Do you know how wars work?

I understand where you are coming from. I am offering an alternative point of view to explain why many of us identify as transsexual. I don’t think it’s super useful to police language that people use to self-id.

Luigi did not do anything. Stop listening to cops

“Sex” is a biological classification. “Gender” goes beyond that and encompasses what somebody wants their place in society to be.

I feel like you are really hung up on sex as to mean “biological” but I want you to consider that this (perceived) distinction between sex and gender is precisely the part that’s harmful to trans people. By separating sex into its own “biological” “scientific” reality you are missing that sex is as arbitrary as gender. Who is to decide what are sexual characteristics and what is not?

Transsexual refers to trans people in an explicitly sexual way and puts a heavy emphasis on genitals and sexual characteristics

i think most people use it without the emphasis on genitals (notice how there is not mention of genitals in the word transsexual). and even if they do, who cares? how does this erase identities or empower transmedicalism? just because you are uncomfortable with a word doesnt mean it cannot be used by anyone

i agree

at orgs doing actual work

my disagreement here is what “doing actual work” is. both trots and anarchists have niche un-scaleable operations and very often completely disconnected from the working class.

real world org is directly helping people it’s anarchist and if it’s trying to do communist education and agitprop it’s trot

what is this based on exactly? also did you just forget about AES being ML?

Listen to your grandpa

There are some comedy movies, like the diamond arm, but Soviet movies are not known to be particularly upbeat fyi

Like a solid fifth of Europe yeah

Maybe using star wars as a point of reference isn’t the best idea. It’s not some peak revolutionary strategy or something. And if I were to indulge in this comparison, killing a couple of functionaries is hardly destroying the most powerful military installation in the galaxy.

i mean his post is not wrong, just a very anti-adventurist position.

what

can we have a spoiler rule or something for andor
