      I had a similar conversation with a co-worker who tried try talk about Trans issues with me once out of no where. He was probably all fired up about something he saw on Fox News the night before. He is a 61 year old Conservative white guy but he is not a bad person. He is just mis-informed and has brain rot from the news. He started going off about his concern that maybe 1 of 10 trans persons just trying to get into the womens bathroom or something of that sort. I cut him off and said “I judge people by my own experience with said person or group.” At the time I knew there was a Trans Man we worked with. They put a lock in one of the mens restrooms for their ease of mind. So I told him “My only experience with a Trans person is our co-worker and it has been pleasant, They keep to themselves and the only accomodation they made for them isnt even in our building. Why would I feel any type of way about them?” He then informed me there is another Trans person in the company. I told him “You further proved my point I wasnt even aware of this persons existance”. He relunctantly agreed and moved on. I know not all situations are this easy to handle. People on both sides of this issue can be annoying and crazy. I have only spoke with my co-worker 4 times as I said they work in another building. I would not think twice about helping/speaking out for them in there was any injustice or persecution of them or any other human being. That being said my older co-worker and myself are not perfect, we all need to be empathetic and understanding, my world view has also grown everyone needs to be given that opportunity.

      The smaller the better tbh. With such a small community that many people are likely to have no contact with, it's easier to spread their lies, and easier for supporters to be insulated from knowing anyone personally affected by the hate and violence in a way that might peel them off.

    • @loki2240
      @loki2240 Год назад

      Yes, it's disgusting. Trans people are a tiny, tiny minority with virtually no political power of their own. Without the support of cisgender people, they are virtually powerless against bigots and bigoted systems. And of course, they're causing no inherent harm by being trans.
      I try to call out anti-trans bigots who conveniently switched from being homophobes after same-sex legal marriage became a national phenomenon and Western civilization didn't collapse. They're foul people who need groups to target with bigotry. One typically didn't hear a peep from them about trans people, when bigotry against gays and lesbians was more socially acceptable. But they quickly and vigorously accepted a new target in trans people, when the right wing offered them up.
      They aren't just misguided people - they're foul people who are intent on being foul to certain groups of people. And it isn't necessarily the case that they're no longer homophobes - in fact, it's more likely that they just don't voice their homophobia in mixed company because it isn't socially acceptable in many circles. Look at misogyny - the overwhelming majority of Americans would say that they oppose it and they believe in equal rights for women and girls. Yet, misogyny is still a major problem in our society and blatant misogyny is still often expressed in like-minded social circles. People don't necessarily reveal their true thoughts, when they have reason to believe that they will get a lot of pushback. And as we've seen with Republican politicians, they were quiet about gays and lesbians until they determined that homophobes regained enough power to target gays and lesbians with legislation and case law. Don't make the mistake of thinking that they're only going to target trans people, or LGBTQ people. They're going to continue to target ethnic minorities (especially black people), women, etc. - whenever they think that they have the power to do so.

      It's not even the first time they've marked doctors for death.

It is impossible to start a fight against a fascist as a non-fascist, because fascists start those fights as a matter of course. Their existence implies already existing violence. Any fight against them, no matter what that fight entails, is inherently defensive because they are always on the offense.

    I told her along the lines of “I wouldn’t believe everything they show, cause they do like to pick the worst most toxic examples to represent a side. Most are just hard working Americans going about life a different way, which is actually more similar on the surface than it seems.”

Especially the don't say gay bills extended the ability for parents to police what children get to learn and do outside the home.

It won't work any better this time than every other time they've tried it, but it's going to take a lot more people paying attention to make sure.

Republicans will accept literally any form of torture if it means they get to win elections, they even endorsed literal torture during W. Bush's presidency as well as attempting to bring back literal torture during the Trump era after it was outlawed by Obama which was a huge sticking point to them since it means they can't torture brown people anymore.

But those are not the same thing. While all prepubescents are minors, not all minors are prepubescents. Rogan completely fails to notice the rhetorical trick and lets Walsh get away with it.
      Rogan's concerned that people just on the cusp of puberty are receiving GRS, which does not happen. Walsh affirms but swaps so that concern is refocused on anyone under the age of 18. It's a slick move, but absolutely scummy.

