was the person in question from latam per chance? their claims strongly remind me of cia propaganda during operation peter pan.

though the whole "commies are gonna take away your kids" lie has been propagated by reactionaries and their sponsors as early as the russian civil war.

They were Southeast Asian, actually. The group chat was basically full of neo nazis(one of them was even a polish femboy who was unfortunately my first exposure to a lot of nazi dogwhistles) and liberals who were decent on social issues but were vehemently anti-communist, with most of us being from SEA.

hmm, i suppose that tracks too. the lie about communists kidnapping children was also spread by people such as tom a. dooley, various western missionaries, and other agents of the cia, dgse, and mi6 throughout south-east asia. reactionaries, as a rule, aren't particularly inventive and often repeat the same propaganda stories over and over.

the polish nazi femboy is unfortunately no surprise either. since the 1990s, the usual circles have devoted enormous resources to the nazification of eastern europe's youth and counterculture, including queer culture.
