@igd_news How is this anti-fascist?
@saphkey @igd_news think for a few seconds about those who spread such queerphobic rhetoric.
@igd_news Ron and his supporters are hiding pedophiles to protect catholic church
@igd_news This is a decades old argument against gays. That they are all pedophiles. Has no scientific basis in fact. Just that the far right conservatives claim it to be true. Pedophiles are like 5% of any group of people, church, police, politicians, etc... that you want to look at, has nothing to do with gay, trans, etc...

not to mention COUNTLESS REPUBLICAN representatives

@igd_news

@igd_news look I believe in justice for all sexual violence but those are bad apples however I went to a catholic school from the year 2000-2017 & I was never molested.
@igd_news always read the community notices on utility poles #LifeHack
@igd_news nice but also they could use a graphic artist. But maybe lofi has it's advantages.
@igd_news What does that have to do with fascism/anti-fascism?
@clipperchip @igd_news try paying literally any attention to contemporary fascist discourse
@andrea @igd_news And you should try a dictionary.
@clipperchip @andrea There's been a rise in far-Right attacks and mobilizations against the LGBTQ community, which have manifested in everything from protests to mass shootings. At the same time, far-Right media has taken to branding LGBTQ as "groomers" while the Republican party has rushed to pass a slew of bills attacking queer and trans people and health-care.

This Week in Fascism – It's Going Down

A weekly roundup of the latest and greatest happenings in the anti-fascist world. Each column features a roundup of news, actions, doxxes and current calls to action.

It's Going Down
@igd_news @andrea I'm not criticizing the message, nor am I disagreeing with that. But the hallmark of fascism is a conspiracy between industry/corporations and the government.
@clipperchip @igd_news @andrea It also attempts to find an enemy to rile people up. The "well actually" messaging on a definition of fascism isn't particularly useful for the fight against those eager to destroy us.

@YourAnonNews @igd_news @andrea I don't think it's in any way helpful to dilute the meaning of words to the point that they lose all meaning. Pretty much anything that only slightly goes against the leftist narrative is called "fascist" nowadays. But do it your own way and watch society divide more and more because people will not be able to understand each other anymore.

@clipperchip @igd_news @andrea Calling out the people moving to set up and destroy various others as "fascists" is hardly diluting the meaning.
@YourAnonNews @igd_news @andrea Calling them out is fine, but using words to do so where you redefine the meaning in a way it suits you is not.
@YourAnonNews @igd_news @andrea Homophobia != Fascism. They are completely different concepts.
The Strange, Strange Story of the Gay Fascists

This is a taboo topic for a gay left-wing man like me to touch, but there has always been a weird, disproportionate overlap between homosexuality and fascism. Take a deep breath; here goes.

@clipperchip @igd_news @andrea Antisemitism doesn't = fascism either. Connect the dots and try being less condescending.
@YourAnonNews @igd_news @andrea They are not the same either, indeed. You can call me condescending, but that's not my my motivation here. Btw, you'll be quickly called an anti-semitist if you sympathise with Palestina. Guess that makes those people fascists as well.
@clipperchip @igd_news @andrea Cordial reminder to just stop before you come off completely disconnected.
@clipperchip @igd_news @andrea You're thinking in terms of fascism's implementation phase. Ideologically, it boils down to the intent to create and marginalise one or more underclasses. On that score, it's a little thin but arguably still fits the definition.

@clipperchip @igd_news @andrea "can't see the forest for the trees"... the far right march towards fascism isn't just one thing.

This is part of the whole movement, and if you spend your time trying to isolate each bit, and say "this is not fascism", then you're missing the point and are effectively a useful tool for those far right fascists.

@clipperchip @igd_news not in topic maybe, but whoever made it put the three arrows as a watermark almost

@igd_news spot on . Sex ex teaches kids to report abuse. Attacking lgbtiq folks both demonises them, out of ignorant hate, and runs cover for the Scout master and the priest by teaching society a pedo is always a man wearing lipstick
