And yet, the Supreme Court in the UK claims that trans people shouldn’t be afforded the same gender-based discrimination protections as their cis counterparts.
Discrimination is a social artifact, based on performed gender, not biological sex (whatever that means), as evidenced here.

I have a Pixel, so I have considered switching to something like GrapheneOS, but historically (with other ROMs) that meant giving up on camera quality and features.

Boost has not had an update since mid 2024. I think it’s abandonware.
I managed to clear it by going to the tab left of messages tab and clicking clear all.
- Comment on Sam Bankman-Fried is angling for a pardon from Trump 2 months ago:
I disagree. Most of the people Trump has pardoned, helped or gotten along with are libertarians.
They’re millionaires / billionaires who hate taxation and regulations because it gets in the way of their ruthless means of making money.
Trump is more than happy to help them to do that. He runs the government like a quid-pro-quo crime syndicate where you can buy yourself favours, including getting out of jail.
His authoritarianism only targets the poor; whatever scapegoat-du-jour the far-right hate today (trans, LGBT, minorities, immigrants); and anyone that tries to protect them.
He needs votes to stay in power, and since he can’t appeal to the left because everything he does is diametrically opposed with them (regulation, social spending, taxation of the rich) he has to pander to the far-right to keep a majority. Even if he is likely more right than far-right himself.
- Comment on Sam Bankman-Fried is angling for a pardon from Trump 2 months ago:
The requirements to get pardoned under the current administration are:
- Be white
- Be rich or high profile
- Be generally aligned with the right
- Claim your incarceration was politically motivated (it almost never is)
Your crime does not matter. Trump will accuse foreign refugees of being drug dealers and violent criminals, then pardon drug dealers and violent criminals if they were white and high profile enough (Google Ross Ulbricht as an example).

Oh, me! Me!
The signs were pretty clear so I take no credit though.
- Comment on Trump suggests the US taking over Gaza, kicking out all remaining Palestinians 2 months ago:
You are technically right, it likely falls under ethnic cleansing rather than genocide, as I understand it.

Still incredibly illegal though.

Fair enough, I guess.

While I agree with the sentiment, why are you posting this on a shitpost community?

This should be obvious, but even children will invent basic language. You only need to look as far as the deaf community for that, that always came up with pidgin languages even as they were forced to try and learn spoken language.
There’s an interesting free short documentary here: www.bslzone.co.uk/watch/history-deaf-education-1
