¿Sabían que Karl Marx y Friedrich Engels utilizaron términos despectivos y ataques personales contra figuras homosexuales de su tiempo?

A finales del siglo diecinueve, la correspondencia privada entre los fundadores del marxismo reveló prejuicios profundos que eran comunes en la sociedad de su época. En una carta enviada el 22 de junio de 1869, Engels respondió a Marx sobre un folleto enviado por el activista Karl Heinrich Ulrichs, quien fue uno de los primeros defensores de los derechos de los hombres que amaban a otros hombres. Engels describió estas revelaciones como algo extremadamente contra la naturaleza y utilizó palabras insultantes para referirse a la organización de este grupo, expresando incluso temor por cómo sería el mundo si lograran triunfar políticamente.

Uno de los ejemplos más claros de esta marginación ocurrió con Johann Baptist von Schweitzer, un importante líder obrero alemán y seguidor de Ferdinand Lassalle. Marx y Engels aprovecharon la detención de Schweitzer por cargos relacionados con su vida privada para atacarlo y desacreditarlo dentro del movimiento socialista. Marx llegó a referirse a él con apodos ofensivos en sus cartas, mezclando sus diferencias políticas con ataques directos a su sexualidad. Estas reacciones demuestran que, aunque eran revolucionarios en lo económico, compartían los mismos estigmas y rechazos que el resto de la cultura de su tiempo hacia la diversidad.

Ponyboy (Eliot Duncan) – I'm a sucker for atmospheric prose, and Ponyboy seemed to give prose that echoed the protagonist's own chaotic, drug scrambled perception of his world in Paris and Berlin. It can make it a confusing read at times, but I felt that very much kept you inside Ponyboy's head as he gets trapped in his cycle of drugs, booze and godawful relationship choices.

For as much as I enjoyed that, I felt it was lacking enough threads in the final act to tie the themes together. On it's own, it's strong. But set against a large number of tragic and self destructive queer stories, it was hard to see this standing out and offering something beyond a final movement past hopelessness and into recovery. In many ways, that mirrors stories that stem from the personal. But for a story that can be so evocative, I felt it had more to give in this current climate than what was said on the page.
