LOL like I had social credit! I’m an anarchist, typically among the first or second wave of political dissidents executed whenever a communist regime that would impliment such a social credit system takes power. Simply put: by the time that matters I’m already dead and hopefully took a few out omw.
I also like pointing out how homosexuals and trans folk have always been the first ones to get camped under communism.
East Germany, Cuba, Vietnam, Laos, filipino maoist insurgent marriages, oh and also all current socialist countries are making massive progress on lgbt issues while the minority of capitalist countries where communist led lgbt movements have succeeded in scoring some victories are backsliding.
Yeah Im bisexual and it blows my mind to see the LGBT+ folks on hexbear. It’s as if they have no grasp on history, have no understanding of what a nation trying to have a unitary identity frequently means for LGBT+ people, and haven’t bothered to realize that the nations at the forefront of LGBT rights have never included a socialist nation until last month’s reforms in Cuba (much respect for Cuba in doing this).
LGBT+ people, and haven’t bothered to realize that the nations at the forefront of LGBT rights have never included a socialist nation until last month’s reforms in Cuba (much respect for Cuba in doing this).
The GDR had more practical rights for lgbt people than the best capitalist countries for most of its history, and Cuba was better on lgbt rights even before the family code. Marriage equality isn’t the end all be all, especially in countries where marriage is less institutionalized by the government.
Fir whatever reason either Lemmy as a whole or my computer cannot link back to context right now. Im presuming this was about GDR not Cuba. The reforms that created the gay bars were made in 1985. GDR’s LGBT+ rights progress more or less mimicked the West apart from not actively criminally prosecuting homosexuals for homosexuality a bit earlier.
Famines were common before the revolution and in fact were one of the main causes of the revolution. Quality of nutrition improved after the Soviet revolution, and the last time USSR had a famine was in 1940s. CIA data suggests they ate just as much as Americans after WW2 peroid while having better nutrition: https://www.scribd.com/document/430076844/CIA-RDP84B00274R000300150009-5-pdf
We all have our guilty pleasures, I enjoy Stalin with a comically large spoon -memes but wouldn’t bother others with them.

-10,000 social credit. Bing chilling.

Though that never happened, it’s good that it happened. Warm regards from my moms basement.

And that equality is a liberal ideology.
And that social democracy fixes everything commies claim communism does, except that social democracy works.
Gets em everytime.

The GDR had good rights between 1985-1992 and really only on paper.
The fact is in most socialist nations LGBT rights lagged behind Western capitalist nations.
Could you back that up? They straight up had state sponsored gay bars and massive anti-homophobia programs
