MOSCOW, Nov 30 (Reuters) - Russia’s Supreme Court ruled on Thursday that LGBT activists should be designated as extremists, in a move that representatives of gay and transgender people fear will lead to arrests and prosecutions.
A Reuters reporter in court heard it announce that it had approved a request from the justice ministry to recognise what it called “the international LGBT social movement” as extremist and to ban its activities.
This is why I cannot consider the so-called leftists who oppose taking action against a fascist like Putin to be actual leftists. Putin is a hard right dictator who violates every principle of human rights at every turn.
Tankies are authoritarians, the left/right angle doesn’t matter there.
Inb4 “read On Authority, a book I haven’t read, and if I read it I’d realize it was not pro-authoritarianism but actually anti-pacifism”
Yeah, no.
As an anarchist, it’s just authoritarianism.
Fuck your hierarchies and top-down systems of oppression. Fuck supporting genocidal dictators.
Go read the conquest of bread and liberate yourself.
If you do not understand that there is a need for some authorities, you are both fucking stupid and a terrible anarchist.
Do better. Anarchy is about identifying what authority must exist and in what form it would best exist. If your answer is, “all authority is bad.” Then you have failed. Try again.
“YoUr NoT aN aNaRcHiSt unless you want to be stepped on by a cop.
Haha, very funny now fuck off kid.
You are fundamentally too stupid to be an anarchist. You have to strawman what I said to even respond. You are truly pathetic.
How about you demonstrate some of that anarchist wisdom and tell me how you’d arrest a murderer that doesn’t want to be arrested. Someone, including random other citizens at the time of need, needs the authority to forcibly stop them, you fucking idiot. Authority still needs to exist with or without cops.
Again, you fucking idiot. Defending the necessity of authority shouldn’t implicitly defend police unless you have a child’s understanding of anarchist theory.
Just fuck off kid.
No one cares about your internet temper tantrum.
Your inability to logically engage is pathetic. You cannot even defend yourself. You’re a joke. Do better.
‘Leftists’ like N Korea, China, and Russia supports make me ashamed to be a leftist. This is what happens when all your leaders die 40 years ago, the movement gets silly.
Don’t be ashamed to be a lefty. Shame THEM for dare calling themselves leftists while espousing polite words for autocrats and dictators. They are pathetic and a detriment to progress and they need to know it.
And get banned for questioning orthodox bullshit
Idk the leaderless portions can be silly but we feed people to feed people, we fix up bikes to fix up bikes, we send prisoners books and propaganda to help prisoners. We may not be perfect, and our terminally online portions are terminally online, but we’re out there helping the proletariat.
That’s like a republican saying “we donated to a charity” while pushing for a bill that would restrict black peoples right to vote.
You can’t claim to be helping us while in the same breath actively working for our long term oppression.
What kind of action are you referring too? What more can we do?
They went so far authoritarian left, they ended up authoritarian right.
