    A workers’ revolution will not succeed in liberating the working class and building a classless society anyway if it can’t even identify and fight capitalist division strategies in their own lines. Any communist party that’s successful necessarily unites the entire proletariat, and if they don’t, they’re not successful (for long). Of course a communist party needs to analyse everything correctly, and that includes things like queer issues, but that applies to all topics including others like national liberation or the women’s question. You don’t need a specific queerfeminist communist party as opposed to a normal communist party in order to solve LGBTQ issues. A good communist party has a correct program.

    Queerfeminism itself is a very specific ideology that is decidedly liberal and idealistic. It’s like Marxism a certain school of thought, not a general set of values. Queer liberation plus feminism does not equal queerfeminism. It’s a term that means a specific ideology spearheaded among others by Judith Butler.
