    Ooooh hell yea… China is still very culturally conservative. It reminds me of the youtuber CaptainCool07, even though he lives in San Fransisco. While he makes videos that give pretty decent insight into Chinese politics and history, his other content are however straight up lgbtphobic… talking about “wokism,” “family values,” etc. Bear in mind, this guy has also stated that he is not a communist/socialist, even though some of his content may appeal to MLs.

    From Russia’s POV, Western imperialism and LGBTQ+ has become synonymous, and this was no accident. Just look at the Lockheed Martin funded pride march from a while ago…

    Edit: I’m not trying to make the claim that Western imperialism and LGBTQ+ are synonymous, rather I’m commenting on how Western capitalists have co-opted LGBTQ+ movements and imageries, and this would have the effect of compelling Russia, or other global south countries who sees this, to stray towards a less LGBTQ+ tolerant direction.

    I found r/GenZeDong through r/Sino. And I first heard of r/Sino from some Vietnamese gusano on r/AsianMasculinity (liberal brainrot sub) complaining that the sub is “becoming r/Sino.” I was in these pro-Asian subs like AsianMasculinity and AznIdentity because of the spike in anti-Asian/anti-Chinese racism in 2020.

    ‘Identity politics,’ as some Marxists like to pejoratively put it, was what put me on this path and is what still keeps me here. I reckon a lot of the more dogmatic Marxists out there won’t like this, but fuck them… I worry the fuck out of what will happen to me or Chinese people in general within the next few years.

    especially if you also happen to be an Asian communist in a western country

    …That would be me LOL. Well, I’m fucked. I’m in KKKanada, and like Murikkka, we’re on a steady trajectory towards Fascism. If the govt doesn’t round us up, the chud ass people here will. Maybe they’ll shoot up Vancouver and Toronto’s Chinatowns, and maybe even bring in some nice strong ropes to lynch us like the good ol’ days… In the mean time, KKKanada may seem relatively civil and peaceful, especially compared to our southern neighbor, but I see the hatred and xenophobia, and I am staying vigilant, cuz I am genuinely anticipating things to devolve into a full on pogrom here if things go really bad. I mean, they’ve already done it to First Nations people (still is, in Wet’suwet’en land in BC), and the Japanese diaspora here during WW2 were also rounded up just like in Murikkka. Just ask David Suzuki… Also, the bulk of the world’s ultra far-right Ukrainian diaspora is here, and their numbers will probably swell once Putin beat they asses and force a bunch of them to flee here. Ain’t that nice? Ukrainian Nazis will be part of the lynch mob, and they can probably teach a thing or two to the Klanadians from their time lynching Roma people back home. The Nazis this government helped arm, fund, and train will come back to bite us in the ass.
