If you are transgender or enby and fly the Soviet Flag and stan people like Stalin you are a special kind of stupid. We're talking about a regime that would label your existence as 'bourgeois degeneracy'. It's disgusting because it's a regime that would send you to a horrid mental institute at best and kill you at worst.
Being a trans or enby Tankie is some real "Jews for Hitler" energy
If any anarchists in Sudan are looking for help in spreading the word, get in touch with us, and we'd be happy to help!
