  • If Dems don’t carry a majority in both houses no meaningful change will happen. As long as no one shows up to the polls and local elections it’s pointless to sit here and jerk each other off about how bad the Dems are. Unless of course you want to be an accelerationist, then keep dreaming about the big revolution while kids go to school without lunch vouchers and DACA citizens losw their residency status.





  • The medical consensus is just as much about our understanding of the symptoms underlying issues as much as the treatment. The issue is your “belief” system of what falls in the categories you described. I’ll ask you how you define the female gender. Give us a working definition and let’s see where we disagree.



  • Why don’t you read up on the medical consensus and make an effort to understand gender dysphoria? If you really care, you would participate in the conversation with a genuine interest and understanding. It seems you are more invested in confirming your biases instead. The medical research has evolved way past the surface level analysis you will find on Lemmy or Reddit.



  • I never directly stated they are completely equivalent. I said the rhetorical devices they use are the same. This is hard to refute. I’m an American and I also happen to live in Europe (I was born and grew up in Italy) so I know plenty about Fascism. Why don’t you provide an actual counterargument?


  • Why don’t you provide a counterargument instead of whining. The truth is fascists need an out group to maintain power. That outgroup is always picked from some type of marginalized group. The issue is republicans are running out of those out-groups more and more, but the strategy is virtually the same. If you go back in time and analyze the rhetoric it’s virtually identical.
