THIS is a ‘real problem‘? A fraction of women who are hating trans? How’s this different from those women who are punching down on trans

Sorry wait… your question is about two actions

A) punching down on trans people

B) calling out other oppressed people who punch down on trans people

… and your question is about how these two actions are different?

why we have white, affluent, and fascist cis women

You can draw a different comic which depicts this, instead. The existing comic is a low-class cis women who eats up the rhetoric. Different types of people can be terrible for different reasons.

There’s a difference between A) ignoring the opinions of a particular fascist and B) ignoring a year-over-year increase in the population of people openly expressing fascist opinions.

It’s kind of like a tumor. As inconvenient as it might be, if it’s not hurting you worse than the surgery to remove it, then you should ignore it. If it starts growing, however… you probably shouldn’t ignore that.

I think a random lottery for office positions is the only system I’ve ever heard of which can’t be abused by narcissists.

Steamboat Willie is an example of Copyright. Twitter is an example of a Trademark. A Copyright is much much much easier to defend than a Trademark.

It’s stupid

Definitely.

they’ll lose in court

I’m not sure they will, genuinely. They intentionally abandoned the domain name for the website… and they’re no longer using the logo or name anywhere on their product, or corporate documentation.

The case that it’s up for grabs is actually decently strong.

Why be condescending now?

You already fucked up the point you were making. By all means, insult people’s intelligence at the start of the conversation, before you fuck up. Doing it at the same time as fucking up looks bad… but insults after you fuck up looks even worse.

Similar: having characteristics in common.

Looking similar does mean that two things are similar. You could have tried to make your point in a variety of ways, but you chose the way that can be countered by simply understanding English.

Do you know the Secretary Problem?

Your father’s been using computers for some number of years. It’s possible he’s been using computers for longer than he will continue using computers. From his perspective, the current edition of Windows is better than anything that’s come before it, so it’s the rational choice to stick with it until the end.

To get around this, you would basically need to set up a second machine with Zorin so that he can get some context before making a decision. That way, in the very realistic scenario where he decides it’s not for him, he hasn’t lost anything.

Just dropping in to say that I, as an American, also look at Europe as though it’s one country with individual states. I don’t think that’s a universal rule, but I think a lot of Americans do that, in part, because we mostly hear about politics in terms of the “European Union”.

Occasionally the news is at the country level… France’s nuclear reactors… Spain suggesting development in the military… Denmark starting conscription… but the regulations we hear about, such as regarding carbon emissions or GDPR are in terms of the EU as a whole.

Not absolutely sure… but I’ll take “Probably wouldn’t” over “Definitely already does.”

Sure, boomers had puns. So did the silent generation, gen X, and Millennials.

Gen Z also has puns. They’re not the dominant feature… but they’re there.

But China isn’t going to sell my data to Uncle Sam to help deport my family (who are legal citizens). So there’s that.

Yeah, I straight up don’t respond until they’ve asked/said the thing that they’re contacting me for.

Usually they finish their thought without me ever needing to respond. I did have one coworker who just… never said anything else. That’s also a win.

9th amendment.

It’s the best amendment, despite being, legally, the most useless.

I would argue that it was meant to cover the kind of situation where a private company is given government permission to gather surveillance data from the citizenry, in exchange for access to said data.

Hahahaha, no. Two thirds of Latino Trymp voters still approve.
