I looked up the name from the signature becaus eI liked this cartoon, and it turns out Lilith Kievskaya is the founder of a left wing gun club

Admittedly I have seen more “I’m a queer palestinian who suffered under sharia law and here’s why I believe Israel is good actually”. Friend of mine got 6 identical comments like this when he said something critical of Israel on reddit
all of them are named Abdul
The entity loves pinkwashing

No I called it pinkwashing because that’s what the meme is highlighting. I’ve seen this kind of stuff in various spaces too

Well that happens online, people edit memes all the time.

Had the same feeling. It doesn’t even make sense, because cis people never listen to us anyway, unless we pander to their transphobic biases
deleted by creator
It’s not about what cis people think, it’s about what’s convenient for them.
“Normal” trans person getting even just slightly upset by the shit they said to them? Inconvenient and uncomfortable for them. You’d have to rethink your transphobic biases and overcome the “icky” feeling, or, goddess behold, apologize to them.
Buck Angel type that fully agrees with all the dumb shit you say about them? Convenient and relatable. Just keep dishing out your hot takes and have fun feeling superior while the inferior life form pats you on the back, without having to fear any awkwardness whatsoever.
This is also the reason why cis people constantly complain about having to walk on eggshells around us and why they lash out so aggressively whenever we even just slightly criticise them: They only care about their comfort. Their comfort trumps all, especially our well-being. Doesn’t matter if the things we say are true, because admitting that they were wrong about us leads to them feeling awkward, and we can’t have that, right?

Why does the cis even exist?deleted by creator
but this feels off,
the text in the second panel isn’t the original text, notice how one is crusty and the other isn’t
This was altered for sure but this is also the only version I could find with a signature so it might still be from Lilith.
The earliest version I could find is this
this is the one that I’ve seen the most before and the one that I assumed was the original
Yeah I’ve seen this one before too
Font size and compression artifacts check out too
It’s edited, there was something else on the original, but I forgot what it was

I, for one, love our Russian troll comrades and respect their pronouns.

Its not good, but you do start to understand the over correction of LGBT+ rights in countries destroyed by the US. But like everything reactionary tendencies tend to do, it just makes people go after the wrong targets while not actually doing anything to enemy opposition.
On the one hand, so much LGBTQIA+ activism in countries in the global south has strictly followed a global north model and has been funded by global north orgs, implicitly accepting racist and imperialist narratives, so it is understandable people see us as a foreign imposition and yet another lever of control by Empire.
On the other, queerphobia exists not only in reaction to this. It finds a home because it is so normalized, and because it confirms many of these people’s priors. And even though I understand the reasoning behind it, it doesn’t make it any less painful that I felt I had to escape my country in big part because I couldn’t feel I could be myself there, that now that fascism is becoming rampant where I live I feel I cannot go back home because it would be even worse, and that I can’t even come out to my family without being lambasted for being brainwashed by gringos.
I’m so sorry
