Comment on Elon Musk’s Grok Twitter AI Is Actually ‘Woke,’ Hilarity Ensues

Let me preface by saying that I myself am not making a political statement, just a quick retort/correction:

“…Seems they [biologists] have achieved something like a consensus on the matter [trans women are women]. I don’t see anything inherently political”

No, that’s not a scientific statement, it’s a sociological one, which makes it intrinsically political.

We, as a society, or a large enough group, can come up with a consensus belief that trans rights are human rights and that we can collectively treat other people by the gender role of their choice.

But biologically speaking, being trans doesn’t change ones chromosomes. Which is why I think it’s misguided to say that trans issues are actually questions that hard science can answer, they aren’t.

Which, ironically, is why Elon’s latest moronic gambit is failing (by his metrics), because the online culture he used to as a dataset to train it, has collectively agreed that trans women are women.

He probably should have trained it with TruthSocial’s cesspool instead.
