Reply to comment by !deleted1759 in I posted a homophobic meme, and I want to publicly apologize by Fossidarity
nobody here thinks that blowing trump would be cool or empowering...
with a name like selver you must have read the dispossessed
do you remember how in that world sexual-related swearing/insults etc just didn't exist?
it's the superstructure of homophobia that makes that insult as 'effective' as it is
if you rewrote the same thing to replace the homosexual stuff, the stuff you would be replacing it with to make an effective translation would imply submissiveness and lackeyness and weakness and otherness/grossness
and so those are the implicit features of that sex in this meme's presentation, or no?
