What do you believe that most people of your political creed don't?
-
It makes me uncomfortable to state my personal pronouns. Years of growing up as a woman on the internet makes me not want to reveal my gender, even when it's obvious (like in person).
-
DNA based proofs are pretty undeniable unless you have a twin.
-
I don't think that's quite right. It's more like referring to him by another title such as "a friend of mine" or "a person I met" etc.
-
Is it your political creed commonly against immigration?
-
I have met one person (in real life) who uses she/he pronouns. I asked if I can call her they and she said no. I don't know what to make of this, personally, as I'm unable to understand it, but I do try to abide by her request. I suspect she is an outlier though.
-
It's not necessarily true. I mean you could be framed with your DNA. I'm not arguing that it's plausible, just not absolutely undeniable. For instance, I would bet dollars to donuts that somebody has tried to frame someone else using their DNA.

I've been thinking of starting some sort of group to help with that goal-- would you be interested? I'm not sure what we could do, but I want to do something, you know? I figure the best impact I can have is to convince other people that I mostly agree with to adopt this approach, which is what I envision the group could help with.
-
Interesting. That could work. Feels a little draconian though.

How it's possible that the political movement that aim for the benefits of the 99% is unpopular by definition?
Identity politics may be unpopular by definition.
But the leftist movement is by definition a popular movement, and tons of alienation are needed to make people stop supporting themselves and support the 1%
-
I don't like racism against white people or sexism against men. Do I think they're less urgent or worrying than bigotry directed at other groups? Sure. There's less hate against men and whites compared to other demographic groups, and bigotry against them simply doesn't have the same social or political impact due to current systemic racism and sexism being directed at other groups. But bigotry is still bigotry, and I don't like bigotry against anyone.
-
China and DPRK strongly restrict immigration, whereas there are lots of neoliberals advocating immigration for free market reasons
-
I'm a lefty artist (video) and pro-A.I. That is to say, I don't believe training generative models on any information constitutes copyright infringement when the model is sold. The abstraction to latent space is sufficiently transformative.

He means who do you circlejerk with on tinternet
-
you can't learn much about leftism from the USA
-
The alternative is barter
No. Never has been.

You still haven’t achieved that understanding. Ideology does not come about from ‘convincing’ or ‘swaying’ anyone. I once again suggest you to read Settlers to see why this thought process is flawed. I understand where you are coming from but the material precedes the immaterial
-
Very well, I'll look at it.
-
I don't like extreme leftists (they live in a bubble) but they've been right about everything and they are our best chance at resolving economic disparity
-
Found the millennial or Gen Z
'my truth' doesn't exist: there is fact and not fact.
-
Fair enough. I think you're right to question these things; people have very strong opinions with hard lines here, but I don't think there's always solid reasoning for why some things that may seem like an obvious hard line are considered one.
