Comment on Hexbear federation megathread
Pseudoplatanus22@hexbear.net 1 year agoWhat are you talking about? It’s the most explicitly pro-trans space I’ve ever seen. If your idea of autonomy is restricted to voting, that’s your problem. We believe in actual democracy, as in the voice of the people. Can you point me to a democratic system you aspire to which doesn’t ultimately exist to look after the interests of capital? That’s the problem we have with what you call democracy. The Nazis were promoted into power by establishment politicians to do exactly the same thing: protect the interests of capital by eradicating communists and trade unionists. The mass murder of Jews, Roma, LGBT people, and many other groups, was neither here nor there to the industrialists who backed the Nazis.
We will always react negatively to being called Nazis, because it’s so far from the truth as to be utterly laughable, if it weren’t so offensive to the members of our community who would have been oppressed by the Nazis, and who often are oppressed by modern bourgeois liberal democracies.
