  • Yeah ofc, it’s another way of funding a company and the investors want their return on investment as well. Our savings, pensions, index funds etc are also investing in these publicly traded companies and we also want whatever roi we can get.

    Governments just need to do their fucking job to prevent ani consumerism. But considering there are still a lot of people defending stupid rules and regulations (especially about anti consumer practises in the US) I doubt it will change anytime soon.

    Yes I know and it is terrible, but it is terrible either way. If you personally are trans or not. Argumenting it in a different way can help and you migt even get some transfobes to get to help you. Most trans people I know (especially the older once) here in NL, had way less issues before it became something people publicly shared. But they don’t consider themselves trans, they consider themselves of the opposite sex they where born.

    If people are giving up then there is almost no hope of fixing the country. There is no allied who can help the US because of the way the US positstioned itself in the past.

    If needed you can start the paperwork to migrate here and you might even be able to apply for help as a refuge. In NL we already can’t house own people with the influx of refugees from different parts of the world, but I gues we make it work? Idk if I where you I would try it in all different ways to get to a country where people are more accepting of each other

    It’s not fair to blame you that is true.

    But in the end this is only and issue that American’s can solve, but people outside the US will bear the consequences something a whole not of American’s are forgetting.

    Idk how you being trans is relevant to the specific situation, maybe stop using that in irrelevant context. There are a lot of people who will take your point a bit less serious. The same gues if you use other irrelevant points, like what you ate for dinner.

    Keep up the good work and keep helping to fix the mess caused by your countries citizens.

    It’s so dense and stupid to generalise everybody. It’s not like the US has more than 2 parties to vote on and the country is already having an us vs then mentality which cause people of the “other side” to disprove of anything the “other side” does. Does comprise even exist in US dictionaries?




  • Yup, but most people have savings or some kind of pension, both are often put into the stock market by the bank or pension fund to give us the interest we want.

    We need to try and exercise more of our power as stakeholder in these companies, in the end we still have the power to not use products from these massive corporations. Stop order from shit like Amazon, but go and order from smaller stores, switch search engine and browser, etc.
