wow just wow
TG posted:its pretty funny that in a thread where bhpn is pointing out that imperialists are using the issue of homosexuality as a smokescreen to cover up important economic issues surrounding the dprk, the discussion has been all about homosexuality instead of issues dealing with socialism and the dprk
its almost as if his really bad choice of title was intended to teach some sort of metalesson
Wow, BHPN is really operating on a whole other level. This is some matrix shit.
2 is the argument rly that men having sex w each other maintains oedipal structure bc that's a) not being evidenced at all b) seems v liberal target of attack (negating not the negation) c) implicit argument for incest (!) n a weird new phallic regime founded in heteronormative freedoms n taboos rather than their negation
3 I see inconsistency in arguing that criticism of eg Syria, anti imperialist resistance, is bad but lending ammunition to homophobia in the form of a left statement (gay =bourgeois) is good. Why the shift in priorities? Soviet nostalgia is not a good method for acquiring a coherent line

this is a good post but im not that next level #deathoftheauthor. I just made a thread title that would actually get ppl to discuss things in neo-LF instead of ignoring effort like the Black Panther thread. I'll change it lol
babyhueypnewton posted:I like how ppl freak out that the DPRK forces socialist haircuts and socialist clothing, omg so silly! My choices of consumerism are completely my own and are in no way mediated by ideology and reification of fashion
actually its the same as being in the u.s. military, the most successful socialist establishment on the face of the earth
roseweird posted:to be clear my point is that the foreign policy priorities of western socialists (or anyone else) almost invariably have nothing to do with the populations concerned and everything to do with an individual socialist's private sexual and family issues and personal ambitions, such that foreign policy narratives totally divorced from the life and capability of the individual come to establish that individual's moral and political orientation in spite of the individual's absolute irrelevance and ignorance
deadken posted:imperialist governments put pressure on third world states by engineering shortages of consumer goods and then saying they point to inefficiency. therefore all consumer goods are bourgeois trash. toilet paper is counter-revolutionary and imperialist and indicative of arrested anal-stage eroticism and anti-feminist. i wipe my ass with my right hand and lick off all the greasy crumbs, for anti-imperialist solidarity. “we should support whatever the enemy opposes and oppose whatever the enemy supports.” (quotations from mao tse-tung, chapter two: classes and class struggle). i'm communism. i'm dialectics.
actually come to think of it the bidet, which in bourgeois societies is sniffed at as an elitist affectation, is far more rational and humanitarian and consumes far less resources, energy and labor than the continual manufacture of toilet paper does. under socialism we will all have bidets
roseweird posted:im surrounded by heterosexual propaganda every day of every week but you never hear me saying stupid phrases like "heterosexual propaganda" so shut up lol
'heteronormativity', 'breeders', 'heterosexual hegemony', 'norms' all mean the same thing and we hear about them all the time
lets not be so precious as to pretend that none of us are not oppressed by the propaganda of oppositional lifestyles
back as a young un' i saw the streets filled with boisterous queers who were all like 'we're here, we're queer, get over it!'.....i got over it but they haven't seemed to
