    Ahhhh liberals, spreading the same sinophobia and anti-DPRK sentiment as the righties worded a bit different and with a pride flag 😄 🫠

      Even among leftists, the AES countries are a sore subject. Most leftcoms, libcoms, trots, hoxhaists, and maoists are critical of places like the DPRK (if they don’t just outright reject them in their entirety.)

      don’t forget the red-scare propaganda, almost exactly as told by the far-right

            It’s generally seen as a submissive act to do it to someone else. There’s nothing inherently wrong with it, just like there’s nothing inherently wrong with wanting to lick your partner’s feet. However performing a submissive act of that nature on someone who doesn’t deserve it is questionable and kinda sad.

            Inb4 “ur homophobic”

            A) I’m not taking an accusation like that from someone who’s username is mathemachristian

            B) I literally told my girlfriend the other day that when I visit her I’m going to suck her dick so hard she’ll think she had bottom surgery. IDK what the fuck that was supposed to mean, but she liked it.

            Edit: I’ve seen people try to set that trap before. It’s a cheap way to “gotcha” someone and is usually used to try and accuse them of being homophobic (something about sucking dick being something only gay men do, which isn’t even remotely true lol). I see people resort to stuff like that when they don’t have anything of more substance. It also ignores that the potential that the user themselves is gay.

            Yes.

            Please.

            Tell me how I, a transbian, am homophobic.

            Edit 2: apparently people thought I was saying “you don’t have to suck their dick just because they’re questionably communist” was supposed to be an insult? No, it’s not the act itself lmao. I’ve sucked cock and I’ve been told I’m very good at it, and that’s not something I shy away from. Nor is there anything wrong with being a sub. I’m a really subby furry ffs. No, it’s the idea that someone would suck an authoritarian’s dick is what I find issue with. It’s not the what, it’s the who. Just like I’d be very concerned if you were sucking off Trump; however if you said you wanted to suck off some widely loved political figure or celebrity then I’d be all for it.

              Are you trying to tell me you did not mean “suck their dick” in an insulting way like “lick their boot”? That you meant it in an actually very sex-positive way?

                What irks me about sexual insults is that they require sex to be seen as shameful in order to work. If you understand sex as nothing more than a personal matter between adults, without any ‘special’ significance, then the insult can only be annoying in an unintended way.

                I understand that it is supposed to be a crude metaphor for getting a point across, but it is really lazy rhetoric and only feeds into Northern culture’s need to stigmatize sex as shameful or shocking.

                performing a submissive act of that nature on someone who doesn’t deserve it is questionable and kinda sad.

                Even if that were the case here, it would be nobody else’s business, just like Mossy Feathers’s sexual relations with her lover aren’t—or at least shouldn’t have been—any of our concern. This is exactly the sort of unsophisticated thinking that I would expect from somebody who uses sexual insults.

                  Spot-on. It requires sex to be negative. Those who use sexual insults often confuse destigmatizing sex in general with taking a sex-positive stance, just because you use sex in conversation doesn’t get rid of the regressive overtones.

                I just meant “quit pleasuring an authoritarian shithead”.

                Are you trying to tell me that you thought I was saying that sucking dick is inherently a bad thing? I’m a fucking furry. Are you actually serious right now? It’s not the act, it’s who you’re doing it to, ffs.

              Yes we already know that societally it’s employed as a homophobic and highly sexualized demeaning slur. Everything you wrote after is just apologizing for your use of it.

              If it’s not homophobic because women can also suck dick, provide a single example of this attack being deployed on a woman.

                I’m a woman. I’ve been told to stop sucking someone’s dick, and someone told another friend to stop doing it to me. And before you ask, no, I don’t have screenshots because I’m not a weirdo who feels the need to record every VC/VRC conversation I have.

                  This clarification feels tedious but apparently necessary: a political attack made in public.

                  I wonder if you’d defend the f-slur as not being homophobic because some gay friends of mine might use it subversively. That is not in the context you were asked for an example.

          It’s entirely possible to be a communist while also believing that NK is a shitty country.

          You have missed the point entirely, NK isnt a “shitty country” because that is just a false narrative put forth by the empire’s massive media manipulation/propaganda anti-communist machine.

          What’s wrong with that? Without authority in the current world context, you simply get eaten alive. The DPRK has to spend a lot of resources into it’s military, much much more than then would like, because otherwise they would get fucking bombed back to the middle ages by the americans, again.

              The dprk doesn’t exist in a vacuum, many of these policies are in place due the constant state of exception the DPRK is in due to US economic sanctions and US military bases in south korea, which they perform invasion drills every single year. I very much prefer how they live than how countries live after they’re bombed the US, e.g. Libya. And i cannot imagine a well read south korean being content with their position as a vassal, like it or not, north koreans have much more actual freedom
