Look at this monstrosity New Zealand pumped out during World War II. Built in case of Japanese invasion, the tank was made by slapping corrugated iron on a tractor and calling it a day. The Japanese tanks were hardly great, but a Ha-Go is infinitely better than this. Nonetheless, I love it for its shittiness.

    "There is no genocide being carried against trans people, stop whining, even though we have politicians everywhere criminalizing their existence and treating them as subhuman, violence against them in the streets, women stomping down on them under the thin veneer of protecting women's spaces, there's no genocide bro."

    Also there's this weird narrative being pushed that white transfems are racist or single minded, but as a black dude I've met several white transfem who were educated on Malcolm X, Pan-Africanism, were pro Black Power and pro BLM.

    Maybe this is an burger thing because the ones I met were mostly canadian, or maybe I'm just not terminally online enough to run into people like that.

    Sorry this ended up being a vent but I needed to get this out

    There is a noticeable number of racist white trans women, even on this site, having an oppressed identity doesn't mean it's impossible for you to hold bigoted views against others or even your own group, I've seen first hand white transwoman being racist or having racist brain worms.

    THIS SHIT MAKES ME FERAL monke-rage

    The other communists here in Brasil love to say this shit (at least online) and I have to keep telling them this is bullshit. To them "identity politics" is imported from the US and that just by toppling capitalism everything will be solved, our issues be damned, honestly they just need to fuck off.

    Race and gender and other so called identity issues aren't somehow separate from class and "econimics".

    People need to actually fucking read theory. All the people complaining about "identity politics" clearly don't understand things diallectically
