  • This is not a myth. There may be regions where it's not the case ofc but communicating that one is gay in Muslim countries doesn't typically end well.

    Some countries have protections for transgender people, but none have protections for gay or lesbian populations (please mention any that do if you disagree).

    "Living as a woman" if you like men is fucked up and is the same as death ime; gender dysphoria and being denied the experience of embodying the gender you view yourself as is something that's linked w completed suicide; it's the same reasoning why GAC is life-saving intervention and why trans people being denied GAC spikes suicidality and attempted/completed attempts amongst transgender populations. Just because some of them are more trans affirming, doesn't make these countries any less of a death pit for the rest of us who aren't trans.

  • Is this legit? Flying a pride flag would get you killed in most Muslim countries.

  • That gives me some hope. Either outcome works for me. Either china making more ram in 5 years (and exporting it, not at insane prices...), and/or the AI bubble popping and lowering prices that way.

  • Thanks.

    Will this make ram more available/cheaper?

  • Explain

  • Not sure what the most likely, favourable outcome is supposed to look like atp.

  • Hmm. Doesn't seem like it'll be good news for the average person afterwards then. But perhaps when the bomb goes off computer (ram) prices can go down(?).

  • I don't really get what the punchline is. It's not sustainable seems to be it, but it doesn't seem likely to be destroying OpenAI or Anthropic etc, which is what I want to happen.

  • European colonies and the Caliphate had slaves but the rest of the world didn't, and even then there were long stretches of time prior where slavery wasn't a thing (though this is region dependent). Slavery in indigenous communities is also not something I've heard of (prior to colonisation, obviously).

    Private capital has always existed everywhere (always i.e. the past 500 years). It's hard to imagine what you've never seen

  • The US spends on private socialism?

  • Technically they would do the same thing for billionaires and anti-immigrant propaganda too if that was the case since Jesus was with the poor people and he didn't care about treating people as "immigrants" or "illegals", but they don't even follow their scripture.

    It's a joke.

  • If you've seen trump long enough you'd know he always makes excuses for everything. He doesn't need Biden for it. It's just one convenient excuse; he has an endless supply.

  • Who's winning, if anyone at all?

    Going by government, it's only a ~25% difference; domestically it's twice as worse in USA, but that's not what governments are concerned about.

  • Can't blame them tbh. Reads like sci-fi even if you want it.

    There are no countries where private property is abolished.

  • Yeah but all the het shit isn't "inappropriate"? Do gay parents try to hide each other from their kids cause they're "not appropriate"? Stop over-sexualizing the LGBT community to the extent where it comes off as a weird fetish.

  • Does this apply to, say, purchasing a house?

  • No they're not, they have entirely different interests compared to the average man.

  • What form(s) of hierarchy do you believe is necessary or helpful, and why?

    Can you introduce me to Anarcho syndicalism?

    Thanks for the mondragon example and quotations, I've saved this for future reference.

  • "capital flight", I wonder if this has actually ever happened.

    Though even if it does, they could just introduce taxes nation-wide, and then if billionaires leave the country then they can simply do things like making overseas billionaire Americans pay up (they already do stuff like this iirc, just the uber-rich get away with it).

    I'm not sure if them leaving the country would even be a bad thing, since billionaires aren't the backbone of the economy to begin with, they're the stain. Good example is how housing price surges are literally always because of the ultra rich.

  • I thought anarchism was against hierarchy? Like isn't that the point of anarchism?

    How does a person who organizes logistics differ from a manager?

    Please elaborate.
