with Democrats on the left
Do keep in mind the most left leaning democrat you can think of would be a center-right candidate in my country. It’s unfortunate that indeed you can only work with what you got, but don’t be surprised when others cringe at the thought of calling your democratic party leftist.
The point is that you don’t know the first thing about American politics,
You couldn’t even comprehend the point being made, misinterpreting it so fundamentally I genuinely - non-ironically - believe you struggled reading the words being written.
and are wholly unqualified to make any comments about it.
And yet, what I wrote is an aspect of democratic structures so fundamentally basic it wouldn’t even matter if the US was the target of the comment. Funny how that is.
If you honestly think a military junta would be more representative of the American people than Trump, then I don’t know what to tell you.
Good thing I never made such claim and absolutely nothing on my comment reaches that conclusion, then.
Also our president is not elected via majority (or plurality) vote.
The details about your horrendous electoral system are irrelevant to the point, which by now is very clear you didn’t understand.
You’re not doing much to fight the stereotype of americans lacking basic reading comprehension though.

What I understand about the “intention of the text” is that:
That’s probably the intention, but because it was written by somebody with zero academic biological experience that is also trying to cosplay as a professional writing a rigorous definition, it fails to do so.
XY: male. XX: female.
Would you like to hear a crazy secret? We biologists don’t use the words “gender” and “sex” separately because we feel like it, there is a major difference between the too. Want to hear something even crazier? We don’t use “XY = male!” as our definition either.
People who’s body or mind don’t match with their genes
Huh… where else do you think their traits come from? Their soul? Their zodiac sign? Your phenotype is nothing but your genes + regulated expression from the environment.
then be a male or a female with one or a combination of hormonal, developmental, or psychological issues
Are blond people just a male or female with a developmental issue in their hair’s pigmentation? Or for this specific category of human diversity you’re okay with calling them what they are rather than trying to define what wild type genomic expression is the “correct”? I mean, a person with XY chromosomes but a mutated SRY gene would develop entirely as a female, your worldview seems to imply that’s “hormonal and developmental issues!” but then I’d love to hear your views on race - or in fact, I would much rather not hear them, if they follow the same logic as your initial proposition.
While we are here, how about the XY individuals with a working SRY gene that physically develop as male, but have certain neural activation patterns only found in women and that swear they were born in the wrong body from a very young age? Why exactly are we going to discard the biological evidence to their subjective perception, just because it makes you uncomfortable? Because if that’s the case, maybe your subjectivity makes me uncomfortable… should we start listing and denying aspects of your physiology too?
a huge emphasis on giving the people the power to write their own collective destiny.
A functional democracy is not a dictatorship of the majority, and people from the US love making this mistake. It is true that the president gets elected by a majority vote… but this person now represents everyone, including the minority that opposes them. They do not have the right to sink the ship and kill everyone because the majority thinks that’s a good idea.
It is natural that their government will make decisions aligned with their voters (in theory) but they shouldn’t be allowed to actively undermine the rights of everyone else.
No matter how inflated your perception of your “flawless” constitution and democracy is, this is something many countries understand pretty well and yours struggles with.
You are here because a woman got pregnant by mans semen.
Because a secondary oocyte got fertilized by a spermatozoa, and then a cascade of subsequent cell divisions worked well enough. Anything else are your claims alone, not some factual statement.
That’s a whole debate people from the US are not ready for
At conception the future sex is determined by the chromosomes that the sperm contributes.
Explain that to XY individuals with a mutated SRY, meaning they never develop male traits at all, even though they’re XY.

I’d love one running an ARM build of Fedora or something
