Our goal is to be the one stop shop for leftism here at lemmy.world! We welcome anyone with beliefs ranging from SocDemocracy to Anarchism to post, discuss, and interact with our community. We are a democratic community, and as such, welcome metaposts that seek to amend the rules through consensus. Post articles, videos, questions, analysis and more. As long as it's leftist, it's welcome here!

Remember, Republicans say "protect", but they mean "control."

Even that's the old republicans. These perverts want to look at children's genitals. Fucking weirdos

Fascists are fucking perverts. And I don't mean that in a fun, anti-system way. I mean freakishly, evil perversion.

The 1950s ideas that sexual repression is what caused the Nazis were wrong but thet were onto something about fascism and sexual expression.

Fascists are freaks, and again I stress as a queer, non-normative sexual expressive person, not in a fun way.

Tradwife shit is literally just bondage and domination without enthusiastic consent.

Not that I disagree with your assessment, but this is just another kind of control - it's about having power over a person's body, while denying them the agency to stop you. Sexual abuse and rape are rarely driven by lust or desire; they come from a need to dominate, to manipulate, and to express total power over someone.

Let's not forget legalising child labour, as well as mandating child labour.

I must isolate and protect you from yourself. Pet
