Thinking that social democrats are further from liberal than socialists and communists is pretty funny. I’ve yet to see any social democrat party oppose market economy and/or private property. All over Europe socdem parties have been part of governments that have privatised essential markets like healthcare, public transport and housing. Their actions speak louder than their words.
Different communities then I guess, I browse ‘all’ a lot.
I guess me being a mathematician makes me notice them more. I’ve seen many in several communities, but me being biased makes me wish there were more.
This meme is highly misinformed about how any of these academic subjects work though. (Meta)physicists and theologists don’t make claims, they research the consequences of certain assumptions. Most elementary sciences work that way.
I think everyone with a niche skill experiences that to some extent. Almost all posts about mathematics on lemmy attract people acting like they understand what’s going on while making wrong claims lol, I only rarely see comments that are fully correct.
I’ve been (temp) banned from a 196 for openly not supporting Biden. Denying and hiding the fact that there are a lot of queer leftists who do not support Biden is erasure so I think it’s actually extremely important to have a community that is explicitly for those voices that get erased elsewhere. You won’t see many posts there encouraging others not to vote for Biden (in fact, I believe a lot of frequent posters there intent to vote for him if he doesn’t step out). So the way you’re framing the discourse in that community is just blatantly false.
I do agree that there are a lot of comments on this post that are transphobic which is inexcusable. I also think that you specifically are using this situation to try to mischaracterise a person you already clearly dislike. OP is justified in being hurt and frustrated by the fact that They were misgendered and couldn’t call out the mistake. You’re taking it much further by saying that the mod in question wants to genocide queer people because he used the wrong pronoun 1 time.
Honestly by now it should be pretty clear for anyone reading your comment history that you’re not open to people having a different way to oppose the current genocide that is going on and are happy use lies (a lot) to put your point forward and to try to silence others.
That’s not what I wrote though.
I wouldn’t be surprised if the reason that he missed the capital in that comment is because he copied it from another comment he made or because writing that response has become so automated for him that he didn’t think about changing pronoun. It’s not an excuse but it’s more likely than it being intentional misgendering.
That community gets overrun by people saying to vote for Biden or defending Biden’s actions so it’s a lot of work to remove all those comments (there’s a lot of space on blahaj to voice those opinions and in my experience not much space to voice critique outside of libertyhub so I’m in favour of banning those comments there in order to elevate opinions that get suppressed elsewhere). It means that mistakes are easily made, and to make it themselves easier the mods there probably ban people for comments that they consider to be in a grey area because it reduces the workload.
That’s not an axiom or definition, it’s a consequence of the axioms that define arithmetic and can therefore be proven.
The problem with that thread was that the admin kept arguing and trying to educate trans people on transphobia. If they didn’t know about JKR’s transphobia then they shouldn’t have kept on arguing as long as they have.
Putting in the energy to make well-rounded arguments in a discussion and educating a person who clearly has no idea what they’re talking about does not seem like a nightmare to me. I’m honestly pretty glad that they did that.
Not necessarily disagreeing with you but almost all studies are funded by private companies.
I like to hold my laptop at exactly those points where your design holds them and I suspect that that is the reason why my laptop is bent now. I hold it like that whenever I move it so not for long durations but frequently. I’d definitely recommend against doing it for longer durations.
