Bad ideology when person whose aesthetic I don’t like happily reads to kids. Good ideology when person whose aesthetic I do like waves to crowd. I am strongman, hear me roar, pound chest. Me like chest pound aesthetic, make brain feel good. Me tough guy, tougher than those weirdos who use bright colors in things. Me only like sepia tone or grayscale, must look aged and old like socrates. New things bad, old good, but only if old comes from right color scheme and quote vibes. This how product work, color and packing I like taste better, so must be same with ideology, right?
I don’t know how I got here as satire, exactly, but I am tired…
I wish these people would listen to Michael Parenti about the lgbt community. His speech, even with the F slur, really resonated. I think all homophobic communists should listen to it.
I FOUND IT! It’s on Twitter, and I don’t know which lecture it comes from but here it is!

For some reason I’m having a hard time finding it, but it was about how he used to be super homophobic but then he saw the stonewall riots and that changed his view, gay people were now revolutionary to him. I will link it once I am able to track it down, maybe someone else can do so as well.
What the fuck did I just read? Patsocs are so strange
it’s so pathetic how transparent the MAGAcommunism thing is lol
Seeing CIA behind every account with bad takes is probably giving them too much credit. Oftentimes we assume that someone cannot genuinely hold two contradictory beliefs at the same time because it seems so obvious to us that they don’t fit together. In this case there is a clear contradiction between on the one hand believing in communism, which is an ideology of liberation for all, and on the other hand rejecting LGBT+ liberation. For us it is plain to see that these two are incongruous, but not all people who grow up in a culture with such deeply embedded prejudices have managed to reckon with and discard those prejudices. Unfortunately it happens more often than we would like to believe that people simultaneously hold both progressive and reactionary views. I’m not saying there aren’t a lot of opportunists out there who are just acting cynically in order to build some kind of following, and very likely also a few intelligence agency plants, but reactionary communists do exist.
Who will tell him that lenin, founder of USSR, also legalized homosexuality ?
