Moderation Questions
The last iteration of the moderation discussion thread was a complete disaster. Numerous attempts to keep it on topic fa
Yes. Those words are often used together anyway (delusional thinking"). But to say the very fact that they think they have a gender identity at all,much less one that doesnt match their biological sex is "objectively false" is the heart of the issue. I think people need to take a higher up look at the forest rather than try and look at individual trees. Look at the purpose of t
Stating this doesn't seem to me to imply that anyone has a mental illness.
Looking at it from the opposite side, I don't have a gender identity - do you think that means I am mentally ill?
Lol. You should stop trying to bring personal stuff into this discussion. As I said, it's inappropriate. It would be as if I suggested you must be a hurt individual who is bullied all day in real life so your only outlet from your daily submissiveness is to be rude on the internet. That wouldn't be nice.
You should not ban good posters

Can you please point me to WHERE IN THE RULES denying the existence of gender identities (which isn't the same as denying the existence of trans people) is not allowed in this forum?
Mod question: if i deny the existence of ANY gender identity that the left just invented, that's a bannable offense? if we are instead allowed to deny the existence of "two spirit" as a gender identity, and not other gender identities, where in the rule can i find the list of the protected gender identities i can't deny exist?

Im not going to continue to go over this issue with you. Ive already explained it. The overall meaning of your posts is clear. You should quit trying to wordsmith your way around the prohibition on expressing what your obvious feelings are.
By denying the existence of gender separate from sex, you are, in fact, saying to all transgender people that "it's all in their head" and they suffer from delusions. That is the very thing that is prohibited in this forum. You are welcome to your opinion. But that opinion, contradicted by the major medical associations who deal with this subject matter, is not welcome here.
Yeah gender isn't a real thing. It's a social construction. There is no "gender center of the brain" and that's why people don't suffer traumatic brain injury and think they are a different gender-- unlike with language where people can suffer traumatic brain injuries and lose the ability to speak or process language. (these are called Wernicke's and Broca's areas)-- what is the gender area called?
So I'll take my ban now. You can't force us to accept pseudoscience.
Browser could increase the dramatic effect for the boy that calls ban.
But who cares LB, as you also claim nationality is a social construct and we don't allow discrimination based on it. No one GAF about this distinction.

Umm.....we discriminate based on nationality all the time. That's why different countries have different visa requirements.
But for sure there is definitely also no nationality part of the brain.

But yeah-- if the requirement is that we accept something that just isn't true then I refuse to do that. I like posting here but I'm not going to pretend like the emperor is wearing clothes to do so.
I was wondering what happened to Lucium.
I take it he was banned for challenging current progressive groupthink norms on gender identity (that probably no one will believe in 5 year always, because they are so incoherent)? And now LB is threatening to self ban out of principle over this?
Well, I hope things can be resolved without anyone being banned or leaving, as you are 2 of my favorite posters. Always appreciate thoughtful posters who bring more to the table than just vacuous moral outrage (Trolly and Victor, I am looking at you right now).

The fascist ant farmer is in your top 2. Quelle surprise.

I was temp banned because apparently using the word deluded to refer to trans people is considered calling them mentally ill, and that's against forum rules. And that's even after i repeatedly had wrote previously that i don't think trans people are all inherently mentally ill (which is why i dont think "trans care" should exist and it isn't a medical condition).
But yeah-- if the requirement is that we accept something that just isn't true then I refuse to do that.
This is a giant tangent, but I suspect most successful populations require exactly this for purposes of psychological wellbeing and social cohesion, whether it comes in the form of religion, or ideology, or whatever. But yeah, it makes the world a much duller place IMO when individuals with low amounts of agreeableness aren't allowed to step outside the magic show and point out reality every once in awhile.
Also, I am of the opinion modern day progressive ideology is so incoherent and incompatible with basic human nature and psychology, that it doesn't have much of a future. As opposed to religions like Islam and Christianity, which say a lot of things that are clearly factually untrue, but are very pschologically compatible with the human condition, and so have much more staying power.
"Say a lot of things that are factually untrue" presumably being a euphemism for group psychosis.
Don't let the door hit you on the way out.
I'm referring to Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 which prohibits discrimination in hiring, promotion, discharge, pay, fringe benefits, job training, classification, referral, and other aspects of employment, on the basis of race, color, religion, sex or national origin.

So say the rest of it. What is the cause of trans people?

I'm not threatening to self ban. I'm saying that gender is social construction and Browser is saying that that isn't allowed. So I expect him to ban me.
