Because I generally interact with people who are uncomfortable being assigned traditional gender roles, it's more comfortable to think of them as their biological sex--male or female, so that I am not projecting gender stereotypes on them

That happened lmao. You just made this the fuck up

In a near consensus, dozens of Wikipedia editors involved in the discussion said they believe the ADL should not be cited for factual information on antisemitism because it acts primarily as a pro-Israel organization and tends to label legitimate criticism of Israel as antisemitism.

Yup

Saying something that may be perceived as offensive and then later realizing you probably should have said it differently is totally different from saying the same thing unabashedly with zero self-awareness

There are something like 130 species of marsupials native to South America, and they're pretty much all different types of possums. The fossil record indicates marsupials may have diversified first in South America, then spread to Australia through Antarctica (when all 3 continents were part of Gondwana).

The monito del Monte is the closest relative of all Australian marsupials, but it lives thousands of miles away in southern Chile.

Are you talking about Joe Lieberman and the ACA and then Manchin and Sinema in 20-22? The fuck do you mean "always?" They're constantly fighting back against the Republicans
