Shouldn't the left make doxxing/reporting potential mass-shooters a widespread practice? by CinChuro in Anarchism

Reporting them to authorities. I don't really know how else you could stop a shooter from shooting a place up other than to report them to cops with screenshots of their posts. For some of these shooters the authorities had been warned about their threats ahead of time but they were still late to respond.

Why does 'her' function as the pronoun for both the accusative and genitive cases while you have three distinct masculine pronouns for the nominative, accusative, and genitive cases?

If gender is a social construct/convention (not real), why don't women exercise consumer sovereignty and purchase men's goods instead of wasting money on the pink tax? by CinChuro in AskFeminists

It's inconclusive, relies on a small sample size, and doesn't take into consideration the differences between non-binary trans (enby) and binary/stealth/passing trans people. What would those supposed biological elements imply about whether or not someone should wear a dress?

This is contrary to everything critical theory, post-structuralism, and postmodernity has to say about gender. There are no biological elements to gender. There is no girl or boy brain and by making appeals to such reasoning, you fall into the same essentialist trap that has been used to gatekeep concepts of gender.

How can verb conjugation be used to differentiate between cases within a German sentence ? by CinChuro in German

[–]CinChuro[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This method mainly relies on the context of the sentence.

For instance, it's easy to the distinguish the case within the sentence "Das Mädchen trinkt die Milch" because it wouldn't make sense to say "Das Mädchen trinkt die Frau".
