Our goal is to be the one stop shop for leftism here at lemmy.world! We welcome anyone with beliefs ranging from SocDemocracy to Anarchism to post, discuss, and interact with our community. We are a democratic community, and as such, welcome metaposts that seek to amend the rules through consensus. Post articles, videos, questions, analysis and more. As long as it's leftist, it's welcome here!

I'm a trans woman and a cis male friend of mine is about to get a mastectomy after losing a ton of weight and as we were talking I learned a blind spot I have. Apparently cis people aren't just used to fighting with insurers. Like one of the steps of gender affirming surgery is to quote the insurance company back to them after they deny you, getting to not do that is like getting to have surgery with only one or two letters of recommendation.
