Yeah, sorry, but I know there are many LGBTQIA+ people here for which LGBTQIA+ issues are often existential (i.e, murder by bigots).
But we do have to acknowledge that Western bourgeois democracies are more progressive on LGBTQIA+ issues and that this will become a splintering line by bourgeois establishments, and this has to be brought into discussion.
Western communist parties generally are pro-LGBTQIA+, but communist parties in the Global South are often more regressive (Laos, for instance, limits LGBTQIA+ discussions online, but culturally tolerates transgenderism). I can put out my critical support line, but it’s not a strong position to hold.
How do we sincerely engage with this problem?
factually incorrect, Cuba is the most progressive in the world.
The west pretends to be while allowing a ‘free press’ to agitate both the first and third world, communist sphere and such against lgbt+ people, we are captive.
That’s one state, which only legalized same sex marriage in 2022. If you bring out Cuba, I can bring up Iceland.
The rest of the block contains North Korea, China, Laos, and Vietnam.
LGBTQIA+ is essentially orthogonal to Marxism, but it’s a key lever of idpol in the bourgeois West.
Non-Marxist anti-imperialist states are usually quite traditional, and this brings out the neo-conservative challenge.

Maybe we should go over this bag of worms later.
Progress is progress, it proves being against it is not inherent to marxist states but likely more to do with fuedal social values inherited through the super structures such as the church.
IDpol is the generation of othering that liberalism pioneers (napeleon) and that is yet to be unlearned, simply supporting LGBTI+ comrades is not IDpol, it is a denial of it.
The goofball you were replying to not acknowledging this and then just saying “uh capitalists better” is such a bruh moment I don’t even know what to say. Huge L. The west has pretty much exported socially regressive politics…
