I think you don't understand biology. When it comes to reproduction, most species of course only have large gamete and small gamete. So reproductive roles are largely a true dichotomy. The distribution of primary and secondary sex characteristics is bimodal though.
I do not have to agree with any of your made up claims. You not understanding human reproductive anatomy is your problem not mine. I am happy to help you understand but I will not be agreeing to any misunderstandings you make.

So how would you respond to CAIS?

Before you even respond- you can either say they're a man from chromosomes and gamete production, but then you have to say "some men have vaginas." If you say they're a woman based on external anatomy, you have to say "some women have testicles"

If the organization is canvassing for those candidates how is it a grift? If anything shouldn't you just shut up and let them do the canvassing to help dsa dem candidates? Even if you hate them you could just not bring it up?
Destiny on stream said that a vote for AOC over Vance in a hypothetical election would be a 55/45 decision. Now he's using her image to grift money from libs? Here Destiny and I debated on the issue of whether AOC is "economically illiterate".

Here's the problem. You made this statement a little bit ago. In it you directly called the elements he was pulling socialist- which precludes a maximalist definition of socialism that you're invoking now. You have two options:
Replying to @twithemad
The real socialists, who organize the unions, schools, DSA, Queer Marxists, antifa, have a word to describe liberal socialists, reformists, Democrats, and all non-revolutionary people: fascist. No liberal socialist are resisting. This is the real world, not your theories

1. you can either retract that any of the elements Rawls invokes in liberal socialism are socialism at all. 2. state ownership and cooperatives ARE socialism, Rawls just invokes principles that make the liberal aspects of his philosophy override socialism.

if you pick 1, you've conceded that liberalism can include economies that are primarily state and coop owned. if you pick 2, all you're saying is that it's less socialist than liberal but is still both. so which is it?

Im sincerely doubting your ability to read at this point. Its surprising that you have any interest in ttrpgs. Does your group have to read the rulebooks out loud for you or do they draw pictures in crayon for you to interpret?
Your dumb ass didn't prove anything, nor did you provide any definitions or how it relates to socialist activism or capitalism today. Socialism: "a system of society or of group living in which there is no private property" merriam-webster.com/dictiona…

I just got reminded of a really salient example of Hasan amplifying people who dox other people. Bad Empanada. Best documented case was directing people to the personal information of people who did worked for a PAC. I think Hasan even showed parts of it on stream.

Can you show me proof of this? Yep

I wouldn't disagree that the US has done a lot of unnecessary interventions that have resulted in death and leaving a place worse off. Pretty sure if we look at our contemporaries though- they also have a big count. What makes the US uniquely bad?
Replying to @CentristMadness
The US has killed 25million in interventions and with proxies since 1946 at the low end.

I wouldn't consider myself a supporter, but he's been through similar in the past- and stopped directly campaigning with candidates after backlash in Nebraska. Instead he organizes groups that canvass. So yes? Hasan is too ego driven to play that more supportive type role
Do a certain sex pest supporters think if he was getting all this attention like Hasan he would be better to handle this situation? It would be worse.

It really is interesting to see that people have such a visceral reaction to me calling myself a liberal socialist. I would argue that despite people treating it that way, liberalism isn't meaningfully tied to capitalism.

A lot of liberals are pro private property of course- but it isn't a universally agreed upon topic. And I think socialism's acknowledgement of personal property is a pretty meaningful way to calm a lot of people's fears about the private property arguments.

Some big things about liberalism are our understanding of the social contract, codification of rights, and commitment to democratic pluralism. None of these things are contrary to socialism.

Probably the last I'm going to address of any of this for a bit- but it's especially rich considering some of the comments and quote tweets I've gotten.

Wait- were Republicans really so horny from grindr being down that they publicly posted Hasan man-meat? Like I hate the guy but dude should sue the fuck out of them or something.

Honestly? The best strategy is just to ignore people like this. They will never be happy with incremental gains in trans rights and safety. Their whole political project is fundamentally a joke- we should aim to scrap for whatever is reasonable when and where we can instead
well it turns out give democrats a choice of "capitulate to fascism" or "support minority groups" they'll always end up capitulating to fascism. a shame they don't stand with the trans community, can't blame trans people that can't bring themselves to support democrats
