  • Trans men are (or can be) biologically male. The best term to use for 'non-trans' men would be cisgender men. 'Biological' is the preferred term that bigots use to spread misinformation and insinuate that trans people aren't real, natural, or equal.

    Someone else said it pretty well:

    Biological sex is a construct. It is based on the observable traits of:

    • Primary sexual characteristics

    • Secondary sexual characeristics

    • Gonadal Sex

    • Chromosomal Sex

    A fully medically transitioned trans person usually matches a majority of these, so it is totally reasonable to say trans women are biologically female, and trans men are biologically male. Generally, the binary categorization of sex is scientifically unsound; it should be understood as a spectrum.

  • Well unlike religion, science supports this truth. Decades of science and listening to trans people and their lived experiences.

  • Can we please ban electronic advertising already? And billboards? Society would be better off without them.

  • How come?

  • If he's using an online model, I hope he used a privacy-respecting VPN, a hardened browser, and didn't sign up using his email, or else his IP address and identity are now linked to all those chats, and that info could be exposed, traded, or sold to anyone.

  • Do you know what their enforcement mechanism is for a situation like this, where a company like Clearview is doing it against Illinois residents but it's all happening online?

  • Yeah. It is oddly worded in places, but otherwise seems fine. I didn't see any grammatical errors.

    Edit: No, you're right:

    Windows 11 Phone Link accomplishes the same thing, and it approaches Android connection in the same way Unison does. However, it’s limited to Android and iOS users who can’t utilize the function due to how Windows approached compatibility in the first place.

    That makes absolutely no sense.

  • Don't forget that Obama was also a war criminal, just like the other US presidents in recent history.

  • Hate.

  • Where is kryptkey? I don't see it on F-droid.

    I do see KryptEy, which sounds like what you're talking about. What's important to mention is that it's a proof-of-concept app that hasn't been updated in two years. It may still function fine and be secure, but I wouldn't necessarily assume that, especially when we are talking about high stakes like avoiding government intrusion into chats. Has anyone ever checked or audited it?

  • Everyone talks about inflation but the reality is that people's incomes generally have not risen to match it, so while I understand inflation, I also understand that I'm not actually making more money to offset it.

  • The actual BAFTA article with the full list starts off by mentioning most influential game on popular culture, which is going to be different regionally. Shenmue may have been the most influential in Japan or the UK, but it sure didn't have the effect on pop culture in the US that Mario, Zelda, or Minecraft has had, not even close.

  • Lol...that's funny and also so depressing.

  • I refuse to parrot the phrase "corporations are people" unless I'm being clearly sarcastic, or add, "the shitty US supreme court has incorrectly ruled that" beforehand.

  • Well I'm hoping to live in a world where banks don't provide loans anymore. I'm demanding a better world than this nightmare that is unregulated capitalism in the US.

    I'm demanding a better world than any economic system that incentivizes and rewards screwing each other over and hurting one another in a race to get ahead.

  • I disagree. While I will never forgive those voters, I don't think most of them are lost causes. They've been manipulated by the largest, most well-funded misinformation and propaganda campaign ever waged against the American people.

    Exercising even the smallest amount of critical thinking skills protects oneself against most of it, but no one is completely immune to misinformation.
