  • What's a good response to someone saying "just change your gender"?

    Jump

  • Just say you don't want to change your gender, that it shouldn't be expected that one should have to change their gender for fair treatment. The gender you were born as and identify with should grant you equal treatment in society, otherwise is kind of a crazy "gotcha".

  • Shut the fuck up cracker, there's no "reading" which can cover such vastly different regions of the world with their own queer histories. By bringing up your orientalist ideas of the global south you're only proving your own stupidity. You clearly exist in a context in which the trans flag is common and a clear indicator to pay special regards to that user's pronouns, and instead of just apologizing and moving on you're making a mockery of yourself by trying to use your own racism to disguise your transphobia.

  • What do your racist ideas of a homogenous global south with no queers have to do with this. Literally why say this.

  • {我只吃素菜 | Wǒ zhǐ chī sù cài} "I Only Eat Vegetarian Food" and { 你们有素菜吗 | Nǐ men yǒu sù cài ma?} "Do you have vegetarian food?" have been my go to phrases when my brain's too busted to speak the Mandarin I do know. If all else fails you can always hit them with the { 我不能吃肉 | Wǒ bù néng chī ròu} which is "I don't eat meat"

  • Famously conflict only happens when burly guys with guns show up to a place, no other form of conflict exists. Not political warfare, not economic warfare, not even social warfare. No. It's all guys with guns.

  • Books or papers I should read on Anarchism that would challenge my bias towards Marxism/Leninism?

  • Yeah but this hangup is also disconnected from the actual reality of living in socialist societies outside of their most turbulent times. The United States is already the most surveilled society and it doesn't effect most people; only political actors working against the status quo and those recruited by intelligence agencies to shoot up a mall. As well, friends snitching on friends, it's reminiscent of only a short era of Soviet history that's often highly exaggerated.

    However I can't blame you for your hangups, except to say that after talking to comrades in multiple different existing socialist nations, I simply don't have them anymore. If you ever get the chance to talk to communists in real communist parties, I think your worries will fade away. They're largely like all the punks and progressives I know in my life if they were simply given the political education and support to make their society better. I can't guarantee this is true in all cases, clearly, but socialist governance is far more humane and elevates far better members of society than the bourgeois governance we're both used to. It really does set the stage for a better humanity.

  • Doesn't it seem reasonable that the idea of trying to create a classless society would be a task better suited for those who come after us? For example, the promise of socialism is that democracy is then increased to be available to the wider masses of people. Socialist societies have in the past, and even in the modern day, demonstrate that they're able to make huge leaps in social progress that enable more people than ever before be able to participate in the democratic processes of a society. I guess I'm not convinced that the idea that "Leninsts would not break down their own state" is something which is provable, and thus not a useful heuristic for making decisions. So what if "Leninists" aren't capable of the next step in the growth of humanity, it's been shown that they'll give up on their power much more peacefully than societies dominated by the bourgeois class ever will (even and especially communist officials who didn't benefit from the transition to liberal governance). If we're able to save the planetary ecosystem with cybernetic planning, end hunger, guarantee housing and work for those who're able and a good life for those who aren't as the "Leninists" demand; won't we have left our children with far more fertile soil for an anarchist society than if we simply struggle directly for a classeless society today?

  • Are we allowed to have discussion on these points in this thread? Because one thing I never understood is the idea that the socialist projects have to wither away so fast, I never got how anyone thought we were at any time in modern history at a point where the coordination created by socialist States could be torn down safely while preserving the gains made.

    With the richest countries in the world and many of their colonies, with all the nukes and military one could imagine, breathing down on your doorstep I don't know how it's rational to think that you should then begin tearing down the structures which were then only created out of historical necessity to fight against these very forces. Do Anarchists (capital A) generally believe that the period for communist parties to prove they can transition towards a classless society has passed, and that they've somehow proven they're incapable? Or do they think that the chance hasn't been available yet but that if it was then communists would then prove themselves incapable of transitioning towards communism?

  • Wow that's crazy! I didn't know they did away with the two systems policy, I must be crazy, because I went there and it was clearly different in numerous ways from the rest of China. Weird!

    I also wonder how many people were killed by police during those demonstrations, I know many Americans were killed and gravely injured by their police forces now and during BLM.

    Additionally, if HK was such a good democracy beforehand, why did the "pro democracy" camp only have 29 seats out of possible 70 if they represented the majority of people in Hong Kong? Maybe in the US if we had a party that did away with right wingers and made housing more affordable that would be a good thing, it seems to have been working pretty well for HKers since.

  • Actually yes, it's very common in China to have people maybe mention or discuss the June 4th Incident, in China it's simply called {六四事件| Liù Sì Shìjiàn}. Everyone in China has seen this image, yet still more than 95% of Chinese in a Harvard Study were found to feel positively about the Beijing Government.

    Additionally there is very little to no internet censorship in Hong Kong whatsoever due to the One China Two Systems policy. Beyond information of the June 4th incident genuinely being accessible in Mainland China, it's in addition "extra accessible" in HK. Many even speak and read English in Hong Kong due to English colonization so they could look at your post if they wanted.