Proposals and promises happened, but in the end, Republican lawmakers did what they wanted, and took pieces of the city and fused them with suburbs and rural communities far away that they know can be relied upon to always vote conservative. Salt Lake is by no means a liberal place, but it's much more accepting than the rest of the state. It makes me sad to see my home broken up and helmed by people more hateful than I can bear. It only makes it feel worse when there are people like Cox, or Romney, are our only "compassionate" officials. If their passive nature can be described as such. Men who seem to be so committed to their religious ideals of compassion and love, but won't denounce those in their own party actively harming others.

      The only way to fix that is to make the populous counties (most of the Wasatch Front and probably Washington County) single-county districts, bundling the rest of the state into the minimum number of contiguous, multi-county districts possible to ensure every district is a multi-seat district and then implementing some variety of proportional representation. Ensure Utah and Davis Counties return a Dem or two along with their dozens of Republicans and that Salt Lake County actually returns a majority of Democrats in line with how their voters vote. First-past-the-post voting fundamentally does not yield democratic results and letting the pols have any say at all into what their own districts look like lets them chose the voters instead of the voters choosing them. Prop 4 was a nice attempt, but I knew even as I voted for it that it wouldn't be enough to keep the Republicans from gerrymandering themselves into perpetual supermajorities.

    I found the whole premise of Walsh's movie annoying. Any freshman college student who has taken philosophy for general education requires will tell you, there are lots of simple sounding questions which become irrevocably tangled when you actually think about them. This happens all the time in philosophy... and asking, "what is a woman?" Is posing a philosophical question.
    You can just as easily elicit confused answers from people by asking, "what is a person?" Or "what is a color?" Or "How do you know if something is true?" People can turn themselves into pretzels answering these questions, particularly if you come prepared with pointed objections or counter examples. It is not hard to do. That doesn't mean these concepts are illegitimate, or even that they are irrational.
    In the same way, Walsh's movie doesn't actually say _anything_ about the legitimacy of trans identity, much less legal human rights for trans youth. It's pandering, and pretending there is a fake crisis afflicting millions of teen girls.

This was 1991!

      Gender has always been this way in practice really. It's just become more widely recognized and known. Partially due to trans issues and partially due to women slowly shedding off more traditionally feminine roles as we know them.

      How are trans issue supporting that, when instead of sticking with what was progressive in say, the 90's, (that you could be a very feminine man, or a very masculine woman and that's fine) , activists are saying that the proof that they are or aren't a man or a woman, is that they like things typicly associated with the other sex, and therefore should get treatment to change their body ?
      Hardline dress codes were already ended before the last two decades in the west. But the rest of the world doesn't folow what you seem to say.

      @@Kamfrenchie But that determining factor is again obviously not wholly sex because when you're trying to define sex as a 100% essentialist defining factor of gender you're either describing secondary sex characteristics like vagina and breasts which are wholly cosmetic and physical, or chromosomal alignments which are superfluous because they cannot be identified through practical means socially and have combinations that are atypical that still lead to male or female outcomes.
      I can easily map this on to myself because if I was suddenly given a vagina and tits and chromosomes, I would still 100% consider myself a man.
      "Joan of arc wasn't considered a man at all, for example."
      Joan of arc was literally considered a devil worshiper because she had male leaning tendencies, refused to wear dresses and suffered several attempts at being sexually assaulted.
      So again this is relevant because as I said previously in the past what was considered feminine was incredibly hard lined.
      If you were a woman who presented with gender expressive traits that were considered "masculine" you weren't considered a "man" BECAUSE gender expression was latched onto sex.
      We simply do not live in that age anymore where gender expression is as demonized, but to your point.
      She was demonized, this is one facet of gender liberation, women not being called devils for showing male leaning traits.
      "activists are saying that the proof that they are or aren't a man or a woman, is that they like things typicly associated with the other sex, and therefore should get treatment to change their body ?"
      I don't care what activists are saying I'M not saying that, what I'M saying is that gender is not 100% grafted on to sex through the basic deductive reasoning that socially we cannot see each others chromosomes and almost always map someone's gender at first meeting to their appearance.
      Now if you check everyone's genitals when you meet them, I'd say you're very out there.
      As for the trans issue as with cis people there is an underlying fact of the matter for why they suffer from gender dysphoria and in my opinion the best evidence for this are studies that show there is a leaning of a sort of brain mismatch with secondary sex characteristics.
      " But the rest of the world doesn't folow what you seem to say.

