This is so 2016-2020 era. Is Australia trying to do Woke 1.0 right now? Did they not get the new 2.0 update yet? Devs purged all of the radlib bullshit in the new release.

Let me double check the patch notes

Removed all forms of radlib identity politics. I.e. identity politics who’s purpose is to only “pink wash” the structures of capitalism, Imperialism, and patriarchy; rather than to dismantle them. This includes but is not limited to.

  • Gay bomber pilots

  • Girlboss CEOs

  • Black Police Chiefs

And can be generalized in the form

  • <individual from identity group> is appointed as <position of power meant to maintain class, racial, patriarchal structures>

Lesser forms of identity politics that may be considered unhelpful but not directly harmful may still remain.

Note: this does not purge identity as a topic of importance or discussion. This fix is strictly meant to address the complaints we received related to the identity of an individual being used as a replacement for the rights and material conditions of the entire group of said identity.

I’m out of the loop, what war crimes is she guilty of?

I consider all bourgeoisie military generals (especially of the western hemisphere) as war criminals

At first I thought it was Susan Boyle of Britan’s got Talent fame. I was impressed with her versatility.

Fixed. Interesing that 3 letters in a row can be used to start this name.

Diversity win: this war criminal in chief is a woman!

ExLisper@lemmy.curiana.net on 16 Apr 12:34 next collapse

Good for her.

She’s not a good choice. The better choice would be someone who has seen combat which would most likely be an armor or infantry unit.
