  • Well speaking as a queer person I and many of my friends have had the pyramid cited to us to show why we would always be unhappy. The hierarchy is not an entirely flawed concept and in the broadest of strokes I agree with it. Which is why I only say it's overrated, not inherently wrong. The hierarchy just falls apart rather quickly for GSM folks while being taken as fact by the general population.

  • The simple answer is catfishing, but this amount of time and effort dedicated to trying and be perceived as a woman seems like unrealized gender dysphoria and internalized racism. Their own self hate manifesting as external vitriol at out trans folk isn't even remotely okay, but not unheard of.

  • Midsommar is an excellent film about exactly how this type of back-to-basics all natural anti-modern vibe can be a vehicle for fascism. I recommend going in without learning more if you haven't seen it, but there is a lot of symbolism, foreshadowing and deeper meaning in easy to miss moments.

  • On the MAGA tombstone note, it's worth rembering that while these people don't give a single fuck their empathy or truth, they DO give a fuck about cruelty and hate.

    So long as Trump encourages their bigotry nothing else, even their own well being, nothing else matters.

  • Okay so that is a wild run on sentence that was very confusing to read but I think I figured out what they were going for?

    I assume this person is saying that atrocities committed by Japan, such as Unit 731, are not as widely known as the Holocaust. Which was a specific deliberate choice by General MacArthur during the reconstruction of Japan following the dissolution of the monarchy.

    If anyone is interested (and has 2 hours to kill lol) this video was quite illuminating on the subject.

  • It was just a random fucking air raid like any other.

    It was abundantly and absolutely not. It was the first raid on the US by Japan that was intended to show the US why they shouldn't enter the war and spectacularly backfired as it became the rally point for them to enter.

  • During a meeting with Narendra Modi, the Indian prime minister’s “eyes bulged out in surprise”, the Washington Post reporters claim, when Mr Trump told him: “It’s not like you’ve got China on your border.” China and India in fact share more than 2,000 miles of common border.

    Mr Modi’s expression “shifted from shock and concern to resignation”

    Modi is all of us. Shocked at the stupidity, concerned for our well being then resigned to the fact Trump doesn't even care about either.

  • the investigation encompassed the department's evidence room and the death of a Hanceville dispatcher, 49-year-old Christopher Michael Willingham, who was found dead from a toxic drug combination at work, officials said.

    Crocker said that Willingham was given access, "like a lot of other people," to the evidence room, including on his last day at work. The dispatcher died on Aug. 23, 2024, with the cause of death determined to be the "combined toxic effects of fentanyl, gabapentin, diazepam, amphetamine, carisoprodol and methocarbamol," and the manner of death an accident, according to the state medical examiner's autopsy report.

    Eric Michael Kelso, who was a reserve officer, and his wife, Donna Reid Kelso, were charged with unlawful distribution of a controlled substance and conspiracy to unlawfully distribute a controlled substance, Crocker said. The distribution charges are not based on the distribution of anything within the evidence room, and they are "accused of distributing certain drugs to other individuals, including some of these other defendants," he said.

    Cops stealing drugs until one OD'd on the job while other officers were selling drugs to each other. It's not the most comprehensive reason to abolish the department, we all know there is systemic problems with the entire institution. But if a pig self harm is what gets the job done, I'll take it.

  • Mental illness doesn't make you a Nazi. Saying Ye is acting like this because he's off his meds is saying that those with diagnosed with bipolar or narcissism are just one step away from being a bigot. That's not true and it only furthers the stigma of those with mental health issues.

    Ye is the one choosing to be racist, that choice is on him alone.

  • I guess it depends on what sort of data is in this 100 TB data set. And if I have any other tools at my disposal to transcribe the data into new mediums or any time adjacent knowledge for things that would happen in the next year.

    If there was an accurate almanac, lunar calendar of events or current world/local history. Establishing myself as some sort of prophet, messiah or divine messenger should be possible. Once I establish that I can see the future, then I need to make a far flung prediction for my home time that "will be revealed when the time is right".

    Four important rules would needed to make it work.

    • Primarily a foundational tennat not to alter my prophecy. I am the one and only prophet that will ever exist. Of course schisms and reformations will likely occur but so long as the "orthodox" faithful preserve my original writings it should stand the test of time.
    • Secondly, depending on how my death occurs in "exactly one year", I can work that in to the cannon as being recalled to the higher plane. Especially if this time death is flashy! Hopefully something like my body being ripped apart by the time stream. Nice big event that will be remembered.
    • Thirdly, I protect my religious with good ole fashion reliable xenophobia! Whatever tools I can use to identify competing time travelers will be the sign of heretics and evil demons.
    • Finally, that my tomb is to contain both my original manuscripts that are never to be touched or altered. And importantly, exact prophecies that are supposed to be opened prior to various major world events. If I can sprinkle a good one every 20 years or so then the faith should remain strong.
  • As a trans disabled woman there are numerous ways in which threatens my ability to exist. And while that does make me angry at Trump and his supporters, I mostly view them with pity.

    The MAGA faithful are victims or well orchestrated propaganda, using just enough of legitimizes complains of our late capitalist white supremacist patriarchal society but only to blame the wrong people. I have frustration at the farmers who are now critizing Trump since they didn't think they would be hurt by his actions, but sympathy enough to understand they were tricked. I wish, hope and pray that they will leave the echo chambers that influenced them to look past his numerous severe faults and obvious corruption but logically I don't see that happening for many.

    While I am angry at all MAGA folk, the majority of which I feel were too focused on the day to day survival in our increasingly expensive world, I can understand. I believe them to both willfully ignorant and globbed to someone they didn't understand. The harm he has caused was telegrpahed clearly years, months and days ago. But hating, excluding and diminishing them only lessens the chance of them understanding the lies told to them.

  • Your daily reminder that while Ye seems out of control and potentially mentally ill. That's not an excuse or explanation for being a self proclaimed nazi. To say it's just a manic episode is to say that all those clinically diagnosed with bipolar or narcissism are steps away from being bigots themselves.

    Ye is the only one making (poor) choices here.

  • Remember, when someone asks "What would Jesus do?"

    Going after all 4 cheeks is a valid response.

  • What she cites the bible for

    Though she clarified that donations wouldn’t actually go to help those infected, White used medical imagery to add urgency to her fundraising plea during a pandemic. “Every single day we are a hospital to the sick, not necessarily the physically sick,” she said. “But we are a hospital for those who are soul sick, those who are spiritually sick.” White went on to suggest that contributors offer a $91 donation, citing Psalm 91, or “maybe $9 or whatever God tells you to do.”

    What I cite the bible for

    Matthew 21:12-13 Jesus entered the temple courts and drove out all who were buying and selling there. He overturned the tables of the money changers and the benches of those selling doves. “It is written,” he said to them, “‘My house will be called a house of prayer,' but you are making it ‘a den of robbers.’

  • You're entirely correct, but the person you're talking to isn't ready to understand or accept what is being said. I see you all the time fighting the good fight, but I think you should move on from em.

  • I do not refute that gender affirming care does lead to better outcomes. I said that no one under 18 should be receiving hormonal treatment to treat gender dysphoria

    Please actually read the links. It very clearly leads to better outcomes for minors.
