  • I trawled through your profile a bit, enough to see that you’re reasonably well meaning, but both steeped in biased propaganda and having issues from the many broken systems in the US.

    My question however is how you believe that Trump will make your life better?

    From my perspective (from Europe), you’re exactly the type of person Trump loves grifting off of. Last time he did a lot of killing off lower middle class jobs, plundering your workers rights, protections and wages, mismanaging or dismantling support systems like healthcare, infrastructure, disaster readiness, while also increasing taxes on you. Oh, and also bumbled through the pandemic and disaster responses causing more than a million unnecessary deaths.

    He also openly broke the law, got very questionable payments coinciding with odd policy changes, and leaked/sold national secrets not only betraying the institutions, but the nation itself.

    He’s also a known adulterer, liar, slanderer, prideful cheat.

    So that would seem to disqualify him as a good pick for either policy, statesmanship, patriotism, or moral reasons.

    The only remaining reason then seems to be feelings, no?

    Feel free to tell me what Trump does better than Biden, for your life and/or for the nation, or whatever other perspective is more important for you.


  • Covid had plenty of travel restrictions, took less than a week to set them up. There’s already issue with people being falsely flagged as terrorist or other no-flight risk, and with some of the anti-leftist rhetoric it’s not a big leap to make. Also it’s entirely in line with Russia labelling LGBT as terrorists, which several GOP/MAGAts are breathing heavily over.

    I hope you’re right, I just don’t see anything but decorum stopping them, and they’ve repeatedly thrown that out the window.






  • Sexuality develops at around the age of 6-8, body and self identity starts a couple years before then.

    I’m not a child psychologist, but I’d make a guess that trans realisation in children are rare before the age of 3, but after that are mostly a question of maturity, support of environment, and how harsh social norms are.

    Also, aren’t you still legally a child up to the age of 18? I’m pretty sure I’ve heard that sexuality and identity develop before then.

    Oh, and in case you missed that part, trans isn’t about sexuality, it’s about identity; fitting in your own body, in your presentation of yourself, in how you are treated by others. Sexuality is it’s own separate beast, especially with all the stigma about it.
