Transgender is it just me that is totally perplexed?

[pengaleng]

it is well interesting tho

What about the impact of capitalism on kids, or ubiquitous social media, or our increasingly demented school system? We're happy to inflict all that shit on kids with no real understanding of the long term effects and, unlike with puberty blocking drugs, no choice on the part of the child.

Who is this we? I'm not happy about that at all and I wouldn't assume others were either.

Is that in response to me? I was acknowledging it looked interesting based on the few minutes I watched, but I'm getting my youngest to bed atm.

No, they're just being a twat posting random irrelevant bollocks on the thread. One or two word posts or quoting their own nonsense post twice with nothing else written, that sort of thing

I know this thread has been a bit tough but I'm quite pissed off by the lack of acknowledgement that I didn't say what was alleged. How on earth can we have a reasonable discourse if this kind of shit goes on?

You owe me an apology Stella

Challenging.

You have to be very careful what you say on the internet pengaleng.

Saw this (on tweeter). Pretty stark example of what FabricLiveBaby! said about how ideas about gender help people to sell the same thing twice.

 

[Clair De Lune]

this touches on most of the things if yer bored and wanna watch a lecture

it's good

I'm still watching this but for anyone who doesn't want to watch the whole way through, there are really interesting points made in the questions at the end relevant to the thread from around 57 minutes onwards

You're probably on ignore.

Baffled, me, but I just had a visit from SELDOC.

That video is very interesting. But I'd imagine much of what's said would be very controversial to large parts of the trans community e.g. the stuff about children online telling others how to game the medical system, and the proposed response to that.

I found the stuff about the rejection of identarian politics interesting.

Would like to understand more about the idea of indeterminacy.

Not sure what to say about this, except that the kids are alright.

I've started wondering if jonti is A.I. calling Turing.

If they are A.I, I don't think they're going to pass the test.
