It's actually about deregulating biotech and medical technology. So they can run experiments on their wage slaves and figure out how to outlive the rest of us.
Instead of scrolling down and seeing your response, I posted the same web page.
Cyberpunk future. That's what they want. Corporate feudalism. Unregulated biotech and medical research. So they can outlive the rest of us. While we all become their wage slaves.
It's a conspiracy, to destroy government regulations and set up corporate sovereignty. I.e. corporate feudalism, tech fascism, and a cyberpunk future. For those of us that survive anyway.
They're already present in several countries. The Network State.
I started a transitioning over the summer and I have lost 15 lb. Considering I had such a low BMI to begin with, I'm sure most of it is muscle.
I replied to the above comment. Just letting you know if you want to take a look at what I had to say.
Read *Who's Afraid of Gender? *
The jest of it is that sometimes cis women have more testosterone than cis men. Even in top athletes.
And trans women on hrt have less than either.
I started transitioning over the summer, I've lost 15 lb of muscle mass.
Three decades of testosterone dominance made me tall and lanky. But no taller or more lanky than cis women I know. About the only major difference, as far as sports are concerned, would be my wider shoulders. And still needing to wear a cup I guess.
And comments like you post, that are just parroting the Democrats platform of blaming their voter base, when they don’t know how to inspire that base… it’s getting old. And judging by all the downvotes on your comments, I guess it’s getting old for a lot of other people too.
All right you can spend the next 4 years blaming the left.
In the meantime I'm just going to remind you that in 2016 a populist left-wing candidate ran a very good primary without any corporate donations. Leftist policies and platforms are popular. And giving people the choice between center right and far-right doesn't motivate voters.
Politicians don’t cater to groups that don’t vote.
Nah, they just cater to their corporate donors and folks that would never vote for them. Sliding more right every year and expecting everyone to hold their nose.
And then you want to blame leftists, when this is an alt account my main is on hexbear. Most real leftists I talk to voted for Harris. Because we're not idiots.
But keep blaming us that the Democrats ran a shit campaign chasing Republican voters and corporate campaign dollars, while neglecting to get their base off the couch.
I voted for Harris. I'm scared shitless because I'm a trans woman
And I'm really fucking tired of posters on Lemmy blaming the left for not voting for more genocide and more center right politics from the Democrats.
If the Democrats want leftists to vote for them, they can start running on leftist policies and start running leftist politicians. Instead of running center right politicians on center right platforms.
They need to fire up the voters so that people want to vote for them. Instead their whole game is be scared if we lose. And blame voters for our loss.
It doesn't inspire confidence and neither has the last two months since the election.

Wasn't it also Martin Luther King Jr Day?
Spreading hateful information about a vulnerable group leads directly to violence against them.
I think you are minimizing the damage this person is doing to vulnerable populations.
Feeling awkward around trans folks is a little transphobia.
Making claims that trans folks are grooming children is Nazi shit.
They definitely feed on each other.
TIL there is a notable correlation between autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and gender dysphoria (GD).
And that's not what the article says. It says that there is a correlation between the two.
I'm trans and not autistic. But I do see that correlation in a number of my trans and autistic peers. Up thread there were some very good comments on why this might be from posters that I assume are both trans and autistic.
And profit is based on the idea that I deserve more than other people do. Again hubris.
I've been meditating on this stuff and studying Buddhism for almost a decade. Pride is the root of a lot of dysfunction in our species.
And greed is based in hubris. Thinking that the individual is better than everyone else and needs more than others do.
Pride / hubris is the root of a lot of dysfunction. Greed is one of its daughters.

Well that's what Trump is trying to do so.
I guess you and the fascist are getting your wish.
Seriously though, gender is older than Homo sapiens. It's about division of reproductive labor and the classes that humans form around that
The gender binary needs to go. Gender inequality needs to go. But people are going to have gender as long as we have class distinctions and we are a long way from outgrowing that.

Yes, I literally feel the pain of others. Not as though it happened to me but enough to wince if I see most animals get hurt (aside from insects).
I'm more sensitive than normal though. Hyper-awareness from abuse. It's also isolating and lonely, even though I'm not on the spectrum.
