Veganism is the way forward and we cannot ignore the enslavement, rape, torture and killing of other species for our own pleasure. I think many marxists are flawed when it comes to this.

Also, to whom it may concern. You are not a bear. Nor a chimp. Nor a lion. You are not forced at gunpoint to eat meat or animal products. You are a human being. We can have a perfectly healthy diet without it. Eating animal products is a choice. Exploiting other species is a choice.

There’s a discussion going on on the Dutch football subreddit about a non binary person playing with a women’s team. The team won a match after which their opponent filed a complaint.

I again had some discussion with some nerds who immediately went that trans women should not belong in women’s sport with the standard arguments, you know the drill.

The best were the comments from redditors saying they (the NB person) shouldn’t be allowed because they might feel like an NB, but biologically they are still a man.

Which brings me to the best part: the person was born a female, wanted to transition to male and then found out they were non binary instead. So, there is absolutely no advantage for them. But Redditors won’t even read an article which clearly stated this and instead give their expert advice anyway.

I didn’t want to put on my tinfoil hat and go all conspiracy theory on this but I was thinking the same

Well, regardless of what you think of their politics, that’s a huge loss for a country with the position Iran is in right now. I hope they manage to keep calm and prevent foreign shit starting.

Km or miles? Either way can be intimidating, but I’m sure you’re going to make it 💪🏼

Just got my plan for my marathon in October and it is intimidating lol

Here you go

Juche maybe but I am a bit offended by the Hoxha claim. We did not ban Winsconscom 438 times to be called Hoxhaists.

Gender is a social construct often upheld by patriarchal societal standards. The being of a man or a woman comes with many societal expectations, and quite a lot of people don’t agree with that. Some people go as far as to not even agree with the body they are born with. Non-binary people, for example, don’t feel like they can express themselves by being merely ‘man’ or ‘woman’ and in fact chose to be none of the two or equally both. Transgender people don’t agree with the gender they were born is as it does not coincide with the gender they feel like.

Now, I only want to comment on the gender aspect as I am sure that you, master observer that you are, can acknowledge stuff like intersex people existing, who are born with both sets of genitals for example.

Now, gender as we know it now has evolved in capitalist societies. For thousands of years the human concept of gender has been very different throughout the ages. Non binary people, for example, have been around since the beginning of mankind and have even been acknowledged by historic societies. The concept of ‘man’ and ‘woman’ is made up and should be seen as seperate from sex. Hence why some people come to the conclusion that they don’t fit in with either gender, and sometimes even that their body doesn’t match with who they see themselves as.

You comparing gender identity with someone dying and claiming to see God is a bit weird as it seems to imply that you think gender and gender expression to be somewhat of a delusion. It is not a delusion. It is not the same as someone suffering from, let’s say, schizophrenia seeing entities that are not real.

Lastly, what is your society you speak of? Is it Vietnamese? As there are a lot of transgender or genderqueer Vietnamese people. They will have their own struggle against the status quo perceived notion of gender in Vietnam, just like the LGBTQ+ communities have done in the west for example.

It means they visited an ML instance and got mad it is filled with MLs

Bye then lmao

I a completely unexpected (not) turn of events some anarchist group claimed the destruction of some shit at Amsterdam University. Because that’s how you achieve thing. Smashing screens and stuff.

I once saw an interesting video made by people in the Shanghai LGBTQ+ scene. I haven’t been able to find it since but I hope someone knows which video I mean.

He was sort of anti NATO. At least very critical of sending more aid to Ukraine.

Oops yeah wrong country

Mostly stuff on how to create an insect friendly Urban Garden (balcony in my case). I finally have the space to do so.

No problem. I am also tired so I think my brain didn’t fully register your comment lol.

That’s just a weird take lol. People can post anything on here. I’ve deleted explicit images of minors here. Doesn’t make this site a pedohotspot. It was deleted for a reason. We don’t tolerate that.

Not really sure what you mean with the jab to Lemmygrad. The person you are replying to got downvotes and people actually countered their arguments. The OP of this post got permabanned for ban evasion and partly for his islamophobic and homophobic takes which he was already banned for. I don’t think Lemmygrad agrees with aiding with oppressors and genociders.

And, as always, if someone has a problem with a comment: please report.
