Bit of context: in 2022, there was a military coup in Burkina Faso. The new military junta took an anti-western amd pro-russian stance leading to a lot of fanboyism from online communist in reddit.
In a very unsuprising turn, the junta moved to purge the country from western influence, now that include homosexuality which is seen as a western perversion.
/r/thedeprogram is an anti-western communist sub. They're pro-russia, pro-china, anti-USA etc..
Reading through the article, it looks like it's only just been suggested by it's Justice Minister, and still needs to pass through parliament, and would then need to be approved by Traore himself.
This post should honestly be removed. If comrades don't open the comments, they will believe this misinformation like the rest of libs across Reddit.
It still unfortunately has a large Christian presence and I'm betting American Evangelicals have gained some ground in recent years.
Burkina faso is 64% muslim and 6.2% protestants but I'm sure it's the evangelicals fault.
I'm queer, they are my comrades [..] The French came, forced homophobia into every facet of their society, stopped them from socially progressing so they could take their materials, and now you're surprised they're homophobic?
I'll continue to critically support those who are resisting imperialism and trying to make a better life for the proletariat, even if they aren't perfect.
Anti-western online leftists continue to support people who would kill them or throw them in jail
Burkina Faso has been held back by the imperial core for decades and decades, they have been held back materially and socially, so they have not progressed to that point socially, yet.
Without question, criminalizing people based on their sexual orientation is unacceptable. That is absolutely a given.
But [leftie wall of text]
Basically the whole thread is cope , a lot of posters straight up say the mods should supress this information because it's liberal propaganda

When will they realise that you can't subjugate an entire country to your will by being a carbon-neutral vegan pacifist?

I kept hearing that line, but I just don't buy it. You're telling me a bunch of people who refused to learn all the Enlighten values from the West, but happily ate up the "God hates strag" thing? This sounds pretty darning for the population itself, rather than the colonial powers ruling over it.

Real communism is when you support a military junta that hates the West and is violently opposed to any dissent from inside
