the only tears I see are nazi tears :stalin-joking:
there’s someone JAQing off about Chinese authoritarianism and an ex-poster from here going off about (I think?) the USSR. :soviet-hmm:
I meant the user who posted the “I’ve been unbanned” bit. idk who mrzbry is.
they’re in that thread going ooooffffff about how they’re oppressed by the admins, lmao
that deals with the people getting misgendered part but 👀 the transphobia in this thread. that’s a whole other thing we also have to deal with.
the difference between this thread and the one where we announced the pronoun tags in the first place is staggering. look at the votes on this thread: 25% of people are mad about pronouns. really feeling that solidarity.
DSA is hot shit in most of the country, especially in the big cities. the politics runs liberal but even more than that, the org is captured by the worst sort of people, more obsessed with their personal power in the org than with what they might accomplish. I spent about two years trying to make the org less useless but the last convention convinced me it wasn’t a worthwhile use of time. but that and my time in a chapter’s leadership means I have a lot of stories about the org. AMA, I guess.
I think my favorite part is that tankies get lumped in as anarcho-socialists, like they just fucking learned what the word communist meant but got confused.
now imagine that the whole society is like at least this stupid and genuinely believe stuff even worse than this about you and it has real fucking consequences for your life… and yeah… being trans is a lot of really dumb, pointless shit that only exists to make your life harder.

/sigh I’m grumpy
