Yes actually Trump did factually achieve more to stop the genocide in Gaza than the Democrats. Far less Palestinians were killed under two years of trump than a year of Biden.

The point in the post is that the Democrat leader is a full throated massive Zionist. But if you want to appeal to imaginary numbers about Trump “genociding all Palestinians” like Blue MAGA folk did two years ago we can actually conclude the opposite. Democrats were far more genocidal. But of course you don’t care about Palestinians being genocided. You just want your treats and healthcare.

These guys really want Trump to win.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Security_Act_(South_Korea) only allowing for negative news against NK

Well, so I looked at the first article, and found some pretty interesting things in there, so I posted it:

Media in North Korea are under some of the strictest government control in the world. [...]

The North Korean government places stringent restrictions on foreign reporters, visitors, and even residents of foreign origin. Freedom of movement is severely curtailed, interactions with local people are supervised, and photography is heavily regulated. Because of this reporters often find it difficult to check stories and establish hard facts. North Korean and Western journalists have different understandings about the role of the media. (The situation is different for Russian and Chinese journalists reporting on North Korea). North Koreans expect Western journalists to behave like Soviet journalists during the Cold War, while Western journalists would like to exert the freedom of the press more widely. Researching topics like prison camps are out of bounds, and North Korean officials are often reluctant to give statements on the record. As with tourists, foreign journalists are always accompanied by minders, and any encounters with locals have been arranged.

Nothing more, nothing less. My post was removed by the moderator. Lol.

P.S.: no, I'm not posting this to PTB, since there's no doubt in my mind about what this is. I'm just sharing this for anyone who wants to have a laugh at the lunacy.

It’s getting about time for me to ban the entire .world instance. They’d rather uphold their civility laws than do what’s necessary to purge these little fucking shitheels from their system.

They don’t even know these assholes do this on purpose to silence anyone that disagrees with their dumb shit.

Apparently “Rule 3” is Politics’ interpretation of .ml’s “Rule 1”: a catch all used for when the mods don’t like what you say- regardless of it not violating a single rule.

What about this comment broke a rule? Because to me, it seems Politics is capitulating to the non-voters. Maybe .ml is paying their bills, who knows…

70 Years ago the USSR rolled tanks into Budapest to crush the Hungarian uprising. British communists invented the term "tankie" to describe comrades who supported the soviets crushing dissent.

Putin's favorite soldier posts a link to an interview in an attempt to prove that the people "behind Euromaidan" were fascists/"banderites", I point out that the article says the opposite. My comment gets removed, and I get banned. In other news, water is wet.

i generally dont pay attention too much to who’s who around here so I don’t have very many names memorized. Has anyone noticed any absences of note? Might be cool to have a list or at least be able to tag these clowns.

They’re actually removing posts/comments urging people to vote. Pretty bold for a bunch of cowards if you ask me.

(Not my post btw, just saw it in the logs)

The original post was some tankie propaganda, whining about how capitalist authoritarianism oppressed their stupid shit, meanwhile, the modlogs are full of the dipshit mod for that community banning and removing everyone that so much as whispered in the oppose direction of their little echo chamber.

So, I did what anyone with a few extra minutes and a healthy understanding of the concept of hypocrisy would do- I created an opportunity to allow the mod to step up and prove me right.

Telling when the mod has to remove the comments from the mod log because they entirely invalidate their manufactured propaganda piece.

Their historic figures and modern anti-Western states they so vehemently defend all have abysmal, actively hostile records and attitudes regarding LGBTQ+ rights and representation, with prosecution and state-sanctioned execution.

Their modern "anti-imperialist" states, which they frequently defend and look up to as bastions of their takes, are all steeped in state-sanctioned homophobia and illegality of queer identities. 

• China: The government systematically censors LGBTQ+ representation in media (check the thumbnail spoiler above) and shuts down queer NGOs, framing them as "foreign influences." Same-sex couples are denied legal recognition, marriage, and adoption rights. The government actively censors people who openly discuss and advocate for the lack of rights and recognition for LGBTQ+ communities, not even allowing depictions of gay relationships in their media. 

• Russia: The State has explicitly outlawed the "international LGBT movement" by classifying it as an extremist organisation. Expressing queer identity publicly or portraying it positively in media is illegal and heavily penalised. There are gay people who are beaten in the street who dare hold hands with each other, afforded no protection or rights. They don't allow marriage or gender identity. 

• Iran and Hamas: Here the situation is lethal, where under these regimes, homosexuality is criminalised and punishable by imprisonment, torture and even state-sanctioned executions. 

Then you have Marxist-Leninist figures, the architects and leaders, who were just as hostile to queer identity and LGBTQ people, calling being gay a Western deviancy and sending them to camps or killing them. 

• You have Stalin, who reversed the decriminalisation of homosexuality after the revolution, recriminalising it and calling it a symptom of bourgeois decadence and fascist depravity, where if you were openly gay, you were at risk of being sent to gulags or killed. 

• Mao Zedong heavily persecuted homosexuality during the Cultural Revolution, wherein later the State punished gay individuals under vague criminal charges of hooliganism and treating homosexuality as a mental illness by Western Capitalism. 

• Fidel Castro, of course, said that "a homosexual cannot be a revolutionary." And his government subsequently rounded up gay men to send them to labour camps, and otherwise viewed queer identities as unfit for socialist society. 

• Friedrich Engels mocked homosexual rights, calling its subjects "extremely against nature" and dismissing gay rights as "turning smut into theory." Marx received and circulated the letter without objection.

And then you have something much more local: Lemmy Developer, Nutomic, with their own moment: "The transgender topic is clearly promoted by the bourgeoisie, going as far as putting lgbt flags on government buildings, or allowing biological men to compete in women's sports at the Olympics."

Given all this, why would any queer person align themselves with an ideology whose foundational leaders persecuted them, and whose modern bastions or allies actively seek to erase them? 

Note: This post is not defending Capitalism, or attacking Communism. 

Y'all remember that meme about leftists caring about human rights issues and tankies countering that with nothing other than "that's CIA propaganda"? Well, someone . All I commented was "ITT: Insults, putdowns and whataboutisms". Well, now I'm banned from a whole range of Hexbear comms permanently. Reason:

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Lol.
