Fine. Let's assume that's true.
> Convicted formerly-male rapist, now identifies as female. Which prison do they go to
With information given, it doesn't matter, but generally default to male for violent criminals.
Reason: You prioritize protecting others from violent offenders over the offender themself when push comes to shove, which is what you're forcing by framing the question in such a way.
If we modify the question slightly to remove the implication and give enough actual information to make a determination, we'd specify who the male had raped. You send them to the opposite. Unless it's both/unclear, in which case, you refer back to my default.
It's not a hard question. But the way you frame it is straight out of a fascist handbook (Throw the "paradox" of tolerance in their face while strictly framing the question in a way that does not allow for nuance), especially while trying to advocate for "shades of gray" while insisting on reducing the discussion to a binary question. It's not productive discourse.
So no, the narrative here you're pushing is not "shades of gray", it's literally binary.
- woooooo 3y agoHang on, we agree on where the prisoner should go. Obvious slam dunk case. Why am I a fascist for it and you're not? Yes I am deliberately winding you up here but maybe you're overattached to some narrative points? It comes off just like the people raving about groomers.
- Zandikar 3y ago> Why am I a fascist You still haven't picked up on the fact that I'm addressing your choice of manner to engage as a troll, not on the merit of subject at hand because I knew this wasn't about that anyway. I don't know if you're a fascist, but you're using textbook fascist tactics to very poorly try to "gotcha me" before I called you out for not engaging in this topic in good faith, which you've now admitted multiple times.
