Are you saying that women have a right to use the bathroom without biological men in the room?

Right. As far as I can tell it's not a matter of rights. It's just up to the community's sentiments.

When did humans first ask about what's real? It requires the idea of falseness, the ability to totalize, and some cultural conflict to insert as the c...

You're trying to sign your own death warrant. :confused:

Hollywood has gone to crap.

That doesn't cash out as a right, though.

The right to pee without any biological males around?

like a virus?

Do they have a right to use the women's changing rooms?

Alexander the Great was gay

Civil rights.

I finished ND with a newfound appreciation for Adorno. I really like this guy on a personal level, and I think his philosophy addressed issues that hi...

One could also argue that whoever owns the toilet should decide. If it's a public toilet, it belongs to the tax payers, so let them vote and decide ho...

What we were discussing is basic Hegel.

You'd need to spend some time contemplating Hegel. Do thought experiments where you delete (from existence) one pole of an opposition. Notice what hap...

This is incorrect, but I'm not interested in debating it.

No. This is just dialectics. Being and Nothing are two sides of the same coin, which Hegel identifies as Becoming. Being and Nothing seem to disappear...

Hegel's teleology has deep roots in Indo-european culture. Christianity has threads of it running through its whole history. Unrevised Marxism is basi...

The Grand Canyon is cool. Very touristy though.

We're crazy as fuck.

Huh. We're more woke than you guys, and I'm in a red state. Although, I have a feeling our medium and max security prisons are more violent than yours...

I'm not either. I'm glad they have an interdisciplinary team to make the decisions instead of the local mob.

You can contact your state legislature if you're concerned.

Ok :up:

No.

Because in Godzilla vs. Tokyo, Godzilla doesn't have a scratch on him when the coercive control, rape, and severe physical abuse started.

In my state each trans criminal is evaluated by an interdisciplinary team which decides housing based on safety and "other concerns." A trans-woman ch...

True. But men are more likely to engage in coercive control and stalking. Men are more likely to engage in sexual violence. Women sustain more injurie...

True. The evidence in the article I cited shows that men usually start it.

In my community, it can't be both. Defensive violence is not abuse.

But if you killed someone, that's going to be kind of difficult.

You're saying he was an ontological anti-realist. Did he see understanding as a continuously evolving thing that swings between oppositions?

Like with a gift card?

Yes. My point was that rare cases of ambiguity don't render the whole topic of biological sex ambiguous. It usually isn't difficult to determine. Have...

In any scene full of people, you can note the ways people are trying to exert control: expressing anger, asking for pity. Even apologizing can be a to...

Adorno was preoccupied with the 'thing-in-itself' problem via Kant. I think that's similar to the interaction problem? He thought the problem originat...

I didn't realize that. Thanks. I agree. :up:

:up:

That sounds reasonable.

But we know Plato grooved on the dialectics, so would he have really gotten mired in what Adorno calls idealism?

True. What's your opinion on pronouns? Do you know anyone who goes by "they"?

I know you're tri-sexual. You'll try anything. :grin:

Why is it bonkers?

I work in an emergency department, so I'm present at deliveries. :grin:

Do they? :lol:

Adorno agreed with Lukacs that the perspective you're describing is embedded in human consciousness, and its origin is in the concept of exchange valu...

One YouTube summation said that Family Guy and South Park have both expressed their condemnation of Disney's pandering. If The Simpsons does as well, ...

There's no way to control that.
