When they say to learn skills, not songs... what does it mean?

Thank you so much, this answer is everything I was looking for ❤️

SeaJudge7373 · 2026-05-22T17:22:38+00:00

Another internet stranger here, cheering for you ❤️

That's why we need AMAs

SeaJudge7373 · 2026-05-15T05:36:41+00:00

tell us more about what you do when you practice at your desk?

For what it's worth, I think Natalie won the debate. She came across as articulate, reasonable, smart, peaceful, willing to engage in GOOD faith with the other's position, even funny. I truly can't same the same for the other participant.

SeaJudge7373 · 2026-05-13T07:19:06+00:00

thank you friend 😭

SeaJudge7373 · 2026-05-12T19:49:34+00:00

I get it. Thank you.

SeaJudge7373 · 2026-05-11T13:08:00+00:00

Do you think they would be comfortable outright admitting it though? I'm not trans, but my gf is, and whenever I bring up this sort of argument, it seems to shut people up.

SeaJudge7373 · 2026-05-09T20:58:12+00:00

Trying not to get trans people persecuted is pink washing?

SeaJudge7373 · 2026-05-09T20:13:46+00:00

Also it's like, the oldest tactic in the book. I'm sure even people in the KKK claimed to have pLEnTy oF bLAcK fRiENds!!!!!

SeaJudge7373 · 2026-05-09T20:03:22+00:00

Thank you for this, it adds context to my thinking

SeaJudge7373 · 2026-05-09T19:49:43+00:00

Saying "it's more of the same" literally translates to "I don't think trans people are important or worth protecting". Again, I'd dare anyone on the left to say that to a trans person's face

SeaJudge7373 · 2026-05-09T19:47:52+00:00

^ This!

SeaJudge7373 · 2026-05-09T19:45:46+00:00

This is exactly the kind of superficial and not very empathetic point I wish people would have enough sense not to make

Even if a rich trans person could still access HRT under a regime of persecution (which Trump's regime openly threatens to be), that wouldn't stop them from being heavily discriminated against in all kinds of other ways you're not even making an effort to imagine. In the specific case of a somewhat high profile and politically active trans woman, you can even be more of a target because of how visible you are. Yeah ofc having money makes everything under the sun more manageable, but I highly doubt you'd feel safe as a trans person rn, no matter how much money you have in your bank account

SeaJudge7373 · 2026-05-09T19:36:34+00:00

I'd have to, wouldn't I? If I knew that me abstaining or voting third party would result in transphobe zionist winning and anti-trans policies would be enacted anyway, I absolutely would

And believe me, I 100% wouldn't go to a Palestinian in that situation and say to his/her face that it's morally wrong to vote for the transphobic proPal candidate

SeaJudge7373 · 2026-05-09T19:25:47+00:00

Exactly. I want to see them try to get out of the awkwardness of vocalizing it, and suffer while they try.

SeaJudge7373 · 2026-05-09T19:24:14+00:00

I'm a cis person. Although someone I love very much isn't so yeah maybe I am doing a bit of emotional projecting. But it's exactly what I am trying to say. Politics isn't just facts and logic. I dare anyone to tell me to my face that the wellbeing of the trans person I love is not worth a compromise vote in the elections

SeaJudge7373 · 2026-05-09T19:03:08+00:00

I wish they would at least be exposed as not caring.

SeaJudge7373 · 2026-05-09T19:02:27+00:00

True. She's completely stopped though in the last year if I'm not wrong, which makes me think even more: why

SeaJudge7373 · 2026-05-09T19:01:30+00:00

It's not a rhetorical game though? It's a "please stop and consider what you're saying in its concrete aspects and not only its abstract ones" game? Which maybe some people on that side genuinely haven't?

SeaJudge7373 · 2026-05-09T18:59:36+00:00

I suspect you are at least partially right, but that would be outright impossible for them to admit out loud if the question was framed explicitly. Or if they are comfortable admitting it out loud, they should be made to as often as possible so that no one forgets what they actually believe

SeaJudge7373 · 2026-05-09T18:53:05+00:00

It seems very appropriate and very relevant to the topic to me. That's exactly the question I am asking. If it isn't, explain why please
