And their scare tactics worked so well that now people voted for the Republicans to remove "Obamacare" even if they need it to live...

So ignorance is also part of the answer sadly

No one’s making you do anything

Just like no one is forcing you to be an ahole, yet here we are ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Exercise and self-control

Said the user cussing out everyone in this thread lmao. The irony is as high as your lack of awareness

Can you block me too? I’d hate having to read more hissy fits from such an insufferable ahole like you lmao

"I know this post is specifically about how trans people existence has ZERO impact on my life...so how can I still make it about myself? In a way that makes ME be the victim too?"

That's what you wrote. Almost a skill how the whole point flew over your head

In this moment of rising tensions and with a lot of countries turning to populist right wingers (if not straight up fascists), spineless liberals who only care about money are not going to provide any effective leadership for anyone.

I too am very confused and would like to know

I've also heard of the dessert spotted dick.

By the same logic, I assume this is a Spock'd cock?

[–] gravityowl@lemm.ee 4 points 8 months ago

Absolutely. I was thinking specifically about intersectionality when I wrote that, but misogynoir also applies.

I didn't want to simply write "that's intersectionality" and leave though, that's why I wrote about a more practical example instead

Its a rhetorical question

No, it wasn't. It wasn't rhetorical. You were being racist and biased in your question and now trying to hide behind rhetorics. You think you're the first person with bias I've seen who's trying to "I was joking!" his way out of their bigotry? Lol

for you to see the flaw in the picture painted by the "meme"

There is no "flaw" in the comic. It's showing the VERY REAL difference in treatment among white and black people

Look at the graphs for single motherhood

Maybe you should actually read the article before asking me to look only at a specific portion of the whole story. Especially since, at the very beginning, the author herself wrote

But a growing literature is demonstrating how the impact of single parenthood and family structure on children varies by racial group, including evidence that Black children experience smaller single motherhood “penalties” for some outcomes, like education.

So, once again, your comment was poorly thought out. The article you yourself shared, was exploring HOW they differ and it even talked about possible socioeconomic reasons for why there are differences. What it didn't do, is carrying out a census to show if indeed black men are more likely to leave their families.

And now, please stop trying to wiggle your way out of your bigoted comment. I don't care about such sad attempts. Bye

If you have no data about the "fact" (I wish I could highlight even more how much that is NOT a fact) and are asking users to provide evidence that supports that to you, maybe the question is not legit then, is it?

[–] gravityowl@lemm.ee 66 points 8 months ago (4 children)

I think it's both. It probably starts with gender discrimination (as the medical field highly favors men. Look at the differences in how we are taught about heart attacks for men and women for example) but then on top of that, it adds the racial discrimination.

Black women (and especially queer black women) are among the most discriminated groups sadly

No, you most definitely did not get it
