I completely forgot this was a thing

Still a way not to die I guess?

What happens if the prisoner refuses to work?

It seems like they get less privileges, not specifically punished

Inherently transphobic? You’re just assuming and extrapolating

Don’t assume it’s malicious, they might just not know. Aren’t we here to discuss? Being wrong doesn’t mean I should be banned, but I should be corrected. Closing debates when I’m respectful isn’t useful to anyone

I just like to question things, not take and accept them just because the person is concerned by the topic, especially if they have a sensibility or opinion on the subject

What prevents me from working a few months, getting enough money for a computer and internet, and then have food and housing for free and don't work for the rest of my life?

and if you're not doing good then there's always the "go to jail" route: free housing and food, at the cost of your freedom

how would that be different without capitalism?

great way to avoid the drama, but there's a risk of false positives

I guess you don't mind it, probably not losing anything of value

This means that liking trans women doesn’t automatically mean you’re attracted to men, so calling it gay is an oversimplification of how attraction works.

I get it. Calling it hetero would seem like an oversimplification as well though. We need more words!

Attraction isn’t really exclusively based on sex, though

I get it, but making it solely based on gender isn't a good idea as well I believe. Doesn't seem specific enough. Also, trans women and trans men don't necessarily change physically, right? They can still look like their birth gender, that's what's throwing me off I believe.

people are claiming as mods abusing their power that didn’t turn out to be people getting upset about being banned for being transphobic.

That's exactly the thing: bans for transphobia are often about non-transphobic speech. Not agreeing on specific subjects doesn't mean one is transphobic. Thinking a cisgender person can have an opinion on laws or regulation regarding transgenders is not transphobia. Having your feelings hurt over an opinion while you are a trans doesn't make it transphobia. Transphobia is hate speech.

oh sure, I'm not talking about this case obviously

I was thinking about things like epstein files not being made public and left accusing right, and right accusing left

Mass surveillance, facism, war... that happened under obama now happens with trump

Don't have examples on left blaming right when it happens though, I was mainly saying that each side will blame the other for things they have done too, but obviously I missed the point of this post because that's clearly not it. I also believe I wanted to say that one side is quick to accuse the other without real evidence, and assumes that the other one is responsible when it's not that simple.

after re-reading my comment I feel dumb, I'll strike the text. Sorry.

After a bit of research, it seems like it aims towards being based on gender and not sex, hmm. I might be wrong on this one?

I believe I might think it's about sex because I wouldn't be interested in a non cisgender person, but that might only be me? I had the feeling that most heterosexual people would not be interested in trans people

According to you, homosexuality is only about gender, not sex. This isn't right and there is no consensus as far as I know. I would personally say a cis guy dating a trans woman is gay

gender and sex are not the same, for the 100th time

You're the one inventing misgendering here
