Hey, so my friend wanted to sign up for Hexbear, but after failing the Captcha once they've been rate limited for a while now. They're using Chrome. Is there are any kind of solution you would recommend?

To give a bit more detail, I've been attempting to bridge the gap (however wide or short it may be) between Queer Theory and Marxism. I feel as though the two most common views of contemporary Marxists on queer theory are incorrect.

1. Reactionaries who proclaim that Queer Theory is somehow monolithically idealist, usually having never read a shred of it, should be dismissed out of hand. No need to elaborate further on this.
2. We should be critical of those who simply combine Marxism and Queer Theory (whichever tendencies of both they most align with) like toppings on a sandwich. Queer Marxism is something that needs to be developed, yet it requires more than upholding both as distinct yet compatible entities. We must synthesize them, likely transforming both to some degree in the process.

I don't wish to fall into the trap of naïve originality, aka writing theory on a matter without studying that which has already been written. So, I'm looking for two things. Firstly, any freely accessible (I don't have the funds to buy/subscribe) theory on the question of Queer Marxism. Secondly, your personal thoughts (Brief or lengthy as they may be) on the subject.

Thanks in advance, –Zero

it's amazing to see how any group of people can at once claim to stand for international proletarian revolution, support a "two-state" solution (aka liberal zionism) and proclaim that colonialism has brought us closer to socialism, responding to any critique of their eurocentric, historically-inapplicable claims with accusations of 'moralism'

yeah, i need to get off twitter

from an israeli propaganda film (what is it with zionists and cartoonish queerphobia?)

no joke, i've had folks tell me they think disco elysium is just "making fun of all sides" and "pointing out the stupidity of politics".

It's so sad
