It’s weird since it’s just a technical term that fits the majority of people. The reason that most are unfamiliar with it is just that being transgender has been stigmatized historically and therefore not been talked about much and when you

I imagine this attitude of “even if we had laws protecting consumers they wouldn’t get used” is a big part of why Americans don’t have them. The European laws do get enforced, but of cause there is both room for and movement towards improvi

I can see what you mean. Europe should force the US to divest from Facebook and have it transferred fully to European owners.

The “But China is evil”-narrative is silly. Facebook isn’t banned in China, they just have to comply with the law in the land, just like TikTok is doing in the US. China has not forced through the sale of Facebook to a Chinese owner. Ther
