Queer Unit Formed Against ISIS

Postby Improved werpland » Tue Jul 25, 2017 9:57 am

nternational Revolutionary People's Guerrilla Forces (IRPGF) has announced that Queer Insurgency and Liberation Army (TQILA) has been formed to combat ISIS in Syria.

Being a component of the International Freedom Battalion, the IRPGF was formed on March 31, 2017. The IRPGF, which is an anarchist group, consists of volunteers coming from various countries to fight ISIS in Syria.

The IRPGS in its statement issued yesterday to announce the TQILA said that “Our resolution in our struggle against authority, patriarchy, oppressive heteronormativity, queerphobia, homophobia and transphobia has strengthened with revolutionary advancements and struggle of Kurdish women”.

Jesus...

In all seriousness this is good work on their part. Ideally they wouldn't be fighting on the side of a group affiliated with terrorism, but beggars can't be choosers I suppose.

Edit: be sure to visit the source, there are some pictures there I couldn't fit in this post.

I'm guessing that's what their acronym is if you wrote it in Kurdish.

That's what it had in parentheses. I just noted that sounding the acronym out almost immediately became 'Tequila'.

We've kinda always had homosexuals fighting ISIS. Unless the US and allies don't count.

Good for them. I support the IFB, just wish they weren't so anarchist.

I would make a joke on how ISIS esplodes on their own for little to no reason, but I feel I would be banned for anti-Muslim jokes.

Eh, so long as it's Anti-ISIS and not explicitly Anti-Muslim, yes? When it comes down to it, the Muslims and Christians, y'know, they're the two groups who get buttfucked the most by ISIS.

Bongs make for good weapons. Looks unassuming, then boom, knock a motherfucker out with that thing and ya still have time to have yourself some bong rips.

As for dildos? Not much purpose besides wacky bachelorette parties and sad suburban housewives.
