- Comment on are terfs actual feminists or do most transphobic women just call themselves that? 1 week ago:
They aren’t feminists as they impose a singular, white european centric, view of what a woman can be.
While they claim to seek feminist goals, those goal don’t extend to women of colours or from non european cultures who often don’t fit their preconceived notion of what a woman should be, notion that was built by the patriarchy and colonialism/colonialist propaganda.
This way of thinking is also where their transphobia comes from, and the transphobia is what they use as a basis to validate and justify.their racism.
See the case of Imane Khelif for an illustration of what I’m saying here.
- Comment on Isn't EU's "VAT" a regressive tax? Why do they have that, instead of something like, taxing the rich? 4 weeks ago:
Depends on what is being paid, the VAT model being used, the country etc.
For instance in France the base tva is 20%, but food and hygiene products have a special status which reduces it to 5.5%
I forgot the exact details buI if I recall correctly in Germany they have two models A and B depending on the product, forgot the percentage though. And then if you’re buying something for work the percentage can change again.
- Comment on Permabanned from Reddit? 4 weeks ago:
Literally the reason I’m here now, banned because I share my computer with someone, which triggered some “ban evasion detection”. Both of use appealed, both of us denied within hours, despite both accounts being multiple years old
