Thank you, you said it well. I agree wholeheartedly.

I thought we were past this type of rhetoric?

If you expected me to already know that exact image, why did you show it to me? I guessed correctly anyways, didn’t I?

How do you guys manage to put him in the last spot I look EVERY TIME

He has joyful eyes

Some voters arestill “undecided” because “both sides are the same” (aka they don’t know how to tell fact from fiction)

What is that image? A bomb crater?

So before I explain, it’s important to keep in mind that for these discussions I’m adhering to the separation of “gender” and “sex” as different terms. Your sex is your physical attributes, and your gender is a mental thing-- do you see yourself as a boy or a girl (or, as some people do, something different from both of those options-- I’ll stick to the two main genders here).

This means that transgender girls are people who were “assigned male at birth” (they have a male sex / their appearance caused people to treat them as a boy) and later realized that they see themselves as girls. They may or may not have physically transitioned (ie. changed sex), or may be in a state of partial transition (since genitalia, hormones, and some other things all make up sex, and those can disagree).

TL;DR: A transgender girl was born physically male, now considers themselves to be female, and may or may not have physically transitioned to match that new identity.

I appreciate you taking the time to look into this! It can definitely get complicated, especially if you start looking into edge cases, and in some regions it’s pretty rare to meet someone like this IRL, so natural exposure can be low.

Edit: As a useful guide I’ll also give a short list of transgender-related acronyms:

• AMAB = Assigned male at birth
• AFAB = Assigned female at birth
• FTM = Female-to-Male (transitioned to male, aka “trans man”)
• MTF = Male-to-Female (transitioned to female, aka “trans woman”)
• HRT = Hormone Replacement Therapy (taking hormones to promote physical changes to align your sex with your preferred gender)

This isn’t a grammar issue, this is a “you’re being vague” issue. I’m simply asking for clarity. If you cannot provide that, you don’t understand enough about your own position for me to care.

You have three options:

• Kamala’s policies
• Trump’s policies
• “I don’t care” (no vote)
• surprise mystery 4th option: vote 3rd party

One set of policies is more helpful to ending the war peacefully than the other is. If you cared about your cause instead of grandstanding, you’d vote for it. Not voting sends no signal, and on average ends up with a policy somewhere between the two options, which is worse than the better option by definition. If you’re going yo waste your vote, at LEAST vote third party so that your message will be heard.

I hope you’re still on Lemmy when it happens, this is gonna be really funny either way

Repubs will blame it on Dems for no reason