      I mean yeah, because it's an authoritative theocracy, do you like Iran? you should try living there if you find those policies to your liking.

    Lmao, ah yes, I forgot all about the “Red Wave” that was supposed to be coming last year. Listening back to that clip, followed up by your lovely German accent saying “And what happened?… Republicans got fuckin’ trounced.” Made me genuinely belly laugh. All the anti-trans stuff is just so absurd that it puts off even people who aren’t very supportive of the trans community. There are plenty of working class people who most leftists would view as transphobic, and probably rightly so, because they’re very out of touch with the LGBTQIA+ community, they don’t understand trans issues, they don’t always use the right pronouns, and they think & say all sorts of problematic things, but despite all of that they have no desire whatsoever to see trans people legally oppressed, they see no reason to prevent trans people from transitioning, etc, because they are all too aware that the existence & acceptance of trans people has absolutely zero negative effects on their lives, and while that lack of personal effect on them means they have no desire to come out in strong support of trans people, it also means they have no desire to come out against trans people. At the end of the day, they don’t really care about trans people because they aren’t effected by trans issues, and no matter how hard Republicans try, they cannot force those people to care about those issues, and come out against them. Trans people are an extremely small portion of our society, they always have been, and they always will be, and as a group they are totally harmless. That is a shame insofar as it means there aren’t legions of people from every corner of society coming out in support of them, it also protects them to some extent because it makes it very hard for the right to rile people up against them. I live in hope that, as a result of how poorly this bigoted nonsense plays with the majority of society, it will soon lead to the separation of the coalition of the money people & the evangelical whack jobs that has made up the Republican Party since the late 1970s, and that the Republican Party will take the side of the money people over the evangelicals. Evangelicals are a small minority within our society, and they have entirely too much political power. They are the one group of people who actually need to be disenfranchised because they hold way more power than they should based on the percentage of the population they account for.

    The USA has passed seven of the 10 Stages of Genocide as described by by Genocide Watch founding president Gregory Standton with regards to their treatment of trans people
    1. Classification: People are divided into "them and us".
    2. Symbolization: When combined with hatred, symbols may be forced upon unwilling members of pariah groups
    3. Discrimination: Law or cultural power excludes groups from full civil rights: segregation or apartheid laws, denial of voting rights
    4. Dehumanization: One group denies the humanity of the other group. Members of it are equated with animals, vermin, insects, or diseases.
    5. Organization: Genocide is always organized... Special army units or militias are often trained and armed.
    6. Polarization: Hate groups broadcast polarizing propaganda.
    7. Preparation: Mass killing is planned. Victims are identified and separated because of their ethnic, religious or gender identity, or sexual orientation.
    When you have politicians making secret lists of trans people, you should be very afraid. From here, the next steps are as follows
    8. Persecution: Expropriation, forced displacement, ghettos, concentration camps.
    9. Extermination: It is 'extermination' to the killers because they do not believe their victims to be fully human.
    10. Denial. The perpetrators deny that they committed any crimes.

    Great to see you on RUclips again, I've been waiting for a new video! Minor language note: English doesn't have a true system of genders like in other languages, with it mostly being the pronouns. That said, "he" is for male people, "she" is for female people. But "it" uniquely doesn't refer to people, but to objects.
    The default gender neutral pronoun is "they" as legally from before Shakespeare, it has been used to refer to persons unknown but specified.

Their current base is fairly old and comes from a background of media isolation, so I don’t know how much of a future they have.

    This kind of reminds me of the situation in Poland post-WW1. The right wingers were also so sure of absolute victory in Presidential elections they were totally stunned that the center-left candidate (Gabriel Narutowicz) won. They stirred up mass hysteria that the election was "stolen" by "foreigners" (the Polish minorities, esp. Jews, who overwhelmingly voted for Narutowicz) and in the end, days after taking office, a crazed right-winger painter shot the newly appointed President, which became a step in Poland's descent into authoritarianism later down the line. You can see the similarities, right? Confidence in victory, disappointment, bigoted scapegoating, hysteria -> death and violence.
