Why is the solarpunk memes community on this instance filled with such massively anti-left folks?

      Referring to sucking dick in an insulting way is a very common form of homophobia. The implication being that sucking dick is bad and shameful and is inherently insulting.

        Sure if you completely disregard context you could interpret it as homophobic, but the way they used the insult was only to imply hexbear users are submissive towards Putin to the point of performing sexual favors for him. Not saying I agree with it, just trying to clarify and point out how you’re being a bit over-zealous.

          Funny how it’s always sucking dick that is used pejoratively like that, just coincidentally of course.

                Your disagreement with @BlackDragon isn’t going to be resolved by finding better insults. It’s cringe.

                Instead of doubling down on sexually derogatory language that can easily be interpreted as homophobic and misogynist, open your receipts drawer.

                    If a ‘fash-adjacent’ person is telling you to not use homophobic language, you’re probably doing something wrong.
