The texture bothers me.

Estrogen doesn’t make someone a bottom. A lot of transfems are bottoms, but not because of estrogen.

I think that even people who are dissatisfied are affected by it, because they also have propaganda affecting their ideas of how to make things better.
For example, a large part of MAGA’s appeal is blaming people’s problems on immigrants and promising to do something about them.
Others simply think that there is nothing that they can do.

I don’t think antidepressants or therapy are to blame. It’s propaganda that’s to blame. Americans are flooded with propaganda to an extreme degree and to a large extent, they believe it.

I think it’s because of societal expectations for men, which are generally broken down more in LGBTQ spaces. Maybe you could hang out with LGBTQ+ people (even as a cis het person). I think most would be accepting of you and care about you, as long as you are accepting of them.

I had sort of the opposite as a trans lesbian. I thought that I was just really attracted to girls, but it turns out some of that was me wanting to be like them.

If it were government controlled, it would be accountable to the people, to the extent that the government is democratic (ideally, much more than it is now), and would also be run as a service rather than for profit.

In the short term, I think that collectively being Karens about it would be to reverse the pressure, by steering the monopolists away from oppressing us. Because they are mainly motivated by money.
In the long term, take away their monopoly power.

I meant pressing the payment processors, like those prude activists are.

Just because they always have been doesn’t mean it’s good. It’s definitely not good for private companies to have monopoly power like that. That power will only be used for their gain (and our collective loss).

I am a strong believer in democracy. I don’t think that the answer to a bad government is to reduce the power of the government, because that power will inevitably go to undemocratic institutions. Only the government is accountable to the people. So even when the government is currently controlled by people I dislike, I still want more things to be brought under the power of the government rather than privatized.
The answer to bad government actions, in my view, is to fight for a more democratic government, and zealously advocate for good ideas among the voting population.

Since this is caused by activist pressure on the payment processors, perhaps a grassroots activist campaign of our own could change their mind. Especially if we threaten to stop using their services in favor of any competitor that allows all legal purchases.

In theory, crypto could be good for this, but crypto is used (and designed) more as an investment than a transaction tool.
Also, the issue here is not centralized currency under a government, it’s centralized payment processing under monopolistic private companies. Crypto is not required to solve that, all that is needed is an alternative payment processor.

I’m not a lawyer, but from my understanding there’s actually no legal obligation for them to delete US citizens’ data, but they generally do it anyways to avoid creating backlash that would lead to regulation.

I think there’s something deeper to not being able to remember them, like the brain not writing memories of them or something. Then again, my memory is particularly bad and some aspects of it are completely non-functional, so that could explain my experience.
