Uh, have you considered that I spent the whole weekend gooning?

Policing what consent adults do with each other is bad and should be opposed.

I don’t think kinky people are a sexual minority group the same way gay or lesbian people are.

However it is stigmatized in our puritanical society to the point it can result in hateful behavior. For example there have been cases of couples into bdsm with kids having CPS called on them. So I get why some people see it as adjacent to LGBT struggles since both have a common social conservative antagonist.

furries or BDSM enjoyers are 1.) minority groups in need of a caucus in a communist party

Yes a thing many people have actually advocated for.

Again, if the queer community largely doesn’t care I don’t see why I should.

Ukraine def doesn’t.

I’m not LGBTQ myself so I’d rather not opine on whether their community thinks furries and bdsm folk should be included in their community at all but I’d say most queer people I know wouldn’t give a fuck if and when they show up at a pride parade.

Hey the exact sort of weird shit I was talking about!

Lol I don’t really get how you’re getting all this from a comment about how some English speaking ML spaces attract weirdos who hate furries.

This was years ago and mostly on Reddit subs I’m pretty sure are all banned now so I don’t really have anything for you

Edit: Pretty sure all these people moved to Twitter now, just look for anyone with a Mao avatar but who also uses the word “d*generate” unironically.

I maybe should have said “forum” specifically.

Pretty much every other ML or Maoist forum I ever participated in either got banned or a bunch of weirdos who were really more just nationalists for countries that are/were socialist showed up and started posting all the time about how Furries should be sent to a gulag and other weird shit. But then again I don’t leave Hex much these days so maybe things have changed

I kinda get it if the niche, small, online community is the only discussion space for a thing, but still…

We are kinda the only ML online space that doesn’t have a bunch of weird PatSoc social regressives bumbling around, that I know of at least

It is funny how many people there are here are like “I despise this niche, small, online community and everyone in it! Which is why I actively participate in it FAR more than the average user!”

I mean it’s not a lot but it’s more than I’d expect.

According to half the people here that is the MOST reactionary thing.

(Unless you’re doing it to tell everyone how reactionary it is)

What ISN’T reactionary? I feel like that would be a shorter list.
