  • X now treats the term cisgender as a slur

    Jump

  • I think "slur" is not the right word but in some cases it can be used ina a derogartory or dimissive way.

  • You misunderstood my point. Context is important and, in this case, the context is using these terms in a platform for discussion (which are usually not very friendly). In my comment, I was thinking of why calling someone "cis" or "trans" or any other thing in a conversation can often be to insult or discredit the other person and why that's wrong.

  • they take it personally because to them, they’re just normal.

    Maybe they (including myself) might take it personally because to them you ARE normal. Regardless of your gender, skin colour or sexual orientation.

    So, if I'm treating everyone the same, why is it wrong to ask for other people to do it as well? For example, if I'm trying to talk about a certain topic and your opinion is discarded simply because "you're cis" then yeah, I have every right to be offended. Just because I'm white and a man it doesn't mean that I'm necessarily part of the problem.

    And no, I wouldn't presume to know how if feels to be part of a minority that has to face constant violence and discrimination but that's precisely why I want to have the conversation, I want to better understand what other people are going through. Although, that doesn't mean that I will (or should) agree with everything the other person says. Being part of a minority doesn't magically make you right about everything. Just like I might be biased due to my personal context, you can be biased because of yours.

  • Text looks perfectly fine from a normal distance on a 27" 1440p monitor. And yeah, the pixel count IS significantly higher. It's about 16% more.

    However, if you want higher power consumption and much lower fps for little to no gain, you do you brother.

  • Do you use your tv for work 8+ hours a day with static elements on the screen at all times?

  • 5k makes no sense in a 27" monitor and no gpu would be able to actually drive that many pixels in a game at a high refresh rate.

  • What did you get told as a child that you realised was a lie as you got older?

  • You're right, they're not happy, they're dead. And delicious.

  • There's no need for a defense, buy what you want. However, there are lots of sub-1000 phones that are very good.

  • Asus respects you as a customer? That's why they just lost a lawsuit because they wouldn't provide a bootloader unlocking method?

  • Not really, no. That would be the answer if x= len(day). The code in the image would just throw an error.

  • No one said that reflection on any given topic is negative. Just that this particular way of doing it is antagonistic and I'd argue is even detrimental to the conversation. I mean, if you actually learned that discrimination is wrong, why do you teach that by actually doing it yourself? It's like a parent, that got beat up when he was young, beating up his kid to teach him that violence is a bad thing.

  • Reflection on what? The actions of people that are now senile or dead? And how? By discriminating people? Yeah, really positive.

  • If it's art, it's pretty childish art. "Revenge" is not useful nor healthy.

  • Also, how can you justify doing something that's objectively wrong just because someone else did it first?

  • Ok so you're saying that women used to be discriminated and that (thankfully) is no longer the case. Why would it be ok for the opposite to happen? Both things are wrong and that "eye for an eye" mentality benefits no one.
