- Comment on Dunning-Kruger 2 weeks ago:
So “until time immemorial” means we have records up to the point we don’t any records. The suggestion is its a thing that probably predates the records
- Comment on Dunning-Kruger 2 weeks ago:
If you’re going to do a binary, X and Y chromosome doesn’t hold up due to the presence of functional XX males from an SRY gene. Its speculated most Y chromosomes started as X chromosomes in animals that have that dichotomy.
In fact a functional or non functional SRY gene is a better determinant for biological sex.
The fact is though that testerone and SRY receptors have relatively high variability and trying to socially stress people into a group of traits will create a feedback loop that is opposed to more natural courses of evolution. In fact its likely trans people - of whom there are records of going back to time immemorial - are likely an evolutionary adaptation and serve some evolutionary function to society.

Its not explicit and it is a public figure AND a current news story. Imo, it seems like poor judgement.

Anything from twitter should be suspect, especially without a date. I get your point though, I’ll note screenshot is fake.

No, but based on his actions I think its a reasonable interpretation of his thoughts.

Gotta say, couldn’t pick a less sympathetic person for the screenshot.
I think the trump HB1 visa thing has put a nail in this coffin for people in the tech industry. You have to compete with people who get paid 40% less and will be deported if they take a day off. If they made it so visas required prevailing wages and had better protections it would be less of a problem…
Not to mention programming is easily outsourced so wages heavily depend on things like relative education costs. All of which are likely to be less favorable while the country is being dismantled by an oligarch.

Sorry but this isn’t a mildly infuriating post.
- Comment on I wonder how things are going in America today... 1 month ago:
I think the atomization of society shows that its not just a desire but that independence is a social pressure. “Pull yourself up by your bootstraps” is the air we breathe. Thats why business people like musk deny they got say, emerald mine money; the social pressure to seem self reliant is far greater than the social pressure to tell the truth

Ok now where are the mods to add elon musk’s face to one of them?
- Comment on I wonder how things are going in America today... 1 month ago:
That is the mindset that got us here. Maybe it will help to double down, but the reality is we don’t know, we’re in uncharted waters
- Comment on I wonder how things are going in America today... 1 month ago:
The people who say this tend to forget that if you only take the “good things” from conservatism it ceases to be conservatism. The conservative ideology is garbage and only leads countries to a sort of destructive cannabalism.

- Comment on An independent voter explains why they chose a moronic, oligarcho-fascist demagogue over Joe Biden (c. November 2020) [Day 58] 2 months ago:
lots of people who vote for dems aren’t very leftist. The reality is that for dems to win they need to pick sides opposed to republicans on enough issues to capture a majority. 2020 Biden did that. 2024 Biden Harris did not.

It should be fineable starting at like 500 dollars + any profits and ad revenue if its not labelled
- Comment on Gimme some evidence that anyone at all in the government is pushing back on Trump with any effectiveness at all. Someone throw me a bone here. 😬 2 months ago:
I actually have more hope. Every fascist regime ultimately fell and outside of the billionaire controlled media it will be difficult to burn the records.
The reality is that a two tiered justice system will always create a group of people who feel emboldened. The correct response is to document these people’s crimes, and stay mad. If the opportunity to hold them accountable comes, take it.
The democrats still aren’t taking this seriously because they will be among the last to be targeted directly. Their friends are still people like Netanyanhu who flout a similar multi tiered justice system.
Work toward building local governments who will push back and provide resources for people who need it.
