People used to say animals were not concious.

Recent science suggest that some animals have what humans would consider to be language. This is a slippery slipe.

I am intrigued by this “blame the British” angle. I reflexively approve and agree.

I switched to Mac in 2010 and then to Linux recently. :)

I also think this is a strange thing for Europeans to ask. Their world leaders keep capitulating to Trump and getting photographed with him having sit-down negotiations and going to lunch and shit like that. They have their own military and their own world leaders and won’t stand up to him, yet they expect civillians with no military training to do so? We can’t do anything.

No.

Puberty blockers are a compromise.

Ideally, according to the trans community, teenage trans people should be allowed to take cross sex hormones alongside their own natural puberty. I’m not saying this is my own personal opinion, I don’t know enough about it, but as someone who once lived in an area highly populated by trans people, this is what a lot of drag queens and trans people who live in this parallell culture seem to believe.

I can see why they say this, even though I haven’t researched it enough to form my own opinion. As far as I know, puberty blockers exist to stall puberty so that the child can have time to change their mind if they want, because hormones have a more perminant effect either way.

“Wait and see if they change their mind” is something that you’d say if you didn’t actually believe what someone was saying about themselves. Taking cross sex hormones should inhibit a lot of secondary sex characteristics from the other puberty anyway so I’m not sure why puberty blockers are needed unless the adults just don’t believe them.

Except none of those shooters have been trans. I looked into it, and I found a youtube channel which does deep-dives on mass killers. For example the Texas shooter, was a girl child on the cusp of functionality, they describe homosexual feelings in their journal, and express fantasies about crossdressing or an alternative identity, maybe some gender questioning, I wouldn’t say they had the language to definitively say either way. Honestly sounded like a confused horny young person with nebulous gay feelings. Either way, that’s not why they did mass murder. They were a mentally ill young person who started using Discord, and then got groomed by the police or the CIA into murdering a bunch of people in cold blood (I added this part, ‘we’ don’t offically know who groomer her, this is just obviously what happened because the cops just hung back and let her kill everybody). As far as I know they weren’t involved in the trans community.

Well, I can’t tell you how to feel, but doing genocide on trans people too.

Puberty blockers were not advocated for by the community either.

Trans people in the 80s and 90s would recommend runaways who joined their community to take sex hormones. They did not recommend surgery or puberty blockers to children or teens, ever.

The modern trans community has been medicalized. The medical community recommends puberty blockers to minors, which the trans street community does not recommend. No one recommends surgery to minors, although it is sometimes allowed with teenagers over 16 in some rare cases, it is not “recommended.”

Yeah I thought that police maybe needed reform, I didn’t realize that they were literally just doing all of the crime.

They also groom kids on discord to do school shootings and then hang back on the stoop on the school to let them do it.

Unfortunately I’ve heard statements like this before.

Yeah that’s how you know he killed her on purpose

It’s so strange to me, the people that the public will hold accountable and the people who get a pass

Sometimes if I’m facing the wrong way in line at the grocery store or if I get randomly distracted by something, an old person or a woman will accost me, literally screaming and crying, complete with snot bubbles, because I’ve made some kind of basic and understandable error. I pressed the wrong button, I didn’t see someone in line so I cut in front of them, I forgot to hold the elevator door.

This guy shoots his daughter and people are saying ridiculous shit, assuming that he’s stupid or assuming that he’s going to snap out of it one day. He can’t just be a murderer. People are frothing at the mouth to make excuses for people like this.

This is exactly correct. There is very little chance that this wasn’t intentional, premeditated murder. This guy intentionally killed his daughter, he planned it, I believe he brought her into the room for that purpose and he knew what he was going to do.

Non-Americans seem to be really struggling to understand our country. They keep expecting us to be able to “do something” about Trump. They’re acting like he’s a normal president that we willingly elected. Half of them are expecting American peasents to defeat our military using only muskets, and the other half expects the GOP to be moved by strongly worded letters. Whenever something like this happens in America, whenever a father kills a daughter in cold blood due to some honor-related reason, there are always comments from foreigners talking about “he’s gonna feel bad when he realizes he commited murder.” You guys, he knows he committed murder. It was premeditated murder.

I have no idea what you’re talking about, my countrymen have been treating me like shit for most of my life.

Statments like this are so baffling because I can’t tell if you’re being sarcastic.

This is exactly what I keep saying in my day to day life and people literally tell me I’m insane.

It will become harder and harder for the average person to procure money at all, and not having money will become a crime. We’re just going back to chattel slavery, and the ruling class is exploiting the hatred of homeless people that they cultivated in order to manufacture consent.

Recently saw a kid with a tablet glued to their pram so they couldn’t look away. Without the ability to study the faces of adults in real time, this child may develop an intellectual disability.

Actually yeah, the websites are usually up to date for big companies and government agencies. If I can’t find something on the website, it’s a pain to contact someone though, and when I finally get through the bots, I have to listen to the human customer service agent remind me to check the website. :(

It would be so funny if this ended with Nvidia getting robbed.

Write a strongly worded letter, and then tell your nonspeaking autistic manservant that you want to become a superhero. You can pretend to be a cowardly dandy and your assistant can pretend to be deaf with an intellectual disability.
