    Yeah… it’s still capitalism with Chinese characteristics - no matter how much you masturbate to pictures of Xi Jinping.

        Why do they do that? It’s so weirdly consistent. “Fact supported by evidence” “oh yeah, well… uh… uhn… you’re gay!” Like okay, so? I can’t speak for othe instances in the Fediverse but Hexbear is one of the queerest places on the internet, and the lib is still wrong.

          I have to imagine they’ve somehow convinced themselves that if they call us all gay enough, that we’ll burst into rainbow coloured flames like vampires exposed to sunlight.

          Well the short answer is Patriarchy. Accusing people of behaving in a way contrary to traditional ideas of masculinity is a classic technique for shaming people with heterodox views.

            Yeah, yeah, good point. It’s honestly shocking, I spend so much time in Hexbear I forget how common and casual misogyny and queerphobia are out in the ret of the world.

          “Fact supported by evidence”

          Oh, a tankie with facts, eh? Come on… do that little psychotic tankie thing where you paste a wall of text to try and pretend that China isn’t capitalist.

          I know you want to.
