"Gender ideology" has got to be the most reactionary thing I've ever heard coming from a nominally left-wing group
File this one under Shit Reactionaries Say too, fucking hell
The Communist Party supports the right of trans people to live free from discrimination and prejudice.
'transphobic statement' 🤪
because Scotland doesn’t align with the UK
What does this mean?
The UK wanted to have a unified legal definition of 'sex'. Scotland agreed to this but later on changed this with the Gender Recognition Bill to have a different legal definition of what 'sex' is. The CPB opposes this, saying it will create 'legal chaos', basically stating that there would be differences in how it's being carried out. The UK only recognises changes in sex only when there is gender dysphoria. Scotland changes this to ensure that anyone over the age of 16 can change their sex without needing to have gender dysphoria. The CPB thinks that a 'unified' legal definition of sex would help the UK somehow?
"Legal chaos" and political differences between the nations comprising the U.K. should make any communist happy. Except for the kind who continue to support the existence of empire.
If this kind of shit were playing out with the CPUSA, you know they'd be called out en masse for being settler socialists, chauvinists and fake communists.
Leftist Infighting: A community dedicated to allowing leftists to vent their frustrations
The purpose of this community is sort of a "work out your frustrations by letting it all out" where different leftist tendencies can vent their frustrations with one another and more assertively and directly challenge one another. Hostility is allowed, but any racist, fascist, or reactionary crap wont be tolerated, nor will explicit threats.
