“What is the socialism we have to apply here? Utopian socialism?"

“We simply have to apply scientific socialism. That is why I began by saying with complete frankness that we believe in Marxism, that we believe it is the most correct, the most scientific theory, the only truly revolutionary theory. I say that here with complete satisfaction and with complete confidence: I am a Marxist-Leninist, and I shall be a Marxist-Leninist to the end of my life.”

thhis polll is nuts to me bc in 2020 during the portland wildfires and the pre vaccine era of the pandemic, i tried to sign up for a "mutual aid n95 giveaway" list, via my twitter account, and they banned me for having an anime girl pfp (it was rakka from haibane renmei) and having a locked account (i had a job and was closeted). i messaged them like "is there any way i can appeal this?" and they said "no" because apparently my anime girl icon and locked account meant i was either "fash or a creep or both." anyway they approved my roommates so they both got n95s but didn't share them with me. because i had an anime girl icon on twitter and didn't want my boss to find out i was trans.

Even if someone is into lolicon/shotacon it does not mean they are a dangerous person or undeserving of support. it does not mean everything they do needs extreme scrutiny. And it does not mean they are evil rapists who need to be culled. We can no longer give ground to the idea that the media you watch (or even the porn you jack off to) is somehow an indicator of your propensity towards abusing anybody. We can no longer give ground to the idea that it is ok to harass, stalk, and ostracize people because they are watching an 'icky' cartoon, and that this poll is simply 'choosing it's targets wrong'

Nobody can stop you from thinking something is gross, but let's stop pretending that this is anything besides base disgust masquerading as "concern about CSA/rooting out pedophiles" like. Truly nobody who wants to "root out pedophiles" is doing anything to actually help victims of CSA, or examining the conditions that lead to CSA occurring. They are making bullshit like the poll in the screenshot. They are organizing harassment campaings and creating blogs dedicated to stalking trans women, they are getting trans women term'd and often much worse.
