Is there anyone that is hated by the quote unquote translobby that is a good person?
They only seem to go after the crazies, the bigots and the dickheads

Can you imagine if you gave K-pop a go and genuinely liked it and then whenever anybody asked you in the future what music you're into you'd have to say, "I'm quite into my K-pop, actually."
Nightmare.
It's a practical appeal for compassion, as a continuation of the previous section highlighting bigotry masquerading as misattributed or phony forms of empathy (such as those rising out of a claimed concern for women or lesbians or German racial purity etc.). It's a robustly reasoned call for basic standards of decency. Her videos have always had a conciliatory element.
The intellectual argument is dusted in the first hour or so, with Wynn hollowing out the rhetoric of the TERF position (and those allied).
The glam and the memes often disguise how necessarily esoteric her content is. For Contrapoints to have any reach and practical political effect, she needs to also appeal using simpler, implementable strategies. The lofty intellectual arguments are a lock but I doubt they have much power to convert.
There's only so many ways of describing the same concept. Not saying that's what's happened here but typically you'd expect plagiarism hits on most academic works that aren't actually plagiarised.
They invented lying for a reason..
I think people sometimes lied even before K-pop but I'm not sure.
What's Quizzical?
Why are you sharing a 4chan nazi meme and the world's least funny parody account?
It say it was created by some kid on tiktok...
It was created by literal nazis who thought they could use it to sow division among LGBQT+ people.
The second one is just regular old bigotry.
I am confused by what a nazi is nowadays, could you please elaborate , doesn't look like a conventional one
That guy might have planted the seed, but the Twitter account and the related attempts to spread awareness is a push by literal nazis on 4chan to try and get the LGB part to shun the QT+ part of the community.
He's done it again that 4chan!
I was looking at the UK census and there's a section where you can identify as whatever you like and this was trending with it
Not sure what you're going on about at this point. You know why it was called 'Super Straight' right? The clue is in the initials.
I'm always suspicious of people who go to elaborate lengths to prove how manly they are, inventing new sexualities and growing a pube-tache. Manly. Real man. Yep.
literal nazis, definitely not figurative ones.
That guy is a real badass, I almost cut myself on all his edge.
Yes, I know the SS attachment. Is that a reason you can't talk about it given its gaining traction on twitter?
Do you not know what a census is?
Literal nazis in the sense that they are fans of Adolf Hitler, yes.
What's gaining traction on twitter? The SS thing was days ago and seems to have completely disappeared after it was quickly realised to be a nazi troll.
I know what a census is, yeah.
As in "people who think gassing Jews was the right thing to do."
e: The word 'nazi' sees a lot of use these days, and often gets directed at not-actual-nazis. Thus I thought highlighting that I was talking about literal fecking nazis would be smart. Seems it didn't stop some dummy from trying to be clever.
Well, it hadn't, hence the post made on the 9th March
Typically you'd hope that if people realise something is a Nazi (like, actual Nazis) troll attempt they would then lose interest in it. Rather than think "hey, those Nazis were only messing around but they might have a good idea here" and continuing to promote the SS.
I'm not sure Andrew fecking Doyle trying to make a joke counts as 'gaining traction'.
Of course it does, he has a big following and brought it to the attention of people who had never heard it before
I dont think you actually understand what I am saying about the census
I don't. What the feck are you on about? How is some nazi meme relevant to the census?
People are identifying as it in the upcoming census, if enough people do it, legally it gets recognised, and technically you can then be charged with a hate crime if you discriminate against anyone that identifys as it
It doesn't. You've been deeply misled.
If you want to get technical about it, it gets brought up as possible legislation
It's not about technicalities. It's that answering stupid things on a census has never made a difference. Or Jedi would be a legally recognised religion.
But it was brought up to a commission to discuss it as a possible religion, it was rejected
And SS will be rejected if it comes up also. What's the issue.
Are you saying every single person that identify as that is doing it because they are Nazis as well? Isn't it like BLM, people rejecting all the stigma attached with it but agreeing with the defined message/slogan?
It seems a bit like the "all lives matter" of sexuality.
Yes, this thing invented by nazis to splinter the LGBQT+ community, that apparently a bunch of absolute weapons are taking at face value, is like BLM. Totally.
Any and all of the dunces who looks at that and thinks "gee, i can get behind this" are at best transphobes. A normal, non-shit person wouldn't have the need for some special signifier to inform people that they're not really into trans people.
This literally just come out, not sure if the gender bit remains

It wasn't though, it was invented by a kid on tiktok and 4chan seemed to latch onto it given its initials.
