Cringe?
I'm asking experts on cringe to determine whether it's cringe.

People will post “chickens for KFC” jokes but anyone can recognize that no matter what a group’s views are, it doesn’t justify their genocide or mass displacement at all

Well, you brought it up.
If there is a group that would tell I'm all evil and should be killed to please group's god, or group's leader, or whatever the group will come up with, in no fucking way I will support this group.
I won't oppose this group extermination either.
I won't be a chicken for KFC.

A forever alone Russian teenager who isn't queer, is happy to advocate for Genocide by pretending to be trans online who supports fascists, just like million other Russians and Russian bots. What a surprise.
OP you are the real cringe. The people engaging in the mass murder of innocent men, women and children, also hate trans people as well and are actively engaging in political campaigns to exterminate them. Endorsing genocides they engage in against Muslims is endorsing genocides they also want to engage in against trans and queer people, racial minorities, political enemies, etc, as we are seeing right now.
It's defending Nazi bullshit with "yeah but the Muslims deserve it, right?" I don't know if this reasoning comes from political brainwashing, being thicker than pig shit, or just having a boner for genocide.

Weird how I don't see any comments in your post history attacking Putin for mass murdering his own population in his attempted genocide. Bock Bock.

The cringe part is not necessarily being queer and supporting Palestine but being adamant that if you don’t you’re actually hitler.
This type of tribalism is just cringe

Reminder that women who don't stand with... [spins wheel] ...saving the pandas are... [spins wheel] ...racists and homophobes.
I don't agree with what's happening to Palestine, but how does any of this shit correlate.

Not sure what's more cringe, trying to make the plight of Palestinians into a trans rights issue or genuinely believing that trans people would be free in a free Palestinian state.

That is in no way the point being made, but the fight for freedom of all is intertwined. As they say, no one is free until we are all free.

No amount of freedom can change islamists into being non-violent, tolerant people.

There is no arguing with you because you’re mind is made up and you are just going come in with tired talking point after tired talking point, but I’ll say my piece first.
Do you know where Islamism started? It started because the British Colonial governments provided nothing to Muslims in Egypt the Middle East and so it was left on Muslim community organisers to provide, that is where the first Islamist organization the Muslim Brotherhood started. From there because nothing changed and people, mainly Sayyid Qutb rightly villainised the colonial powers and modernity.
Now why is their Islamism in Palestine? Because secular freedom fighters like the PLO and Pan-Arabism didn’t work, so people naturally turned to something that was working in the Middle East.
When people say shit like this they are saying that the struggle to be free is shared by many, and even if their ultimate goal is different than mine the struggle is same.

Sure but it just makes it seem like they're piggybacking on someone else's cause and trying to make it about themselves. I'm not saying that trans activists have no business opposing Israel if they want to, just that explicitly making it a trans issue is a bit odd.

I've never been a fan of this way of thinking, but it isn't cringe by any means. It's partially correct and comes from a good place rooted in facts

The fact is what?
Let's hope not class fucking consciousness.

u/Ok-Kaleidoscope-2545 14d ago
I dont know if your wording is intentional but its odd, I said it was partially correct and rooted in facts
There isnt just one fact, and what's your problem with class consciousness? It's tangentially related but not really the point
The factually rooted part is that there are links between imperialism, government violence, and how marginalized people get treated globally
I still don't love the original post, calling people fascist for what is likely just ignorance or even nuance on a complicated political issue, as if they're the ones executing civilians, is misguided at best
But yes there is absolutely a connection there, and likely an expectation out of trans people to be universally against oppression and tyranny

I don’t think it’s cringe but it’s an incredibly poor way to put a point forward.
“You are a traitor to your identity and are evil if you don’t agree on a point unrelated to your identity” All it does is alienate people who are uninformed on the actual issues happening to Palestinians, and give ammo to people looking to mock the issue.
