Poison them how?

I'm really glad people are starting to notice their crimes. Only a year ago it felt like I would only see comments like this in anti-capitalist communities.
It's probably fine unless the developers of lemmy_server themselves start to give companies integrations and backdoors.
It sounds like she doesn't understand herself yet. Don't worry. Everyone finds themselves eventually. I'm not implying that I know more than either you or she does about her. I'm just saying if she's changing her mind lots, that's probably just experimentation. It's healthy. But take her seriously. The experimentation is pointless if others don't take her seriously, because, if so, the moment she settles on something, people are going to treat her differently, and she's going to have to start over again.
When I was young, before I transitioned, I thought I was bisexual, then I thought I was gay, then I thought I was bisexual again, and then I went through a bunch of other stuff. Finally, I realized I was a woman. I still have no idea what my sexuality is. I've dated plenty on both sides, but I'm married to a woman.
Oh, and I'm sure you're wondering, why would I transition to a woman, just so that I can date and marry women? Wouldn't it be better to just be straight? It's a very valid question. A lot of people ask me. And, it's not about sexuality. It's not about who I'm interested in. It's about who I am. And that is completely separate from who I love. The way most see it, gender is one thing, that's who you see yourself as. Sexuality is another thing, it's who you see in others.
Sorry, this post didn't get through because of federation issues. I had sent it 4 hours ago.
Wow that's wild.
I'm really poor and hate paying for things monthly. I had been asking my friends though if I could use their networks through tunnels, but no one was able to understand what I meant enough to be able to help. They would have to know how to set up SSH.
That's the whole thing. I was on CGNAT, and decided to pay $10 monthly to fix it and get a public ip. But NOW I find out the fucking router doesn't even work. It's apparently this exact model that has the issue. And only this one. I don't know if I could replace the firmware.
Oh what I meant is the shit I was watching on YouTube I had been watching like 10 hours ago. I completely forgot about it. And then it starts autoplaying because I hadn't closed the app yet, with how phones keep all apps open in the background unless you force close them.
Life is complicated because of people's differing needs and wants and opinions. But I agree that a baseline should be established of acceptance of all (except for those who desire to or do actually hurt others, they require special help and need to be in their own category). The reason transgender things are a little complicated, is because trans folk ask that they're respected and treated as their transitioned gender (the gender they have become). You don't have to believe us when we tell you who we are, but it's important that you respect us as we say we are. That, after all, is the baseline you yourself ask for.
If it's the reasoning behind transitioning you're curious about, it's not something that's fully understood. All we know, is that something, it might happen during fetal development, it might happen during early childhood, it might happen during mid-childhood, but it most likely happens before 10, changes a person, and internally, they become who they are not yet. Being who you aren't is akin to not existing at all, and so trans people suffer through gender-dysphoria. When people cite being transgender as a mental illness, they are referring to gender-dysphoria itself, which can be helped, if not cured. And here's the controversial part. The best treatment we know to gender-dysphoria is transitioning. What better way to treat feeling like you're in the wrong body, than by fixing the body you're in? You cannot change who you are inside, but you can change the outside.
It is a welcome loss.
EXACTLY. The entire fucking world is overpopulated. This is like one of the only good things going on right now on a large scale.
It could be a problem. That would likely force us to close our ecosystem, and vet all instances before letting them in.
