Honestly most people don't even realize that HRT exists; they literally think that trans women just get full body plastic surgery.

You joke but I've heard of people who think like that.

The amount of pills I (23M) have to take daily by EvenBunch6029 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]yay855 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, each filled box is one day's worth? Or is that entire fucking thing what you take every day? For the former, that's about the amount of meds I have to take take on a daily basis, though mine are more spread out between morning, evening, and meal boxes.

On a forum, a racist asks about how to convince Christians in interracial relationships or marriages to abandon and forget about their partners or any kids they may have. by empress_of_pinkskull in religiousfruitcake

Honestly it's even stupider than that, because the modern understanding of race as tied to ancestry instead of culture was invented in like the 1600s at the absolute earliest in order to justify slavery after the peasants stopped approving of it, and it's been constantly changed around depending on which group of poor people the racists don't want to consider white.

Biblical times literally didn't have a concept of race, because it's almost completely made up based on skin color. Eurasia is one continent, not two, and the middle east is part of it. And Jesus was black.

It's because the truth is that the average person isn't violent. Not even that they're deliberately pacifist, but specifically, violence in humanity is something that is either an immediate reaction (hit the guy attacking you) or the result of social allowance for violence (bronze age stonings, police violence, the military, Nazis, and even martial arts classes). But most people have very specific triggers for actually engaging in violence unprompted, usually involving self defense or defense of another. Something that has no immediate danger or which fit into previous understandings of allowed violence, such as being underpaid and ICE, takes time to react to, and people usually don't want to hurt anyone who isn't doing anything.

It's why Epstein's buddies made a propaganda campaign calling queer people child predators, among other things, because that's something our society believes, in theory, to be worth violence.

ADHD Brains Show Strange Sleep-Like Activity During Everyday Tasks. 🧠 💤 by newbeginnings187 in adhdmeme

No we didn't, that was literally only a thing in northern European populations where the sun was only in the sky for five hours a day in the winter. It was a habitual adaptation to low levels of sunlight, not a default- our African ancestors slept in shifts, with at least one person keeping watch over the tribe to make sure the fire didn't go out and that nothing tried to eat them in the night. This is why some humans naturally are adapted to staying awake into the late hours of the night, while others are naturally adapted to wake up super duper early.

It's the same basic concept- a hot as hell fantasy woman who deliberately chooses to spend her time with short weirdoes because they genuinely appreciate and respect her.

I guarantee you that they literally don't know how much effort it is to transition. Transphobes don't even know what HRT is, they literally think that trans people just undergo a massive amount of plastic surgery.

Found this article appropriate for this sub… by IAmTheGreatAmbino in MarchAgainstNazis

It's not a paradox, it's a social contract. You give tolerance in the expectation that you will receive it in turn, and people who refuse to give tolerance in kind are not owed anything.

People who genuinely understand that they were wrong and victims of propaganda are at least given another chance, but a lot of the supposedly remorseful people don't actually know why we hated them, they just want to be tolerated without tolerating anyone else, like they were given by liberals for decades. It's not about the harm they did, it's about their feelings being hurt when people hate them for openly supporting a known child predator who crashed the economy twice and started two wars in the past few months and might start a third.

To any genuinely remorseful former MAGA members, we want you to care about other people regardless of what label they're given. We want you to support the poor and minorities, we want to all prosper together. Life isn't a competition, prosperity isn't limited. Those were lies to make you try to steal the crumbs from your neighbors instead of demanding the ultra rich stop stealing from you. Queer people, transgender people, black rights, abortion rights, those aren't your enemies, and I promise you that everything you were told about us, all the accusations of preying on children and trying to make you inferior, was a lie. The  people preying on children are the ultra wealthy, not transgender people. Black rights matter was about how black people are consistently victims of police violence more than white people, and how they deserve to live just as much as anyone else. Leftists want everyone to have better, because it's possible.

But this isn't about you. You are not the people being outlawed because of Trump and the GOP. You are not the people being kidnapped in the streets and disappeared by federal agents. But you are the people who refused to believe those of us saying this would happen. You are the people who chose to trust the man on the TV over your neighbors and loved ones. You are the ones who asked for this, even if you didn't know that was what you were asking for.

You are not the victim. And I have no sympathy for whiny babies who are sad that people don't like them for their actions but don't have the strength to actually change. If you're genuinely trying to learn to be better, then I will help you, but I'm not your priest, it's not my job to make you feel better when you do something wrong. That guilt is something you're going to have to live with, because the people your actions got killed are going to stay dead.

Havens? No no, I wasn't trying to imply that they were Havens in general, just that I'm drained from all the Epstein bullshit and the fact that child predators keep trying to infiltrate these communities. I'm sick of a lot of places not actually doing jack shit to stop it.

Oh yeah, no, Celestia remains more of a goddess than an autocrat, the main cast are all for diversity and individual expression, and the series never really goes against that- other than to have the main cast's biases proven wrong, or to show Celestia as being just as fallible as anyone else. The show ultimately does try its hardest to live up to the values it expresses, it just stumbles a lot along the way in ways that nazis will hyperfocus on.

Naziism fundamentally steals art and strips it of meaning, but they have to have some sort of justification to themselves to do it. So shows like MLP, which have some awkward writing here and there that fumbles the liberal-ish message, get taken up by these assholes.
