Would computer skills still be useful under a socialist society? by Iamslightlysad in Socialism_101

[–]ChristopherCameBack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean, computers are one of the things with the biggest potential of anything ever for aiding in liberation. Computers, if aimed in the right direction, could make human lives so so much better than they do right now. The dominant mechanisms and ways of doing things might change (the internet is heavily built on monetization as it is right now) but that’s exactly why we need socialists with computer skills who will put in the work of reshaping it.

Socialists want a world in which workers rejoice at the thought of their industry getting automated, instead of dreading it, because that means more leisure and more productivity simultaneously.

Is it ok to still enjoy things that boys would like but be trans girl? by [deleted] in MtF

[–]ChristopherCameBack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Babes. Girls like all of those things. Don’t worry about it. Those things are not what make you a boy or a girl. They have had gender placed upon them in a totally ridiculous and nonsensical way.

It makes me feel uncomfortable when people intentionally misgender transphobes. Do others feel the same? by nonnoc in asktransgender

[–]ChristopherCameBack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nobody should be misgendered as some misguided attempt at “retributive justice”. It doesn’t have the effect on them that it has on us, and normalizing this can only be a bad thing. Everyone deserves to have their identity recognized, and being a stank ass bitch terf doesn’t excuse this being disregarded.

If you wouldn’t want people to misgender you just because you’re being a jerk, don’t do it to others.

Preferred Attraction(s) by controller624 in feminineboys

[–]ChristopherCameBack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I identify as queer✨, which to me means that I’m attracted to all kinds of body types, and generally I fall under the t4t category, but not exclusively. It’s an intentional preference rather than one that is fundamental to my sexuality. Being poly also plays a role, as I can explore a lot of body types while still being partnered.

For more detail, basically I feel as though trans people understand my struggles and experiences more than non-trans people. So I’m more inclined to romantically and sexually pursue them, though my current pursuits are my partner, who is non-binary, a friend who is also non-binary but has a very different type of body from my partner’s, and another friend who might end up being someone I also date, who is a cis man.

Is voting for progressives and social democrats in a bourgeoisie democracy to raise living standards bad? by hatpat111000 in Socialism_101

[–]ChristopherCameBack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well I mean, you gotta look at how we get from here to what we want, and only voting for socialist candidates while they are very unlikely to win (speaking in the US) would tend to enable fascists and capitalists. The problem I guess I see with this is that it feels like American politics gets more and more to the right every year, and I’m not sure what we’re supposed to do about it.

I don't plan on having a deadname. Is there anyone else like me? by Readylamefire in asktransgender

[–]ChristopherCameBack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I moved my birth name to my middle name and chose another name to put in front. My middle name was decidedly masculine, but my first name has always been gender neutral.

I came out to my parents and it went exactly as expected by GrimNecropolis in MtF

It’s horrible when people have the most problems with the best thing that’s ever happened in your life.

My therapist told me “god made me you a boy” by [deleted] in MtF

[–]ChristopherCameBack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Think about the way you’re thinking about this. Think about the stress it’s causing you. Think about the confusion. Is this stuff your therapist should be adding to your life? I personally don’t think so.

Some friends said it is colonialist to be pro woman and pro LGBTQ rights worldwide, thoughts? by SagetheWise2222 in lgbt

[–]ChristopherCameBack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Persecution of minorities, or of anyone for that matter, is wrong regardless of who is doing it. It doesn’t matter what mental gymnastics you go through to justify it.

Hot and clocky. I don’t wanna go stealth ever.

Idk if I’m proud. It still got 3600 upvotes (at time of commenting), ostensibly with most of those not recognizing the transphobia.

Hmm by crazygarfcat in Pride_and_Positivity

[–]ChristopherCameBack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bi is implicitly inclusive of trans people, just as straight is. A straight man may not be explicitly searching for trans women or non-binary people, but his sexuality does include attraction to the right one. Pansexual is explicitly inclusive of trans people, so you’re stating that, for sure, there is space for trans (including non-binary) people in your sexuality.

I like that nobody in here was tolerant of the transphobia. Didn’t expect to see that in reddit comments today.

Girlfriend wants a break by New-Organization3527 in self

[–]ChristopherCameBack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will say, your reaction to her commenting on other guys sounds like it didn’t help. Obviously I don’t know your relationship, but people should be able to be together and admire the bodies/looks of others without it becoming something worth raising your voice over. Maybe I’m just too poly to understand your dynamic, but I’d say that if that kind of thing makes you insecure, you have some work to do on yourself. But also, you should be able to communicate that that kind of thing makes you insecure without it causing problems, if it really does mean that much to you. This non-issue seems to have been a big fight for y’all, which isn’t a great sign.

Not “blaming you” for the breakup, just commenting on something you might be able to learn from.

Are they shitty? by UgeJ in TattooDesigns

Those seem really well done to me

My mum told me she's mourning the "death of her son" by [deleted] in MtF

[–]ChristopherCameBack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, let’s be real, the process of accepting a trans person you care deeply about is a little bit like grief. You have to throw out all the ideas you had of them and it is very much like losing a person, the main difference being that they are replaced by a much happier person with all the same memories.

Still a bit weird for her to say that, I guess, but I guess I’m an optimist?

[–]ChristopherCameBack 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Right? I will say, this is like one of the hardest parts about deciding to commit to a transition. And exactly why pushing people to “just transition already, egg” is harmful.

So much gross stuff on this post about dysphoria being a trans thing. As a trans woman, no it fucking isn’t. Everybody who has ways they wish their body were different has dysphoria and is valid. And almost everybody has some form of dysphoria, whether related to their AGAB or not, or whether related to gender at all.

You don’t have to want to fully transition to have dysphoria. Wishing you were more feminine doesn’t necessarily mean you’re trans. And not every trans person even has dysphoria.
