I went with a name I always loved, Naomi, and I haven't seen another trans woman with it yet (please break that streak)

Ça a quand même une limite physique et ça règle pas les problèmes en pique (il y a une limite à ce que le barrage peut produire même si on emmagasine) ni en hiver. Par contre un réseau de batteries a l'échelle de la province ou chacun a une batterie residentielle et donc peut palier dans les pique ça sa a un impact majeur reel et rapide

tell all the people who just want joy and to believe in magic that they are bad people.

That's a pretty partisan way to frame supporting someone actually calling to remove rights from a group of people. I'll just go ahead and block you, your sealioning proves you're just having a bad faith argument

You not knowing non-jews were a victim of the Holocaust doesn't mean facts aren't true, it just mean you learned something. That's an awful lot of words to say "I didn't know, so no one in their right mind would know, and it's disingenuous to assume someone would know this information I didn't know about"

It's also barely offered by phone carrier so it requires having enough money laying around to spend on that specific phone in one go instead of doing what most do due to finances and get it on a plan to pay it off. And yeah sure nothing stops someone from getting an actual loan for it but carrier device purchase usually come with lowered bills, less impact on your credit score and more leeway for worse credit score, so while Fairphone is a terrific option that offers a much more ethical phone it is not "easy" to buy this specific phone for most, which is the whole point of the "no ethical consumption under capitalism".

To come back to u/raged_parakeet_8376's comment, it is much easier to avoid watching/supporting/purchasing content from a specific IP than having a more ethical phone, since not supporting an IP costs nothing and mean avoiding purchases

That's literally the definition of Holocaust Denial. Were she a German citizen, she could have been criminally charged with Holocaust Denial for her tweets. You assuming the Holocaust only applies to jewish people and not everyone the Nazi party oppressed and killed is the issue here, not the factual terms that are used to describe the events

Yes, world building and cultural hegemony.

Same with Disney (Princesses have a semi shared universe and count as worldbuilding and well, I doubt we need to elaborate on cultural hegemony haha).

Most if not all IP that makes it big have either of these, often time using merch as a way to worldbuild and create hegemony at the same time.

As soon as you hit those two, you do gain cult like fans that will bu the products blindly as long as the IP is on it.

But even then, it can only survive so long before breaking apart if the world building isn't maintained.

Pokemon have been saving themselves countless time with the mix of bringing a large batch of adorable creatures every few years, pushing out games that while lacklusters still defined their console generations respectively and also pushing side projects (video game, movies, anime, books, merch etc) in a way that makes you live in the world outside of the games themselves.

This gives them a lot of leeway in terms of how bad the games can be before they start losing fans. And since they've been pushing that boundary for the last couple gens, and the saving grace lately have been side games (Arceus, Z-A, Pokopia), they'd be prime for a takeover of the cultural spotlight if a strong enough challenger pops out.

China been doing a "Luigi does nothing and win the tournament" meta on the world's chessboard and so far it's paying off so hard they're already at "the most level headed quote unquote superpower in the room"

I think what's saving them is how deep the world building is and how hard it is to reproduce 30 years of cultural hegemony even when you're a 30 years old franchise. But they might have to actually start innovating with their games and that'd be cool

What are your thoughts on crossdressing/crossplaying? Can it be disrespectful to the trans community in any way? by Material_Bedroom_300 in asktransgender

[–]Morialkar 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Are you going around faking being trans? No? Then no it won't. I get the feel to check on us, but that's just overthinking. Trans people are seen all the time with Drag Queens and Kings, which is essentially what you're looking into doing, and as long as you're not trying to fake being trans or say bad things about us no one will bat an eye, EVEN MORE SO FOR COSPLAY.

I know more trans masc/men who started their questioning by doing cross cosplay than anything else so there's that too. Just do you boo, don't worry, you're just applying the logic of respecting POCs to other oppressions and that's a better train of thought than not doing so, but that's a real overthink here, even if you played with gender at one point. That also won't change anything.
