Reminder: 10 years ago, actual Jewish survivors of the actual literal Holocaust specifically referred to Israel's policies in Palestine as an "ongoing genocide." In case anybody tries to gaslight you that calling it that is somehow anti-Semitic or insulting to Holocaust survivors.

There's a subset of people here that are really aggressive at telling everyone (rudely) that they are breaking some unwritten rule of etiquette. My rule of etiquette is if you don't have the decency to be decent to someone you don't even know, why would I want to know you?
I don't advocate using private messages here for sensitive stuff, but you're always more effective convincing someone of your thinking if you confront them privately first.
tl;dr I don't have any patience for being told what to do, and will block or mute you indefinitely if you do this to me.

"Sometimes people use “respect” to mean “treating someone like a person” and sometimes they use “respect” to mean “treating someone like an authority”
and sometimes people who are used to being treated like an authority say “if you won’t respect me I won’t respect you” and they mean “if you won’t treat me like an authority I won’t treat you like a person”
and they think they’re being fair but they aren’t, and it’s not okay."

here is their plan:
1: remove porn from the internet, via payment processors and "protect children" legislation
2: define anything LGBT, even a rainbow sticker, as "porn"
3: censor all LGBT content from the internet as "porn"
which leads to step 4:
4: eliminate LGBT people from real life
they did this already, in russia. talk to a gay person in russia if you can. theyre fucking terrified. they get taken away to "research centers" in the middle of the night. you dont hear much about it. theres an ongoing queer purge in russia, driven by US evangelicals, who are bringing what they learned here.

We're the only species who must pay to exist.
In a private property system where all the land was claimed by others before we were born, and all we need to stay alive costs money, unconditional basic income is a basic 👏 human 👏 right 👏 to the resources we all need to exist.

@gdinwiddie although I agree with basic income should be a basic human right, I do not agree with
“we are the only species who must pay to exist”
Every single species on the planet pays a price for their survival. They pay with their lives, food scarcity, predators, you name it!
We build security around ourselves in the form of societies, which in turn lead to all the complexities we have no real idea how to navigate.

UK Slashes Recognition of Foreign Gender Corrections
Kemi made her plan clear — anywhere offering “self-id” was going to be purged from the approved list. A statutory instrument to do that was introduced 6th December 2023. It was passed…rya.nc

The UK has approved the updated list of countries/territories they'll recognize legal gender corrections from.
They've purged pretty much anywhere that has self-id.
It's still possible to apply for a Gender Recognition Certificate under the old list for "21 days", but I am not sure when that clock starts/started.
Nobody has even been accused of abusing the process, the change to the list was spearheaded by Kemi Badenoch for the sole purpose of hurting transgender people.

“This might be my last video. We’re now besieged inside al-Shifa Hospital. We’re being heavily shot at. The occupation suddenly raided the hospital and its vicinity. As you can hear now, there are intense clashes in the vicinity of al-Shifa Hospital. We’re hearing sounds coming from the gate. There are shrapnels falling over the hospital’s yard.”

They're still shooting at Palestinians who are just trying to get bags of flour. It isn't just a one-off occurrence. People in the North of Gaza are starving, and when aid comes, they're killed for trying to get flour to feed their families.

Something I find interesting and perhaps telling about people who run in yiffy circles and people who complain about them, the people in the yiffy circles are almost always very affectionate and open in far more ways than just sex, while the people who always complain about them misrepresent them as being monomaniacal about sex...
I think the people in the yiffy circles are just open about things in general, and the people who don't like them are just judgemental.
I wouldn't normally turn to British Vogue for a strident defence of Diane Abbott, but...
''none of this parliamentary rhetoric about extremism & MP safety has been mobilised to protect Diane Abbott after the Conservative’s biggest donor said he wanted to shoot her. Quite the opposite; the system has moved to shield Frank Hester, a poor man who made a little mistake & needs to be given grace and compassion'!

Misuse Case
in reply to Scott Santens • • •There is an argument I’ve heard against UBI that if we had it, landlords etc. would raise all their prices.
However this seems to me like a version of “we can’t give the poors nice things,” but from the left.
