decrim for prostitution is not a socialist standpoint, is not a communist standpoint, is not a marxist standpoint, you are making a fool of yourself trying to pass gross liberalism when it comes to human rights violations, sexual slavery and extreme misogyny as revolutionary, progressive or anticapitalist like you are directly contradicting everything written by marxists (and marxist women in particular) on the matter and every policy passed by marxists, socialists and communists on the matter but i shouldnt have expected less from us americans who call themselves "leftist"

politicians on the left are shooting themselves in the foot by supporting decrim, they are alienating a large part of the female voter population (in particular among feminists) at best and they show that their pro-working class, antiracist and feminist stances donât apply to poor women and woc and are therefore meaningless at worse. like are you stupid.
i was talking to a portuguese woman who was telling me she likes the communist portuguese party but wonât join them because while they support prostituted women and oppose pimps they keep shying away from openly condemning johns. meanwhile in my country the left-wing party i am in is openly abolitionist, works a lot with abolitionist radical feminist orgs and therefore enjoys a good reputation among feminists. the benefits of actually caring about women are endless. who would have thought đ
