@bimbomarxist I guarantee these people’s only idea of “queer community” is online discourse. In my experience with irl spaces, no one’s going to question whether you belong, they’re just going to assume you do since you showed up.
@anarchojunior @RyanCronk6 @DanielEngelsist I am a Marxist, I can still disagree with marx on some issues. Personally I don’t see the point in drawing distinctions where I don’t see differences. Once we’ve established a socialist state I’m happy to entertain anarchist motions for abolishing it.
@anarchojunior @RyanCronk6 @DanielEngelsist You distinguish between different modes of production based on who owns the means of production (Aristocracy, bourgeoisie, or proletariat). Also, having only one economic class is functionally indistinct from having zero.
@anarchojunior @RyanCronk6 @DanielEngelsist Your premise is flawed. The ends are not the same. Destroying the bourgeoisie doesn’t make you just as bad as them.
@anarchojunior @RyanCronk6 @DanielEngelsist Ah so to answer your precise question, the difference between DOTP and DOTB is that DOTP oppresses the bourgeoisie in favor of the proletariat, and DOTB oppresses the proletariat in favor the bourgeoisie. I assumed you were asking rhetorically
@anarchojunior @RyanCronk6 @DanielEngelsist The bourgeois class must be oppressed, for the safety of the proletariat and the planet. When they are not, they exploit. The nature of class warfare is that one class will be eliminated and another will triumph.
@Yiwmsh @DepravedBingus @bimbomarxist @5T0PH Choosing to engage in polyamory is not at all identical to being gay.
I care about this exclusion bc the community has finite resources (beds in shelters, scholarships, time spend managing web forums, etc) and I want to make sure those resources go to people in the community.
@Yiwmsh @bimbomarxist @5T0PH At the moment I am only excluding polyamorous people, as that is all we are talking about. As I’ve said, the case with intersex people is more complicated. The case with cishet polyamorous people is not. Relationship styles are not identities.
@Yiwmsh @DepravedBingus @bimbomarxist @5T0PH I can think polyamorous people deserve respect without thinking they’re LGBT. In general I think all people deserve respect unless proven otherwise, which includes straight, cis people, including the polyamorous ones
