    That’s actually really gross and an erasure of trans people from history. There are a lot of cases now and throughout history of trans people unable to come out but have personal records or accounts from those close to them detailing how they felt about themselves. Saying we shouldn’t suggest anyone who was never out was trans isn’t just taking an unbiased stance, trans people are deliberately and systemically pressured from not coming out and there’s cases of trans people who were out who have their identities erased postmortem. So contributing to that feels at best like giving up ground to people who want us dead and erased.

    You haven’t really proven anything. You say misandry is the problem with being a raging feminist. All I said was hating people who oppress you is not a bad thing. Also one of the “misandry instances”? So are all queer or women oriented instances just misandrist to you?

    Dom terms I’ve used: Majesty, Highness, Excellence, Liege, Master, Owner. Sub terms I’ve used: Pet, Toy, Slave, Bitch, Dog, Puppy, Kitty, Precious, Doll.

    Some terms like Maid work but that depends on how feminine you see the term. Another interesting one is Knight for like a service sub.

    I think Mexico is still providing them fuel but I can’t recall if they’ve been blocked from doing so atm. But yeah more countries should provide aid. I fear America will take a note from Israel’s playbook and block aid getting in similar to how aid is blocked from getting into Gaza

    Unfortunately the US is determined to make life hell for Cubans. The blockade has gotten worse and they’re being deprived of fuel and other necessities. Hell they can’t even get enough syringes for the covid vaccine they developed because of the blockade. So despite great advances in LGBTQ rights they are going to be starved out or possibly invaded in the near future.

    This feels a little defeatist. Obviously cyberpunk media is usually meant to be dystopian and bleak but a common theme among them is resistance. That’s part of the ‘punk’ in cyberpunk. Consider how prevalent hackers are in cyberpunk and one can realize that the robo-police can be shut down by someone with a keyboard. As for everyone being hyper-individualist and out for themselves, one could say the same about our world rn, or at least in much of the West but that’s because most people under capitalism are not class conscious. Building Marxism requires educating oppressed people on why their interests as a class are aligned against the oppressor class. It may seem impossible to create this better alternative to capitalism, especially in the context of a cyberpunk setting, but people thought the same thing about monarchy and feudalism. Just my two cents.

    If someone doesn’t feel empathy for Palestinians after we all saw tens of thousands of children get massacred for the crime of not being Israeli then they were never gonna be convinced through kind words. Also that second paragraph just isn’t true. Plenty of people, I might even argue that the majority of people, view Palestinians as “deserving of moral value” despite most of us not being Palestinian.
