Yup. People who don’t see the difference between the two are not effected by the difference between the two.

Problem is not even LGBTQ+ people, nor women, nor black people have a real big difference between Biden or Trump. Because at best, Biden is no worse than Trump.

but I have had conversations with self described communists who don’t care at all about minorities

So have I, and from the little conversation I've had with the few of them it was quick to realize they are not communists, but posers, reactionaries and people who've read to little and jumped only on the aesthetics wagon.

My takeaway was they became communist when they learned they could guillotine people.

Those fuckers are the worst. A communist outright glorifying violence, compared to one understanding it's need is not my comrade.

Could you please elaborate?

The border bill, roe v wade, trans people losing rights, book bans, drag queen bans (iirc), support for isreal and condemnation for the icc, fucking up the pandemic, and constant loss of purchasing power by working class americans

I'm sorry but the US is fucked to hell and back and I'm thankful everyday for not having been born there.

Try to avoid playing into these reactionary tropes. You don't have to meet @lemm.ee shitlibs on a single made-tf-up talking point.

im drunk sorry

edit: actually wait fuck no

there are plenty „self described communists” who dont give a shit about minorities, ive seen plenty even here in poland, hell i know of „self described communists” who are „against hamas”

and ive seen people who call themselves „communists” who act and say things no different from reactionaries

usually we get rid of those fucks really quickly but theses are not „made-tf-up” talknig points of things „that dont exist”

they are fringe and very little of the m but i had my fair share of experiences with such losers irl and god do they fucking suck

thats why i dont really like how the meme is too simplistic and could be taken as putting lgbtq people next to imperialist forces, and i know yogthos means through this meme that biden only pretends to care but that because i know yogthos
