Queer✨Anarchist Anti-fascist
Well, we live in a society where some camgirls give a portion of their paycheck to fund their viewers at three letter agencies.
I was on a hacking team in college, and one of our best defensive people wears cat ears while working.
Everyone loves to say ACAB, but people often forget about the cop in their head
I’m sorry, you are being silly and rejecting reality.
Zionism literally is a political movement, founded by jewish people, with a desire to make their own state. Zionism isn’t new, and it is well over 100 years old. Check out this wikipedia article for a rundown.
To say that it is only a dogwhistle is just a rejection of reality. But it is also a convenient rejection of reality because it lets you vilify political opponents.
“Zionists” = Jews, an entire people.
Unfortunately, zionism is not equivalent to a group of people. Zionism, at least in this context, is a geopolitical position, not an ethnic or religious group.
To consider an entire population of people one-dimensional and hold a political position is harmful. I literally said this exact thing in an earlier comment.
Zionism, at least in this context…
To elaborate on this point, I’ll describe it in this context, and then describe it being used as an antisemitic dog whistle, so we should be on the same page.
In this context, zionism is a political ideology based around settler colonialism, and it led to the founding of Israel, among many, many other consequences.
The meme points out a really annoying tendency that I, as a queer person, and many others have seen when supporting palestine where pro-israel people will go “lol why do you support hamas, they will literally torture you and kill you for being LGBT” even though it is pro-palestine, not pro-hamas.
In the antisemitic dogwhistle context, it is simply used as a stand-in for “the jews”. If you think this is the context people on the left are using, you lack all forms of critical reasoning.
Based on what you said, this meme would indeed be racist if you view it from the antisemitic dogwhistle context. But it isn’t coming from there. To try and conflate the two is just trying to conflate opposition to a geopolitical position with racism.
So, are you gonna tell me what’s racist, or what?
I live near another military contractor, and I saw them in pride this year. I’d say this is real.
It’s pretty disgusting ngl
I don’t see anything racist about it, but I’ll take it down if it is racist.
I don’t see anything racist about the meme, but I’ll take it down if it is.
You think an entire people are one dimensional religious fundamentalists, based on an article of clothing worn by an entire people, even their queers?
Jesus fucking christ, you are being racist as hell
My first pride experience involved wearing a Kuffiyeh and shouting at my local military contractor’s HR department and the one visibly LGBTQ person as they strolled down the street appalled that people didn’t want them there.
No pride in genocide,
If you throw it at the windshield it will fit way better than the sidewalk
I would kill to listen to this
What the hell is going on in the background
I don’t know how I missed BOOG as boogaloo boy considering there are some active boogs in my area. Granted, I usually spot them based on apparel around political events and protests.
Good catch.
It reminds me of a rowdy protest I went to a good while back, where two people in full bloc were holding eachother, exasperated, having drove off the cops and then marched through the streets in defiance of the state. A third person comes in, and hugs the other two, and they swayed together slowly in the light spring breeze.
It was a rough day, some comrades were arrested, and there was still work to be done, but it was a fabulous moment while it lasted.
Straight? I was straight once. They locked me in a room. A rubber room. A rubber room with femboys. And femboys make me not straight.
Thats not a very fun fact 😿
