This Community has a huge transphobia issue

“And wouldn't you know that the majority of CPGB-ML's leadership is quite older and like most (but not all) older communist have some weird lines”

As I said before if Jeremy Corbyn and goddamn Bernie Sanders can hold even basic lines on trans folks, why is it so hard for “Old Communists”? Are old Communists that infinitely more reactionary than their old counter parts in Social Democratic parties.

Also CPGB-ML multiple times has called trans women men and made mocking statements on their twitter and Facebook comparing it to garbage like “identifying as a kettle” or sharing right wing memes in their paper. This isn’t some misunderstanding but a patten. Why are the social democrats and anarchists so able to police their own and yet Marxists are so inundated with people calling for looking past people taking reactionary stances to one of the most marginalised groups in society in a way comparable to then right.
