About

Fully Automated Luxury Gay Space Communism is a phrase associated with far left movements on the internet. It envisions an idealistic society where gender norms have been abolished to such an extent that there is little to no difference between gay and straight, and due to automation, luxury is available to all people. Some communities substitute "queer" for "gay" as it is perceived as more inclusive. Other communities replace "Communism" with more specific ideologies such as Anarchism. The term has inspired the creation of communism-themed memes and image macros.
