I’m surprised you spelled ‘you’re’ correctly.

Thank you.

You’re absolutely right that most people wouldn’t give a second thought to these topics if right wing media, in particular, makes it seem like these issues are the most important things in the world and society will collapse if we don’t do something.

Have you read any of the 3 studies I’ve mentioned in my comments? Maybe they’re over the head of a 12 year old.

“That advantage is entirely irrelevant to scholastic activities”. Did anything I say have anything at all to do with academics?

The studies I reference are Strength, power and aerobic capacity of transgender athletes: a cross-sectional study in the British Journal of Sports Medicine (2024), Body composition, exercise-related performance parameters and associated health factors of transgender women, cisgender women and cisgender men volleyball players by the NHI (2024), and Transsexuals and competitive sports in the European Journal of Endocrinology (2004). You can look up what you want to about each. Though the results generally say that strength metrics equalize over time, some skeletal metrics and residual lean mass differences remain even after several years of hormone therapy.

And since you decided to focus only on the trans issue in my comment I should remind you the thrust of my argument was in regards to Democrats putting identity politics before good governance.

What I mean when I say ‘it seems obvious to me’ is that based on the results of reputable scientific investigation it seems clear that trans women retain some degree of biological advantage over people born female.

Democrats have given up on the working class in favor of identity politics. They can’t see through any other lens except the one that sees white people as oppressors and every other group as deserving of everything we can give them to make up for this “injustice”. A good example is trans rights in sports. It seems fairly obvious to me that a trans woman should not be able to compete in women’s sports simply because of the biological advantage of having a male body. Yet democrats blindly insist that trans women have a right to do anything an actual female can do. And liberals are also condescending towards anyone who disagrees with their views. Rather than thinking ‘that’s actually a valid point I should consider’ it’s always ‘you’ll eventually come around to seeing things the right way, like I do’.

Of course they are.

If I wasn’t hungry I would so fuck with these things.

I’m imagining the cases of clinically diagnosed mental health issues are far less than the self-diagnosed. And there are a lot of people on social media who claim to have mental health issues when they don’t know what they’re talking about.

It’s obviously reminding him he’s secretly gay every time he sees it.

They should have immediately flown in RFK Jr to sample all the milk.

I was neutral, but now I’m on Planters side after reading these replies.

How can there be such a disparity of standards when Trump can be accused of such things and far worse and just have it roll off his back with no consequences at all yet the much milder accusations against Platner might derail his candidacy?

Your scrum master or project manager should be putting these stories into Jira. And infinite canvas boards can be great for a lot of UX work but you need to work together with UX and get them to give you better deliverables.

What are you expected to do with these files? Are these what you’re given to build the design from?

Do you use these tools as a web developer, and if so, what for?

It is beyond doubt that this is the same technique Trump has used for years to support a fictitious narrative yet the media still shies away from doing anything substantial to counter it. It’s pure propaganda and there are ways to address it. One way is a truth sandwich. First, state the actual facts. Then mention the false claim and attribute it clearly. Then restate the facts. The goal is to prevent the falsehood from becoming the most memorable part of the story. The media must also move away from “both sides” journalism if evidence overwhelmingly supports one side by suggesting that imbalance. Another technique is not to overamplfy every provocation. Something like this needs to be on page 3. Not one of the first headlines on the site or in the paper.

The media could really help us here but they seem to have completely failed us.

That would be a great way to fund a UBI.
