Basically no one is "cis", because people are just born the sex they are and don't "identify" with it, or agree with all the outdated stereotypes placed on their sex. Men and women aren't a subset of their sex.

Companies make billions off free products. It shouldn't be surprising to anyone there are extremely shady things going on. Don't use a phone and pay in cash.

It's to safeguard children. They can do whatever they want as adults. And of course males should not be on teams for women, what is the point of women's sports then?

The content that exists of women and girls being raped online is absolutely horrible and terrifying. People are monsters. Why was Mastercard even allowing PH to process payments at all?

Facebook and Google are huge, global companies where their main product is free, and yet they aren't a charity. The only way to be mega-rich and offer something free is to be shady and manipulative with user's data. Exploiting pri

I only really became aware of how bad Twitter's censorship was when I became 'gender critical', as in, I believe in biological reality and don't think that male-bodied people should be in women's prisons, rape shelt

There is a video where Marsha P. Johnson literally says he is a boy. You can't 'trans' historical people, the concept is a modern one, and 'trans' isn't even well defined - some people who simply don't con

It is hardly just Tiktok policing content with an agenda. Twitter, Youtube, Reddit are particularly bad if you are conservative or have gender critical ideas. Reddit recently banned a ton of subreddits that are simply critical of the idea t

It only became obvious to me when I found out about the transgender debate, and that you aren't allowed to discuss reality. Just repeat 'transwomen are women' and anything against that is hate speech. You can't acknowled

What kind of new media can replace the value old media had? Good journalism and investigative journalism is needed for a healthy democracy and is also costly. It's almost a pillar that holds it up. What is this new media you speak of?

I played Ni no Kuni on DS and though it was beautiful it was much like any other rpg with a main focus on battles, seems strange to include it here. There is a similar genre in Western games (mostly indie) of these sorts of types of games,

That's what I've always done my entire life even before the virus - the outside is gross (basic things like knowing people use the washroom and don't wash their hands and then touch knobs you do, etc). How did you not?

Isn't journalism a pillar of democracy? The well educated professionals who deep, lengthy dives into corruption, raw data, etc. How will democracy survive if no is being paid to spends weeks, years, to go deep on a subject and citizens

Depression is more about a loss of vitality than it is about 'being sad', although it manifests with lots of negative thoughts. You can't just suddenly become more alive or have tons more energy, although drugs and therapy ca

I guess it makes sense in countries that have a authoritarian government to be able to subvert it, but in others it's hard to reason why a person should be totally able to untether themselves from meatspace and not be held culpable for

Early tech bros built the internet on the idea of everything should be free (even if at the same time they idolized billionaire CEOs) and now the idea of free is pervasive and things like journalism, a pillar of democracy is failing.
