"it's fine to have a preference, but you just need to examine the societal reasons you might thi--" it's fine to have a "gender" but you just need to examine the societal reasons you might think you want to chop your tits off

Hi, I just wanted to share this photo I took. I think in fact, the most Photograph I have ever taken. No, this is not AI, this is a real photo, and whenever I look at it I feel like Tom Haverford staring at that abstract painting in Parks and Rec. Also I took it out the window of a car going 100kph, so, uh, yeah.

men get into radical feminism because of degredation fetish and any engagement with them they're getting off on. if a man tries to get you to say how much you hate men he's probably getting pleasure from it. literally just ignore it and block

starlink pisses me off
the issue of its impact on astronomy and light pollution has been discussed a lot, and is a very real issue (i've noticed up to 10% of the frames i take while doing astrophotography being rendered unusable by starlink trails), but there's an even bigger issue
not only does starlink constitute the majority of active satellites in orbit, with over 6,000 already up and potentially over 30,000 planned, but these satellites are disposable
each satellite only has a lifetime of 5-7 years (not including satellites that prematurely fail), and re-enters earth's atmosphere and disintegrates at the end of its life, and is then replaced by newly launched satellites
it's also worth mentioning that aluminum from re-entering satellites forms aluminum oxide, which can damage the ozone layer and risks reversing the recovery of the ozone hole
and this is touted as progress, "the future"! the way we bring high-quality internet to anyone who doesn't live in a big city or a wealthy country. a gift to all humanity! (except elon musk gets to deny it to whoever he wants)
and it is literally unsustainable
the so-called internet infrastructure of the future relies on frequent rocket launches spewing carbon dioxide and black soot into the atmosphere, and disposable satellites that destroy the shield that protects all life on earth from UV radiation
the atmosphere is a global commons. orbit is a global commons. yet a single company owned by a single fascist billionaire has appropriated a vast swath of orbital space and filled it with infinite trash machines - without any international regulation. but bring this up in any space fan circles, and you'll be met with techbros screaming at you and calling you an enemy of humanity for not thinking that elon musk should be able to do whatever he wants without regulation
starlink isn't the future, it's a cancer filling our sky with trash (and i guess some people get kinda expensive internet along the way? oh yeah btw the poor people they're talking about starlink helping can't afford it)
anyway fuck starlink, they should stop launching these trash satellites, if you want everyone to have internet we should build more publicly-owned fiber instead

So many young people are disconnected from reality.
Lots of young women want mastectomies and testosterone while still identifying as a lesbian. They don’t understand that for the rest of their lives after medicalization, people could be looking at them and assuming they’re trans, assuming they want to be a man.
They don’t understand that dating, making friends, finding community, and just moving through the world as a masculinized woman isn’t the idealized fantasy that they’ve created in their heads or on their social media. They don’t understand the permanence of their choices and the way it makes people perceive and judge them.
Lots of young women identify as butch and non-binary, as if being gender nonconforming isn’t what being butch is in the first place. As if the way they feel as a “non-binary” person is any different than the feelings of every other GNC woman who came before them.
Genuinely all these kids need is to talk to one GNC woman-identified woman over the age of 30, and it would all click for them.
But they just call us all terfs as if their elders haven’t been through the same exact shit that they’re going through. As if we’re dinosaurs with nothing important to say.
The lesbian community is fractured. We don’t have the multi-generational connections that we need in order for the young women to thrive. And the reason for the fracture is misogyny and trans ideology.

They like to tell on themselves.
Disclaimer: I do not support fascism, quite the opposite, I am a communist. This post is about the TiM above telling on himself.

Mentality of an average men !!!
In their ideal scenario ,Women must become small for men to feel worthy and human.
No matter how much you please men,how much you cut down your own limbs,that is still not enough...men will still hurt you and are opportunistic..
One should avoid men like the plague .

You don't see many homeless women on the street because they're getting trafficked and raped. Hope that helps because u ppl are so dump with your “society cares more about women that's why the majority of the homeless are men” no it's because they're getting assaulted and pimped in motels that's why u don't see them.
