It’s shit like this that makes me understand the difference between a Leftist, a Liberal, and a Tankie.
A Liberal is pro-LGBT rights when it suits them, but will happily queer-code their enemies because at the end of the day, some people are more equal than others.
A Leftist is a normal sane person who can tell which way the wind is blowing, prays for the revolution to come, and doesn’t care about what goes on in another comrade’s bedroom as long as it’s all consensual, unless they’re specifically invited in which case they may bring pizza and a flashdrive of a pirated copy of something classy and colorful to watch when the festivities are over.
And the Tankie would approve of the “God Hates [Slur]” signs, if only they said “Karl Marx”, “The State”, or really anything remnisicent of the kind of boots this particular group likes the lick, instead of “God”, but until that happens they’re allies… for now.
Two tragic truths, Horseshoe Theory is real, and the Democrats are Diet Republicans.

“Horseshoe theory” is a straw man attempt to defang the left.
I used to believe that, but then I met tankies.
