    Just because socially progressive issues are co-opted and corrupted by the capitalists and used as a lure to distract from class issues does NOT mean these aren’t important issues.

    I get that attention to them is disproportionate and it is absolutely used as a tool by the capitalists to maintain power but don’t throw the baby out with the bathwater.

    I understand the pragmatism of not wanting to cause social unrest by pushing for social progressivism while trying to juggle pushing for socialism but one must also understand how the emancipation of workers from enslavement to capitalists must be complemented with emancipation of workers from other forms of irrational and injust oppression.

    You seem to have a very poor opinion of queers. You should try actually talking to some normal ones and not forming your opinion off of the most grotesque American liberal stereotypes. People of all sexualities and genders and races etc. should not be fighting each other or be treated as second class citizens. You can fight imperial Wokeism™ without becoming a bigot.

      You seem to be reading something into my writing that isn’t there.

      I’m just talking about how a different culture exists and looks at things differently. I don’t need to have an opinion on the matter to explain such a thing.
