Not surprising that people would choose to dismantle a state capitalist dystopia they’re living under, even if they have to sacrifice their most marginalized in the process. This is why we don’t do police states, even if they’re trans-friendly. Also IMHO this is in violation of Rule 2, as this has nothing to do with socialism. Pro-LGBT laws are not more likely under state capitalism, and this is just thinly veiled propaganda.
West Germany: famously not a police state. /s
also, no, no one gets to sacrifice us upon the altar of political purity, letalone in exchange for neoliberal capitalism. the fuckEDIT: this clarification what i needed. i was already primed to read this as transphobic by an interaction i had with a transphobe today and took it out on you, sorry. i still think your point could have been better worded.
West germany was a police state until the 68er kicked off. It still was one, the 68er --> RAF conversion rate was just too low to change it.
Notably, the CDU/CSU were fashists back then even not wanting the RAF to have a trial
But I can’t say that the DDR was really better tho, with Honecker not giving a shit about reforms, it was doomed to fail.
But I would really like an alternative universe where private businesses are taxed way more in order to fund the DDR style of state owned businesses, essentially acting as a replacement for Bürgergeld but in a way where people who are not desirable in a capitalist market can still work, climb the ladder and find themselves with all the social benefits of a social system
Is that a meme I’m not nearly a tankie enough to understand?
ain’t no way this comrade used “tankie” unironically as an insult, how’s the CIA pay?
I ain’t a comrade with anyone fedjacketing casually like that.
Well you do frequently say shit indistinguishable from what an actual fed wrecker would say.
even if they have to sacrifice their most marginalized in the process.
Also what the actual fuck dude. They didn’t sacrifice anyone to overthrow their dystopian police state whatever that means (all states are “police states”) they were crushed by NATO and the west and the illegal dissolution of the USSR at the behest of western capitalist interests. And here you come out claiming it’s fine to throw queer people under the bus to overthrow the state and plunge your society into actual dystopia because “state bad” do you fucking hear your self? Man fuck you.
Ye ok mate, keep deluding yourself that the civilians had no agency whatsoever. Classic ML cope every time another state capitalist dystopia (aka “AES”) collapses in on itself into yet another liberal democracy.
Also note I never said it’s fine. I just said that these rights are not unique to state capitalism (clearly), and that relying on a police state to maintain them means you lose them when the police state inevitably is torn down
Let’s see how many more uncharitable hexbears we’ll get now that this was cross-posted to slop.

Left unity is when anarchists get to be insulted but can’t stand up for themselves.
Hexbear thinks posting online is praxis, it’s why they don’t go outside enough to learn how to socialize.
Edit: still crashing out I see, you’re so not angry.

I never said that. You’re just crashing out because you said some really stupid shit again and got called on it.
