       "Xi, anyone?"
       Are you saying Duginism actually has appeal outside of Turandom?

       But Hungary is an ex USSR country. Is it not true that LGBT is
       popular outside of Turandom, which is what he says following the
       phrase you quoted?
       "Soviet anti-colonial legacy"
       Agree that this is nonexistent. But the point is that the
       countries in question [I]perceive[/I] Russia this way.

       I have been posting about this for years! Remember Trump? Or
       Bolsonaro?
       "Is it not true that LGBT is popular outside of Turandom"
       US Red states are outside of Turandom. Is LGBT popular in US Red
       states?
       "the countries in question perceive Russia this way."
       If Russia were as pro-LGBT as US Blue states, do you think the
       currently pro-Russia countries would emphasize supposed "Soviet
       anti-colonial legacy"?

       LGBT issue is used a geopolitical weapon, most notably by
       neocons who want to portray non Western/Islamic countries as
       homophobic. This causes those countries to view LGBT itself as
       bad, but I agree that this is the wrong approach.

       "neocons who want to portray non Western/Islamic countries as
       homophobic. This causes those countries to view LGBT itself as
       bad"
       It's also because they are insufficiently aware of their own
       non-homophobic pre-colonial history and the role of Western
       colonialism in introducing them to homophobia:

  HTML https://trueleft.createaforum.com/issues/legal-decolonization/msg15255/#msg15255
       Again, when they say "Western", they do not mean what we mean,
       but instead they mean Counterculture. So when they call
       themselves "anti-Western", they are actually
       anti-Counterculture. So then they look at Russia, which did not
       go through the Counterculture era and hence retained homophobia,
       and they do not classify Russia as "Western". Everythng is
       inverted.

       [quote]“White Fragility” author Robin DiAngelo was hoodwinked
       into dipping into her own pocketbook to pay reparations to a
       black producer in podcaster Matt Walsh’s upcoming documentary
       “Am I Racist?”
       An undercover, man-bun-wearing Walsh, 38, goaded DiAngelo into
       ponying up cash to his producer, Ben, to compensate for the sins
       of the past by first coughing up the money himself.
       Walsh, who had been conducting an interview with DiAngelo for a
       documentary project while feigning anti-racist sentiments and
       posing as an activist, summoned Ben after finishing up most of
       his questions.
       “This is Ben, a producer on the film. I thought it would be a
       powerful opportunity to speak directly to a person of color and
       confront our racism and also, apologize for the white
       supremacist systems that oppress Ben,” Walsh began.
       DiAngelo, 68, followed suit, saying, “On behalf of myself and my
       fellow white people, I apologize — it is not you, it is us. As
       long as I’m standing, I will do my best to challenge it.”
       Walsh then announced that he’d pay Ben reparations if he’d
       accept it, prompting his producer to quip, “I mean, I won’t turn
       it down.” Walsh then handed Ben a few bills from his wallet.
       “That doesn’t make up for 400 years of oppression, but it’s all
       that I have to give,” Walsh said.
       Taking hold of the new cash padding his wallet, Ben — fully in
       on the ruse — explained that he doesn’t “know if it’s ever
       enough” but praised Walsh for “putting in the work” and
       acknowledged the “small progress I think we made today.”
       DiAngelo looked introspective and bewildered as that unfolded.
       “That was really weird,” a perplexed and nearly speechless
       DiAngelo gasped before formulating a response after Walsh asked,
       “Did you wanna pay any—?”
       “I think reparations is like a systemic dynamic and approach,”
       she added. “I mean I think there may be some people who would be
       offended by [that].”
       Ben explained that he wouldn’t “turn down cash.” A
       solemn-looking Walsh then stressed the need to allow “ourselves
       to be uncomfortable.” He underscored, “This is something that I
       can do right now” and asked, “Why wouldn’t I do it?”
       “I can go get some cash for sure,” she relented after struggling
       to beat back Walsh’s and Ben’s logic. “I don’t mind if that
       would be something that would be comfortable for you.”
       After getting Ben’s blessing, DiAngelo then walked over to her
       pocketbook, pulled out roughly $30, and told him, “That’s all
       the cash I have.”[/quote]
       This is why I have opposed reparations in the form of money from
       the beginning. The only correct method of reparations is
       voluntarily refraining from reproducing (which DiAngelo to her
       credit has already done), thus DiAngelo should not feel under
       any pressure to pay money to Ben even if Walsh (apparently) paid
       first, because Walsh, unlike DiAngelo:
       [quote]He is married to Alissa Ann Walsh (née Linnemann),[125]
       whom he met on eHarmony.[126] They have six children, including
       two sets of twins.[127][128] Alissa Walsh has written that she
       has had seven miscarriages.[129][130][/quote]
       As someone who has never reproduced, DiAngelo should have told
       Ben that she is not "white". She should also have derided Walsh
       for performatively paying Ben spare change while spending
       undoubtedly many orders of magnitude more money on his own
       offspring, instead of giving to "non-whites" all the money he
       could have saved by not reproducing.

       TEAMSTERS RELEASE PRESIDENTIAL ENDORSEMENT POLLING DATA
       “For the past year, the Teamsters Union has pledged to conduct
       the most inclusive, democratic, and transparent Presidential
       endorsement process in the history of our 121-year-old
       organization—and today we are delivering on that promise to our

       members are the union, and their voices and opinions must be at
       the forefront of everything the Teamsters do. Our final decision
       around a possible Presidential endorsement will not be made
       lightly, but you can be sure it will be driven directly by our
       diverse membership.”
       The Teamsters have not yet endorsed any candidate for U.S.
       President. The union’s General Executive Board expects to
       announce a decision on Wednesday.

       Railing against "GAE" was the stupidest thing these non Western
       conservatives did. If anything, it is over glorification of
       heterosexual sexuality, which leads to veneration of high sexual
       dimorphism, intrasexual competition, and reproduction, that is
       the problem.

       So far we have only mainly seen targetings of the Ultra Orthodox
       Hasidic Jews, such as those in Crown heights. When will we see
       targetings of Silicon Valley machinists? Even "leftists" who
       portray Wall Street bankers as parasitic secretly like Silicon
       Valley because they are progressives (Silicon Valley is
       portrayed as "cool" and an alleged product of the
       counterculture).
       Demographic blueshift has no doubt slowed down machinism in the
       "old guard" Big Tech (Google, Microsoft), but it makes little
       difference as long as there exists machinists, as they can just
       start new companies (which they have been doing, such as
       Zuckerberg (Jew) and Altman (Jew))
