sapient [they/them]

You should not be able to make a huge life changing decision like deciding to be cisgender until you’re an adult.

How many different “phases” do kids go through? Obviously not in all cases will this be a phase, but what if it is and an irreversible decision to proceed with cisgender puberty is made when they’re too young to fully understand it?

Clearly, the solution is for all people to be forcefully injected with puberty blockers (or for a more accurate comparison, “opposite sex” hormones) until they’re 18, because they’re too young to know if they’re cis.

This fake analogy quote was snark, hopefully clearly so, but the point remains >.<. Fuck transphobia - forcing trans kids to be treated as cis is dehumanising and kills people. People aren’t DeCIdInG To ChANgE ThEir GeNDeR because being trans isn’t “”“deciding to change your gender”“”. The level of ignorance and fucked up nonsense in your comment is fractal.

Breitbart? Really?

Oh not this fucking bullshit again. Urghhh

The absolute contempt for human life and dignity in this comment :/

Exactly. Poland itself is pretty damn far-right, and while they might be helping Ukraine and Ukrainians, this doesn’t mean their government is not borderline fascist. Someone else below (@TimeNaan@lemmy.world) provided this link documenting some severe human rights abuses against lots of migrants (some of these are also from the Belarus side too, it’s not just Poland).

Any situation in which a state denies access to people watching for such abuses - like this - is one that sends immediate and severe warning signs to me. Combined with the other stuff going on around LGBT+ free zones, well, it’s worrying imo >.<

Some of this stuff is even worse than what I’ve heard of the US/Mexico border, though it’s all pretty horrific.

I mean I have very negative views towards both concepts sooo ;p

Pretty sure Falun Gong is a cult last I remember.

Profiling happens on the server end, but the unique identification can happen either on the server end or the client end or both.

And it’s Meta. Their entire organisation is dedicated to manipulation, data collection, etc. - hell, they might do the profiling inside the app and only send results. What’s “realistic” is expecting them to spy on you, not giving an organisation like them any benefit of the doubt!

This is obviously not the case when your client could just directly request things within it’s resource limits.

Seriously, why would you give Meta the benefit of the doubt? These are just more datapoints to profile and analyze users.

Based haskell ;p
