounced and persecuted.

I despise modern day communists because they're just so fucking clueless. They think that they will be the ones leading the glorious rainbow revolution of peace and love, yet if they had lived in any communist regime in history they would have been lined up and shot for their bourgeois beliefs. The working classes, the actual doing-the-work working classes, the people in whose name communist revolutions are carried out, absolutely, 100% do not have time for the pronoun games and gender feels. They are the sort of people these blue-haired soyboys denounce on Twitter for 'misgendering' and 'violence.'

These idiotic beliefs are only able to exist thanks to capitalism.

Actually, they would be lined up against the wall and shot for bringing about said communist regime in the first place. There’s a reason the useless idiots are all rounded up and disposed of after the revolution: they’ve already proven that they’re willing and capable to overthrow governments.

This is the problem with neoliberalism. Neoliberalism is a form of capitalism that merges corporations and governments at the expense of the working class, and makes communism desirable to people who struggle under neoliberalism and people who don't work for anything while they benefit from neoliberalism.

Communists will inevitably become disappointed with the working class. There is still an aristocracy under communism.

I actually liked a lot of what EditRedditGeddit had to say.

They want you to share your children with them.

They want the state to own your children. That way you cannot protect your children from them.

Because the current TQ movement has it's roots in Marxism?

"THEY ALL WANT TO KILL ME!" "No, some of them don't care" "IT'S WORSE THAT THEY DON'T CARE"

No rules, can't win, don't play. Gotcha.

Communist countries don't play with that shit. Try being a woke TQ nut in China. You'd end up facing the wall. These children don't have a clue.
