Amen. Better dead than red!

Caelapes wrote:Not shitposting: We should stand with all oppressed people. The popularity of Trans Anarcho-Communist Lesbian Catgirls in the election is not at all frustrating to me. In fact, that popularity presents an organic opportunity to work to raise consciousness over LGBTQ struggles and how they intersect with the struggle for dignity of all working people.

At this point you're clearly just pandering in an attempt to hold onto the office you have held for 4 years, and in which you have failed to effect any changes. If you genuinely support equal rights for LGBTQ people, that's a good thing, but you are only mentioning it now in your campaign because you're getting beat by a user named "Trans Anarcho-Communist Lesbian Catgirls." Also, we need less communism right now, not more.

The candidate is a confirmed homophobe, and aside from that, I think it's rather patronising for me, as an LGBTQ person, to see this weird co-opting and very clear pandering to us. It's honestly sickening to watch.

An unfortunately-worded post lacking broader context from a decade ago does not make me a homophobe. Anyone who knows me or my work knows that I am opposed to bigotry of all forms and that I'm not just dressing myself up in inclusive language for cheap political points in a race that is an April Fools gag.

Caelapes is a typical champagne commie - they want to keep the poor poorer as long as this does not prevent Caelapes from driving a ferrari or sipping the finest bottle of champagne. Don't fall for it. Fight back for your World Assembly.

See how the WA Delegates of the GCRs try to pull the wool over the eyes of workers! All comrades know that not even my Red Fleet admiral's uniform is in my possession, as it was returned to the Fleet upon the conclusion of my duties. I reluctantly and with personal protest have accepted that the Comrade Members of The Internationale have granted me their highest honor, the medal and title of Hero of The Internationale. I am of the working class, and have never and will never be above it. This GCR Super-Delegate lashes out at us as we have been at their heels, and even overtook them in the third round for a time—it is precisely because of the intensity of the class struggle being waged between our campaigns that this paragon of WA corruption attacks our movement!

We reject pessimism—we have revolutionary optimism in our program and in our class's potential!

The real question here is why not? Do we need a reason to promote the stuggle of LGBTQIA peoples? We should use every opportunity, no matter how frivolous, to advocate for an oppressed minority. Trans Rights!

For one example, the existence of fascists contesting for a spot in the general election. Max Barry allows this site to give a platform to out-and-out fascists as long as they aren't too clear about who their war-as-hygiene-y'know-like-ethnic-cleansing aesthetic is supposed to be about. Fascism's most-developed project, that of Nazi Germany, is known for its vicious treatment of the LGBTQ population. The books burned in the most famous book burnings—an event that is so well known—are far less popularly understood than the mere fact that books were burned. They were the books of the Institute for the Science of Sexuality (Institut für Sexualwissenschaft)—the most advanced research of that time especially on important matters like trans health.

The Secretary-General election is an April Fools gag. Fascism is not.

The Berlin Wall was in existence for 28 years. NationStates has only been in existence for 18 years, and the World Assembly only 12 years.

According to your own math, Communists will control the World Assembly for another 16 years or so!

She is left-of-centre though, and is also friends with Redternetia, a member of the NSLeft. Once the final round is upon us, that is when the cards will get really mixed up.
