a lot of their harm is built around dependence on them

we can do stuff about many forms of it without direct interaction, and we do not need their permission for it

not all murderers are criminals, in fact I would say the worst weren’t

whether or not the murder was legal is of no consequence

this is like me saying “trans people are cool” and you replying with “actually blaire white is a fascist and she is trans”

nah criminals are cool, the issue with politicians is that they make law

HR isnt there to protect you lol

yeah I’ve been in similar situations, but with the anti-ai hatred brewing I’ve seen people starting to want to get even more aggressive about it. It is incredibly scaring

now think about all the people who do actually have 6 fingers nobody will take a pic of seriously

well i write out the script and related information in a big document, I could probably share that from a burner account for my videos

1. yes, they were specifically asked for, and closed captions are also available
2. I will try increasing the size for my next video and see how that works
3. the point was to summarize it for people with difficulties with short term memory (a lot of the people I work with), and putting it before may add confusion on that end
4. I was trying less pauses with this one, but yeah might not be as good.

and for information overload, the point is that it is as condensed and short as possible, i deal with a lot of people who need that level of information to stay engaged. This exists as an alternative to those slow 2+hour essays. Ultimately that will likely always be an issue for a good portion of people

well ultimately it is looking at 2 things at once, do you have any suggestions?

i mean, democracy is a hierarchical idea in the first place so its not like it makes much of a difference to me. I mean in the general sense here though specifically, so I think the tense is fine

I’m autistic, I’ve been called “detached and academic” my whole life, if you are inclusive how about you try including how I like to communicate instead of treating my existence like a problem to be fixed

what makes you think attacking me how I interact makes me want to interact more closely?

i mean i did mention replying to comments though, so idk how they could assume that i was planning on ignoring them?

idk it feels like bad faith assumptions

like people keep saying im not going to use peoples pronouns when i didnt say anything about that?

deeper context involves like, reading the last 10 posts someone made to get an idea of who they are before responding, is that expected here? I am not understanding what you want from me

I never said anything about not seeing people as complex humans? I’m confused

I never said anything about pronouns

I do not read usernames and take messages as they are without looking for additional context. This space is not a chat room and there is no reason to treat it as such. It is a forum.

I mean pronouns dedicated to gender, so gender has pronouns dedicated to it, not that it is some universal list. Also, you aren’t “forcing an ideology” on someone, if you describe something in terms of an ideology people must use an understanding of that ideology to process your words, for example. If I write something in binary you have to use a binary decoder to read it, you will get nothing useful if you use something else, so forcing you to decode binary is forcing you to use binary. There is nothing scary about that.

people who are parts of a system can do pronouns either way, so this isn’t much more relevant to them in the first place. Trans people in the closet are included in this.

Some of the same people will see you in different spaces, so it will have a different impact.

pronouns do have some overlap with those, yeah

practical use for a lot of things comes after building the systems where it is available in the first place. I have seen it used to designate what kind of furry someone is, I am not in those communities much so I don’t know the specifics but I imagine that can save time and confusion. One set of pronouns for those furry spaces, one for outside.

I use it/its in spaces where I do not plan on engaging with people as individuals, like on youtube where I get hundreds of comments and I’m not going to bother reading usernames. Designating the kind of interaction I will carry out and what to expect there is a good use case.

It is hard to find more examples as it is such a personal thing and not many people do it yet

yeah i should just block, you are right.

me when I would like to go outside by ableist people like you don’t wear masks so I would die :(
