The problem is that it’s not a political issue. It’s human rights. So something like this isn’t a ‘ohh but atleast they have good analyses’, it’s a yes or no solely depending on this question. When I go to see if I support something, the first thing I do is search ‘X organisation lgbtq rights’ because I can’t support something if it doesn’t support my right to live life safely and normally.
But this is just for me, you can think what you think.
I try to keep in mind that Mao allied with the Kuomintang even after they’d conducted a war of extermination against the communists. It was worth it to chase out the Japanese and achieve national liberation. The CPGB is of course hardly as bad as the Kuomintang despite their regressive gender views, but it’s a good reminder of the importance of tactical alliances.

Something an impressive amount of ultras seem to forget.
