I’m guessing they did this because my comment didn’t have the correct positive vibes for them on their post when they’re the moderator.

It’s funny because 196 and almost all of its derivatives are rightfully anti-tankie because tankies promote centrism and conservatism directly harmful to trans and gay rights.

    Right, now stop being cute and tell me what those words mean in the context of each other. Define cultural Marxism. If they’re normal words, surely you know what they mean together.

      Idk how you’re not understanding this. Did you think I was just being dramatic when I said literal and therefor meant metaphorical?

        Marxism is explicitly a materialist worldview - it has no real way of comparing cultural qualities

        Unless you just mean ‘the culture of marxists’, but then you’ve pretty much taken up the term in its original meaning. Especially since the original post is about transgenter identity…

              Yes.

              This thumb is a subset of fingers, so when somebody said finger thumbs I didn’t immediately associate that with racist dogwhistles.

                Ideologies are a part of culture, but culture isn’t a part of all ideologies, see?

                “The culture of Marxism” is a misnomer - any distinct ‘culture’ that marxists might share is incidental to what marxism actually is. Suggesting that transgender expression is somehow a distinct feature of a culture ‘of marxism’ is exactly the thing ‘cultural bolshevism’ and ‘cultural marxism’ are pointing to.
