interesting thing about reactionaries is they all like to disavow where women's and lgbtq liberation come from. those from the west say it comes from "foreign barbarians", those from elsewhere say it comes from the "decadent west." but mostly this is an anticommunist dogwhistle https://twitter.com/ADXUltra/status/1344302714461671424

(it actually comes--like everything else in culture--from changes in the mode of production & our relationship to it. it emerges organically from class contradictions. that the communists were the first to actually understand this and organize around it freaks these guys out)

obv these guys' weird sexual panic indicates a feeling of inferiority and humuliation. it's massive cope. but the deeper panic is over being displaced in the class hierarchy as expressed by social relations of gender and race. I think the terf panic falls along the same line
