Not excusing anything, but the right has always been globally networked. Anti-woke discourse was already making its way into young Chinese male spaces 10-12 years ago, and China's TERF wave came through similar channels. Borders don't create some magical "essential difference."
decolonization is a funny term i swear if you think abt how imperialism is currently still ongoing around the world the call to undo the thinking processes behind it feels like putting the cart before the horse
Not only did Bechdel attend Michfest until its closure - which is the event the term TERF was literally created fot - this comic implies that transphobic discrimination is bad becayse it harms cys butch women and not trans women.
americans when they have to suffer through 0.0001% of the anti communism their country dished out to other countries (it was bad for them) (all our communists died) (unlike the other countries)
You all greatly underestimate the horrors of McCarthyism. Assassination attempts, mob violence, terrorism, political persecution, purges, etc. were all decisive in the weakening the Communist Party. If you ever spoke to a McCarthy victim you could never say something like this.
The CCP is the only thing standing between Japan and the Chinese people. A democratic China would have destroyed Japan long ago. I hate the CCP for being too meek.
