I believe Robespierre had lead a period of time known as the "reign of good times and normal vibes" where they all formed committees to talk out and mediate the the problems of the system they lived under.
Did they forget that this one was passed as a law?
As in beyond that point it wasn't "merely an interpretation" that can be overturned like many of the social progress cases the Warren Court had made.
The Lavender Scare overlapped rather heavily with the Second Red Scare.
That's the same thing they'd say to a cancer patient.
The lengths I go to avoid swimming in public pools are unprecedented.
The difference being that Covid took a scientific breakthrough to make a vaccine for (as various factors about the virus were unprecedented) while flu variants are very much a known thing as far as virology goes.
The feds already have a reserve of human-safe H5N1 vaccines, the only thing preventing them from using that when SHTF is ideology. It will be both completely prepared for and completely preventable.
Finnestride is a gateway drug, it was almost inevitable that I had to move on to something harder.
The whole point is to remove the legal backing of the orders such that anyone who isn't already not complying out of a sense of morals but is enough of a mook to stop because "it's law" also stops complying.
The whole game is to bluff people into complying with any shit they want preemptively because there's no way in hell they'd get such policies through official channels.
Every so often I hold a microsd card and I think about how much storage is on that pinky-nailed sized $20 device. Compared to ancient hard drives it is one of the few things that makes me remember "oh shit I live in the future".
Call me jaded but I am not predisposed to take the NYPD at their word.
People seem to forget about the innocent until proven guilty part, the raw amount of perjury with the theater surrounding this person is mind-numbing. If he makes it out of this he will be come a billionaire out of defamation alone, almost all mainstream news sources treated his guilt as a foregone conclusion with barely an "allegedly" in sight.
That or we'd overspec into stem education and neglect humanities until we get a whole generation of genius niche engineers who will sit down and gladly explain the most eugenicist viewpoint you've ever head from a living human in your entire life the moment you ask them a single question related to social issues...
Oh wait.
Another Bing reskin. Put it with the Duckduckgo, Ecosia, and the others.
If you want something that actually operates on something new under the hood consider https://marginalia-search.com/ which operates out of Sweden (though has a feature set more resembling early to mid 00s google).
Giving them more than two senators might lead to a senate that isn't perpetually gridlocked. That makes them dangerously close to being able to pass progressive legislation instead of nothing but mandatory funding bills with 37 pages worth of riders and pork.
To be honest, not really. Call me isolated but idea you are describing sounds more like a bunch of tactless mooks making asses of themselves than an existential threat. Shame that poisons the well on using egg in a self-referential context since that's the more benign definition (and the one transfems use more, anecdotally - but since when has anything transfems done online ever not been reappropriated in bad faith?). Still I can tell now that this is one of those arguments on the internet where about two people have a disagreement about something and don't realize they have two entirely separate definitions of a word until 14 comments down.
That's a fair point of view, but I am still thrown that most people see the word "egg" as something outsiders use exclusively to coerce or out people since by the time such discourse reaches me it has devolved into people saying to never even consider the idea of respectfully discussing the idea of transing genders with anyone (rather than being a shorthand for "before I realized").
Anecdotally I reached a stage in figuring things out where I knew what I was but was to batshit terrified to tell anyone, and anyone even considering discussing such a thing around me would've felt like a lifeline bordering on divine intervention. Instead I unintentionally played gender-identity chicken with a whole friend group who believed in the egg prime directive for like 8 months because my whole life is a long stream of sitcom-esque idiot plots.
Unfortunately the internet has a tendency to do whatever it wants with words, especially neologisms.
Unfortunately the blowback of such discourse in practice is just people giving me grief for trying to use the word as a shorthand to "me pre-realization" and indirectly calling me a creep if I even mention considering transitioning in any direction in a passive way because even being compared to a trans person causes certain people to damn near flinch reflexively.
What I am most confused by is people implying that it's immoral to even consider asking someone (irl you'd just use your words - have you considered it? - the idea that the word "egg" implies that being trans is rigidly prescribed from the outside from some tactless strangers trying to blindly out other strangers rather than two peple who know each other politely asking one-on-one in a respectful conversation is kinda wild to me - am I just confused because I managed to dodge significantly stupider online discourse elsewhere and am instead taking this literally?).
Also do you think term "egg" only applies to people "suspected of being women"?
