"Suck Cock to Beat the Draft"

During the Vietnam War, the Gay Liberation Front raised slogans such as "Suck Cock to Beat the Draft." Nowadays, such a liberationist perspective is a marginalized one in the GLBTQ communities, and the dominant demand regarding the armed forces is an equal right to serve. A perfectly legitimate demand in terms of liberalism, one crucial for attainment of full citizenship, but one that is hard to reconcile with anti-imperialist politics, let alone socialist politics, for the USA is an empire, especially since it is currently at war.
