Essays

  1. Transphobia exists in Muslim countries like Palestine, but for the sake of tactical unity I and my friends stand with it [8] -> ...for the sake of tactics you support Palestine? the rest of the essay seems to be leaning toward a "marginalized identities inherently deserve to exist" sort of message. baffling.
  2. Slurs cause marginalized subpopulations to fight each other, which is bad because marginalized subpopulations fighting each other is equivalent to attacks from the outside [9] -> ah. they're pushing Rhizome. that's what they're doing.
    well. this thought is.... somewhat true. it would only be useful in situations like the 14 nationalities of the Soviet Union all linking up across a huge area. or Lenin trying to unite the different movements into a nation-sized movement. some situation where the issue is a big bigger than just people saying slurs. I want to give this proposition a slightly better swatch than blue. it gets..... the Juche swatch color. it's center-wing nationalism. it gets you to about Kim Il-sung level if you're really trying.
  3. Genocide is dying in darkness alone [10] / In the First World persecution takes the form of attacks on isolated individuals a few at a time as opposed to attacks on broad populations -> a bit overly poetic but actually kind of true.
  4. his history of moderate transphobia and veiled Stalinist arguments [11] -> this one needs some more context to figure out what it really means. there is some baggage inside the word "Stalinist" but I don't know what it is.
  5. I'm not anticommunist but... -> on a miscellaneous blog post, author claims to aim to "synthesize good Communist praxis outside academia, for the workers of the world to do in kind". [12] Communist is a very peculiar word to use for someone who outright called out "Stalinists", which tends to signal some kind of strange and highly specific alignment.
  6. Schizoanalysis is part of Communism -> I have seen this in two different places now, although the other one was hopefully ironic.
