In Shift From 2020, Identity Politics Loses Its Grip on the Country
  • 'bout fucking time (if true)

    It was always a ploy to torpedo class consciousness, and baizuo fell for it hook-line-and-sinker

    Oldest trick in the book is to divide the working class. They keep doing it because people keep falling for it.

    Misgendering does not rule
  • I mean, there's misgendering and misgnedering, isn't there?

    Accidentally calling a woman a man on the internet coz u didn't know is not a big deal.

    It can be something liberals use for their witch hunts.

  • Antisemitic incidents in US surge to record high - report
  • Let's see what stats the BBC is using....

    Reports of antisemitic incidents in the US have reached a record high since last year's Hamas attack in Israel, according to a preliminary report from the Anti-Defamation League Center for Extremism (ADL).

    wow what a surprise

  • If Palestine got to have its own recognized (by everyone including Israel) and sovereign state, what other different current nation would it most likely resemble?
  • Then again, they probably couldn’t be part of EU with something like that on the books, no?

    It's got nothing to do with the EU because it goes back hundreds of years. Ireland joined the EEC 21 years before legalising the gay.

    the usual antihomosexuality laws and hangups other Muslim nations have.

    This is overstated by liberals who want to create a "West = pro-gay", "Rest = anti-gay" narrative

    I'm not sure it has ever been true that the Woids love gays and the Muslims hate them.

    PDF warning: "Europeans at the beginning of the nineteenth century referred to same-sex relations and homoerotic behavior as the “‘Persian disease,’ ‘Turkish disease,’ or the ‘Egyptian vice’ ”"

    Scholars wrote "Persian literature is essentially a homosexual literature"

    Contemporary to this, the Brits are doing Oscar Wilde to death for sodomy. And the Ottomans were gaying it up, creating the modern idea of a Turkish Bathhouse. And which Empire governed Palestine until 1917? And which Empire took it over after that?

    It was the British who passed anti-gay laws in Palestine, it having been legal under Muslim rulers.

    Don't buy into the liberal idea that Muslim=anti-gay. Have you ever been to Afghanistan? Gayest culture I've ever seen.

  • If Palestine got to have its own recognized (by everyone including Israel) and sovereign state, what other different current nation would it most likely resemble?
  • I’m interested in how a free Palestine would play out in terms of what that would mean for women, gays, children, people of non-muslim religions, in terms of personal freedoms, etc. For the average citizen/denizen what would that look like?

    Well the future doens't permit accurate predictions.

    Ahmad Yusuf, the deputy foreign minister of Hamas, said in 2010 that he wanted a country like Turkey, not like the Taliban:

    According to Yusuf, who said he is writing a book called “Erdoğan and a New Strategic Vision,” the Taliban is “opposed to everything,” including education and women’s rights. “Erdoğan’s model, on the other hand, is liberal. It is a model that dares to take responsibility and change things and establishes good relations between the religious and secular elements of society,” he said. “It is a model that works for democracy and human rights, and supports an open society. That is what we want.”

    inb4 Woids saying Erdoğan isn't liberal enough for them: homosexuality is not criminalised in Turkey, Bülent Ersoy is a major celebrity.

    I'm not praising Turkey, I'd see Erdoğan gone if I could, I'm just getting some facts out b4 Woids say Turkey is Muslim therefore intolerant. It has freedom of religion too.

    Also worth mentioning that Ahmad Yusuf is one politician among many, expressing one possible vision for the future of Palestine. There are other political currents swirling internally.
