I am very sorry for your dad. My parents praised Uganda's and Russia's policies towards LGBT people, so I kinda relate
my parents really hate the lgbtq+ like any "good" christian family. they really love shit against them, and the news goes all in on just showing crossdressers and laughing at them because "LOOK THIS IS A MAN AND THINKS IS WOMAN !!! LAUGH NOW WE ARE OF CULUTRE AND TRADITION THEY ARE SCUM KILL THEM ALL". it disgusts me and i am powerless against this shit because anything i say will be discarded
i can't do shit in general, anything i say in the left side kind of works but not really.
my parents say they loved the time when they lived in communism but somehow their memories are covered in iron guard propaganda. shit like "communism would kill gay people so i love it" and "death to romani people" are their favorites. one time my dad kept telling me about "HEY KID, STALIN SAID "IT DOES NOT MATTER WHO DO THE VOTE AND NUMBER OF IT, BUT WHO COUNT THE VOTE" !! LOOK, WIKIPEDIA SAYS IT'S TRUE" and i kept saying "no he never fucking said that" and then he asked "then WHO ??? ha"
my only form of escape from them are the university which consists of liberals and so many far right folk that love calin georgescu and donald trump. that being said, i have no way to escape. i will just die mentally, my brain will genuinely disintegrate into fine powder
Lots of things you described are similar in my country, my parents at least have a bit of decency and don't talk about their politics all the time. I'm still very sorry for your situation and I hope it will get better
One question, do Romanians actually recognize their own participation in the holocaust?
thank you for the hug, wish i can :meow-hug: back
funnily enough, i only knew ONE person who knew... and only used that info for shock value because that person was an edgelord and shit
my dad for instance said "no we didn't gas we used trains lol silly, they were right you know, don't believe in the lies by soros" so far righters believe romania did it but because "da jooz are irredeemable and steal and make a shit ton of money" and because "the [ROMANI SLUR]s steal and have big castle house and steal and make dogshit music and manipulate the government to give them money while they have big castle house and are welfare queens kill dem al !! !!!"
if only stalin didn't stop at berlin
