Well speaking as a queer person I and many of my friends have had the pyramid cited to us to show why we would always be unhappy. The hierarchy is not an entirely flawed concept and in the broadest of strokes I agree with it. Which is why I only say it’s overrated, not inherently wrong. The hierarchy just falls apart rather quickly for GSM folks while being taken as fact by the general population.

The simple answer is catfishing, but this amount of time and effort dedicated to trying and be perceived as a woman seems like unrealized gender dysphoria and internalized racism. Their own self hate manifesting as external vitriol at out trans folk isn’t even remotely okay, but not unheard of.

Maslow is overrated.

Midsommar is an excellent film about exactly how this type of back-to-basics all natural anti-modern vibe can be a vehicle for fascism. I recommend going in without learning more if you haven’t seen it, but there is a lot of symbolism, foreshadowing and deeper meaning in easy to miss moments.

thats just as bad as judging someone for their sexual orientation

As a queer person and a mod on lemmy.world, no it absolutely is not. Not even close. Not even in the same ballpark. An identity is 100% not the same as willingly choosing actions. You can disagree with the broad statement but equating it to bigotry is wildly out of touch.

Please don’t use this analogy again.

Harm reduction can take many forms. I’ve always said eating the rich is vegan, but honestly so is punching Nazis. You don’t always get a chance to do one, let alone both but when you can, you should.

We basically still have eugenics, but slower and infinitely more painful, physically and mentally.

I wish you were wrong but fundamentally you’re not. I know my meager “I am sorry you have gone through all that” isn’t worth much, but I am.

The poorly phrased parts are a result of my frustration.

I understand completely and I appreciate your clarifications. This post won’t be removed and neither will any like it. Venting about the system that produces trauma for you and other is a legitimate use of this community. I will ask you to please try and steer away from death talk, but any amount of light that can be shown on this systemic problem is always a good thing.

I hope talking about it helps. Go in peace friend, I pray and wish you the best.

Reddit banned me for it, but I believe if these people can’t just live real lives or actually therapeutic happy lives then they should die.

Well, to be honest as a mod for the community, I do feel like it’s warranted since this falls under hate speech against the disabled. While this doesn’t read like a manifesto for harm but more of someone who has been neglected and harmed by the systems you describe. However that doesn’t change the fact that is calling for others to die. I am considering removing this post, but I don’t want to do so without a discussion of where you are coming from first.

Fundamentally what you are describing is eugenics, Hitler and the Nazi party spoke of ending the lives of “burdensome lives” and “useless eaters”, which is categorically abhorrent. I abundantly agree that the facilities for housing and care of group homes is woefully inadequate and a silent cruel epidemic that most either don’t know of, or willfully ignore. It’s an abhorrent, tragic and unacceptable facet of our civilization that I hope is improved with time and legislation.

Having said that, advocating for any particular group to die is always 100% not okay. An argument for the right to choose euthanasia isn’t the same as arguing to inflict it upon others. So I don’t want to remove this since it feels like an honest vent, BUT I do need the language be altered away from “They’re all basically living corpses” and “they should die”.

It’s hate speech. Arguments for their death is not acceptable here.

I guess it depends on what sort of data is in this 100 TB data set. And if I have any other tools at my disposal to transcribe the data into new mediums or any time adjacent knowledge for things that would happen in the next year.

If there was an accurate almanac, lunar calendar of events or current world/local history. Establishing myself as some sort of prophet, messiah or divine messenger should be possible. Once I establish that I can see the future, then I need to make a far flung prediction for my home time that “will be revealed when the time is right”.

Four important rules would needed to make it work.

• Primarily a foundational tennat not to alter my prophecy. I am the one and only prophet that will ever exist. Of course schisms and reformations will likely occur but so long as the “orthodox” faithful preserve my original writings it should stand the test of time.

• Secondly, depending on how my death occurs in “exactly one year”, I can work that in to the cannon as being recalled to the higher plane. Especially if this time death is flashy! Hopefully something like my body being ripped apart by the time stream. Nice big event that will be remembered.

• Thirdly, I protect my religious with good ole fashion reliable xenophobia! Whatever tools I can use to identify competing time travelers will be the sign of heretics and evil demons.

• Finally, that my tomb is to contain both my original manuscripts that are never to be touched or altered. And importantly, exact prophecies that are supposed to be opened prior to various major world events. If I can sprinkle a good one every 20 years or so then the faith should remain strong.

My sexuality is focused on receiving loving and romantic physical affection, and to a lesser extent, giving it. To my brain, affectionate physical contact is sex ITSELF, not a prelude. In practice, this means that I’m very attracted to kisses and don’t care about real sex unless I had a partner who wanted it.

This really spoke to how I felt for most of my life. With that in mind, I can not recommend Ace by Angela Chen high enough. It was a monumental awakening for me to finally understand why I dreaded sex but craved affection. There are many shades of asexual and she discusses them all. Many lifelong feelings I had were for the first time validated in that book. I obviously can’t guarantee it will have the same effect for you, but the way you talk sounds VERY reminiscent of my past self questions.

Knowing and understanding myself has led to the most successful, caring and loving relationship of my life where we agreed long ago that sex was off the table. Nothing but bliss, marriage and good vibes have followed. Even if you don’t see yourself described in those pages, I think it will give you a lot of the language to navigate what could be the next step.

Hope this helps! <3

As a trans disabled woman there are numerous ways in which threatens my ability to exist. And while that does make me angry at Trump and his supporters, I mostly view them with pity.

The MAGA faithful are victims or well orchestrated propaganda, using just enough of legitimizes complains of our late capitalist white supremacist patriarchal society but only to blame the wrong people. I have frustration at the farmers who are now critizing Trump since they didn’t think they would be hurt by his actions, but sympathy enough to understand they were tricked. I wish, hope and pray that they will leave the echo chambers that influenced them to look past his numerous severe faults and obvious corruption but logically I don’t see that happening for many.

While I am angry at all MAGA folk, the majority of which I feel were too focused on the day to day survival in our increasingly expensive world, I can understand. I believe them to both willfully ignorant and globbed to someone they didn’t understand. The harm he has caused was telegrpahed clearly years, months and days ago. But hating, excluding and diminishing them only lessens the chance of them understanding the lies told to them.

Remember, when someone asks “What would Jesus do?”

Going after all 4 cheeks is a valid response.

What she cites the bible for

Though she clarified that donations wouldn’t actually go to help those infected, White used medical imagery to add urgency to her fundraising plea during a pandemic. “Every single day we are a hospital to the sick, not necessarily the physically sick,” she said. “But we are a hospital for those who are soul sick, those who are spiritually sick.” White went on to suggest that contributors offer a $91 donation, citing Psalm 91, or “maybe $9 or whatever God tells you to do.”

What I cite the bible for

Matthew 21:12-13 Jesus entered the temple courts and drove out all who were buying and selling there. He overturned the tables of the money changers and the benches of those selling doves. “It is written,” he said to them, “‘My house will be called a house of prayer,’ but you are making it ‘a den of robbers.’

You wouldn’t download a corn would you?

Not all vegan cheese are equal, some are absolute garbage but many are delicious. Miyokos specifically is an amazing vegan mozzarella that I use for pizza all the time.

Nononono.

It’s that woke mind virus! Those infectious liberals have prevented true patriots from buying his shitty cars to proposely smash their fingers in the trunk.

Well turning to 4chan for advice is a good first step. I have high hopes for 'em!

Sheer delusion.

Happy November 96th everyone, the election is tomorrow and I still have hope that America will turn away from fascistic hate!

And I’m just sure that those Youtubers take his arrest as proof they were right all along.
