How are you all doing?
Not great, dear American comrade. It's been a while since I've been so full of anger and helplessness towards the imperialist regime, it's hard to keep in mind that not all of the people in the core are evil.
No, they aren't.
In my trans group therapy session, everyone was condemning the kidnapping of Maduro and the United States.
Anecdotally, here in the belly of the beast those I've spoken with have condemned the empire's aggression. Opinions are split on Maduro, but this isn't a repeat of US support for Iraq, it's closer to popular public response to the post-Al Aqsa Flood view of Palestinian genocide. The historic unshakeable faith in the empire as a necessary evil is eroding rapidly, though of course there are countless fash supporting it still.
I have noticed this too.
As good as being a part of a Petite Bourgeois family can be. Not to mention that it is a Latino family, so the reaction is ten fold than normal.
I am also Latina.
Are they quite reactionary? I'm thinking it's just the specific conditions of my family being Labor Aristocrats or Petite Bourgeoisie leading to such reaction, and not any sort of culture or ethnicity. It's just so disappointing. They're extremely individualist, and believe fully in the "American Dream"- to such an extent that, when I make a joke about it (i.e: "You gotta be asleep to believe it", etc), they get provoked.
They are either liberal or fascist. One of them is white-passing and believes in race science.
Oof, that is terrible. Mine are definitely reactionary, but not to such an extent- the most being their belief in racial stereotypes, I guess. My heart goes out to you, it cannot be easy to stand them, knowing that.
Thank you!
BTW, are you on Twitter? You seem familiar.
I know how it feels to be a part of a reactionary Hispanic family, so do not feel as if you're alone in this type of situation. No, haven't been on Twitter in a few years and definitely not on this name. Sorry for the late reply, lol.
fucking horrible but thank you for asking anyways
ofc
