Theoretically, would you have considered it well-handled with it if a representative for Davidson had apologized for the harm instead of he himself giving it?

I’m not trying to rehash the arguments already made, I’m just trying to understand what the best course of action is to protect all harm to oppressed groups generally. And it seems to me that Davidson going onto the stage to say “I’m so sorry for the tic and didn’t mean it” also wasn’t the right move (for many reasons, including that the harm could’ve been accidentally repeated and that it would be harmful to his mental health to need to do that on such a huge stage). This solution in the long-term would require always having someone around Davidson to perform this act if needed, which has practicality issues… But it’s the best I can think of until we have a world where people understand the harm of racism and TS separately and as they (unintentionally) intersect.

I think I’m looking for such a solution because a lot of the analogies about ‘saying sorry when you didn’t mean to or couldn’t control it’ miss the quantity->quality dialectic. From what I’ve gathered, this would be a major impact on his life to apologize consistently for things he doesn’t want to do but come out anyways. If it were once a week (like most analogous examples stated here seem to me), I don’t think there would be as strong of feelings against a required apology. But it seems that this could be a ‘multiple times per hour’ thing, which just is an entirely different situation. The harm to others is equivalent and directly related to the amount it happens, but the harm to himself is likely not linear and become exponential once it takes up more than 1/10 of his day to explain himself and apologize.

Nothing to add, just glad to be here for this one. Gonna send it to the party chat and see if we can put it on some propaganda posters for fartin or somethin

Lol “China and India” sounds like “China and Albania” to me. “China + Scranton” feels just as true

On the other side: what other option is there than that this is rehearsed and planned ? Is there anyone in the world that thinks that the robots spontaneously did this?

Don’t apologize, just explain that peeing yourself is better than hangovers

I drink a full glass of water with any alcoholic drink. I pee like a ton, but that’s an excuse to leave convos I don’t wanna be around too or just mingle more around other people instead of being stuck. Also let’s me walk around instead of just sitting the whole time. If people say “you keep leaving to go to the bathroom” I can also be perfectly honest about why and they just say “oh that’s kinda smart”

Its amazing that this only shares like 3 sounds with Yuri Gagarin and yet does feel similar. Cadence and syllables or something…

Yeah, the big difference in uptake is really integration. People can see inidivudal working programs and see the value, but the moment it interacts with another (which they also use) it exponentially increases in perceived value. The fact that these slop toasters are integrated with Chrome or Outlook is what makes them sellable. So the free variants are going to have to find some way to beat that, to be even more integrateable and universal… but I can’t imagine the answer to that problem.

Awesome work comrade, this is some dedication and could legitimately improve so many lives. I’m not transfemme or in need of this (though I am annoyed by how much I have to shave), but I think I could probably make one and bring it around to lend to any friends or comrades who would want!

There has to be a pun to find here about Hair or lack thereof with Yuri Gagarin, Yuri Hair-gone-n?

Just finished chapter 5, and I had forgotten that I’d already read ch5 a while ago. But very powerful, and I think, instead of analyzing it as “being too tired or exhausted to care about coming near antisemitism” (sort of what he says directly) we should analyze it as a sort of argument to prove that antisemitism as Europeans invented it is just not a thing outside of European racist circles. Antisemitism as a material force broader than individuals is not relevant to these discussions. It is superseded, which is obvious in the material reality that are imposed the people of the various groups, highlighted in this book. So the tactic is not useful to keep announcing our anti-antisemitism, we must focus on the current relations and how the European tropes should be ignored as European

The description in chapter 2 of the only acceptable people to be shown to a western audience “if he was a wolf, he must be defanged” felt like a high-brow Citations Needed by a Palestinian expert. Good stuff.

Also appreciate the way he utilizes his definition of humanity/inhuman as well as his desire to become human (feels like Fanon sitting in the background nodding along)

Oh shit I hadn’t seen this group. I’m gonna catch up, I’ve had this book on my ereader for a while but only to like chapter 3

Present an increased risk

Wtf, there’s no way this is a real attempt at understanding lol.

I am going to make a claim that I can’t back up but am 99% sure of anyways. This many arrows can only be distinguished by idealism rampant. Any materialist analysis cannot have this many arrows

I get the feeling this is valuable somehow, based on the effort and the connections, but I think you could make this much more readable by connecting some of the dots in a comment lol. I’ve tried to follow and I’m kind of lost

I am once again asking hexbear to use a more rigorous definition of fascism: https://redsails.org/really-existing-fascism/

What this means for an equivalent in feudalism is interesting, but an odd question once the definition is more rigorous
