I think most of this is fine but I have a few issues and questions.

• No self-promotion without permission is too strict and too broad imo. I think this should be left up to individual communities
• What does genocide denial or minimization mean and what does it apply to? If someone comes in talking about white genocide in South Africa are we supposed to entertain that? Are we not allowed to laugh at them? What happens if someone comes in and says there are/were atrocities and human rights violations in places like Gaza or Xinjiang but that it’s not a genocide?
• “Support for regimes or ideologies that suppress basic human rights”. What does this mean? Basically every major country suppresses basic human rights to some degree. And what are ideologies that suppress basic human rights? If we’re talking about ideologies whose followers have suppressed basic human rights then that’s basically all of them. I think major clarification is needed here.
• Regarding violence and threats, specifically political violence. This basically means that people cannot talk positively about actions such as the recent Ukrainian drone strikes of military targets in Russia. Some clarification here would be nice because this basically means that a lot of news communities would have a very hard time here.
• Joking about violence I kind of agree with but at the same time people will joke about beating up political figures like Trump or Putin or Netanyahu. Would that not be allowed?

Thanks

Probably because Chris is basically a libertarian crypto bro. Doesn’t help that none of the shows he’s on (especially their flagship LUP) ever has any real dissenting opinions to what Chris has decided is acceptable.

Why are competitive advantages a problem for trans women but not for anyone else? Breanna Stewart (a cis woman) has a wingspan longer than most men taller than her, let alone the women she plays against. Is that unfair? Should we ban her from the WNBA? What about entire groups of people that have biological traits that give them a competitive advantage in certain sports over the rest of world? For example Kenyan and Ethiopian athletes from certain tribes that dominate long distance running in part because of biological advantages. Should we ban them?

And despite the physical advantages they might have, there is little evidence that trans women have some systemic advantage over cis women in sports results. This is a culture war issue fanned by right wing transphobes who hyper focus on a handful of absolute tiny trans women who have done well (out of an already small pool of trans athletes). And the result is that it also negatively harms cis women such as Caster Semenya, Imane Khelif, or even Serena Williams.

Funny you’re being downvoted. Apparently the government sending billions in subsidies to companies that offshore most manufacturing to China anyway is the free market. But China doing the same thing isn’t.

Silicon Valley which is also heavily subsidized by the US government.

I watched Pantheon recently and it’s really good. I love interesting and smart scifi shows like this and wish there were more. Anyone have any recommendations?

Also you can have your sperm or eggs frozen in case you do want to have kids in the future. Take control of your reproduction and fuck these conservatives.

Even Superman can’t see through lead. Which means we should all be ingesting as much lead as possible to stop the guvmnt from tracking us.
