3 years agoMy understanding is that interpretations that it’s about LGBTQ+ people are Western projections onto what discriminating against K-pop beauty standards means in China. The trend getting targeted is about cishet-presenting male entertainers adopting a particular style in order to appeal to a female audience.
The Soviets killed a bunch of Nazi soldiers after they were captured (fucking good) and put a lot more into their gulag system for 4-10 years where they either died or ended up reeducated. Nazi soldiers were not treated well, though said Nazis were trying to genocide all kinds of groups, including settler-colonizing Russia, and burned, raped, and pillaged their way to Stalingrad, so I’m not going to cry over them under any circumstances.
