Not when the law enforcement, establishment, and media have got your back.I mean you are whacko to live stream your potentially criminal activity.
Still horribly stupid. You never know when it will come back to bite you on the ass.Not when the law enforcement, establishment, and media have got your back.
There isn't no real loyalty on the left and the moment someone becomes inconvenient they will be thrown under the bus. Commies in particular are rather famous for stabbing each other in the back.Not when the law enforcement, establishment, and media have got your back.

Yup. This was pretty much exemplified by Stalin and Mao.communists don't have friends they have tools.
Case in point a homosexual was going to prison in the Soviet Union for being homosexual. He wrote Stalin to see if he could get the sentence commuted. I think Stalin thought it was a comedy piece.Yup. This was pretty much exemplified by Stalin and Mao.

IIRC one of the few dudes who could chat to Stalin however he pleased was Zhukov, because executing him would basically result in a red army revolt.So, basically… don’t write to Stalin ever?
Upon reflection, I now see why no one would want to, save for relatives that only associated with him because he was family and because he was the most powerful man in the Soviet Union — meaning that crossing him was the last item on any sane person’s list.
Is that a case in point? I didn't know that Russia's gay community were ever really considered particularly or specifically allied to the communist revolutionaries, so being thrown to the wolves by them hardly feels like back stabbing?Case in point a homosexual was going to prison in the Soviet Union for being homosexual.

The Communist Party abolished laws against homosexuality in 1917 and indeed used gays as allies to get into power. Once their position was cemented, they passed new anti-gay laws in 1933 and sent their former allies to the gulags.Is that a case in point?
