I am asking this because I have seen some posts in this community in solidarity with North Korea. I have heard before that trans people get reassignment surgery paid for them in North Korea but I don’t know if that is true. When I tried googling it most of the stuff that came up said that North Korea was not the best for gay people and it didn’t come up with much for how trans people are treated in North Korea. If you guys have any articles or information sources about the LGBT situation in North Korea could you link them to me, it would be very appreciated.

    It hurts more to see the lack of LGBT rights be levied against Marxist-Leninists by Anarchists. People who during the American civil war sided with the confederacy. Do you know where the Marxists were then? Signing up to fight in the Union army and writing letters to Lincoln in support of equal rights for blacks. People who didn’t align with the suffrage movement in the US and England. Do you know where Marxists were then? Setting up women’s movements, and using their male privilege to legitimize female voices. Shit, Marxists in the US have been at the forefront of every social movement, including the fight for LGBTQIA+ rights. But no, us “tankies” apparently hate the gays:registered: because they didn’t have rights in a state that died before some (if not most) of us were born.
