great new philosophy tube video
Transphobia is rampant throughout steem, and is reinforced by many people in positions of relative power. You know who you are. My question is, what would your arguments in it's defence be in light of this video?

My goodness the comments here are a cesspool. Of course, though, the subject matter would bring out bad people. Good video, like this guy a lot :)
turns out the same people who think free markets work also hate oppressed people. Can't be a connection there at all
"I got mine, so fuck everyone else" is a common 'free thinker' line.

Eeeeh, transphobia is a thing on Steem? You're the first to mention it that I see. Then again, I'm not trans nor do I talk with any trans person on the blockchain.
lmao look at that other failure that commented about me loving stalin, the soviet union literally slaughtered anarchists around the world and he is yelling about how I love stalin because I called him out on his transphobia
Dunno. One person is not a rampage. He did seem a bit strange with his Stalin-loving comment, but I just assumed you love Stalin for some reason.
he is definitely not the only person. I am using his as an example because he literally stalks any trans stuff I write.
I don't stalk you. We have common "friends", we have fun every time you post something idiotic like this post. You are a true joke and you have provided us with plenty of lulz. Thank you.
Interesting how stalking suddenly isn't stalking any more when you do it in a group.
There are people who follow him for whatever reason. Sometimes they tell me, hey look what that guy posted. It's called gossip, not stalking.
That's true, up to the point where you go and comment something about not wanting to discuss with that person.
If you don't, just don't. Would be the reasonable thing to do. What you do is a picture book example of stalking, simple fact.
I still have private logs of you calling Stalin a saint you dumbass . But who needs private logs, it's all over your comment history about how great Stalins USSR was
Hey, Trumpman, do you hate trans people? Not judging, just curious.
hey don't engage with fascists that's how it spreads
Where does it spread, to me? I like talking with everyone.
Go suck Stalin's dick that you love so much. But don't forget, he hated gays. I don't want to imagine what he would have done to trans people.
Unlike Stalin, no.
@trumpman is this one of the post you were referencing?
https://steemit.com/communism/@anarchyhasnogods/soviet-russia-was-not-communist-part-two-how-they-violated-the-economic-and-social-principles-of-communism-in-almost-every-way
That one criticises Stalin.
Oh, I'm not going to read a post about that topic. I have no interest. I just did a google search by name and topic, that is what popped up. I don't really have a horse in this race and I am currently streaming while talking with you.
I guess if @trumpman gets off his lazy ass and post the content he is speaking of his context might make more sense.
Just look at his comment history. It's full of comments like this one with videos or other material saying how great Stalin's Ussr was:
it's literally all over steem. Come over to my platform, run through the account @co-in if you really want to know more
All I saw was that you're setting up a mod team?
Edit: Ok, there's nothing related to the topic in the account. Is this some strange self-promotion thingy?
that's just an update post, there is an introduction post farther down or you can use the link below to join the discord
https://discord.gg/dVgYDq
There's nothing about transphobia in the introduction post ¬¬
Me thinks you're just a bit shameless. :3
it's not a platform about transphobia smh it's run by a trans person on steem and one of the systems is lgbt
https://steemit.com/shitpostsunday/@tygertyger/shitpost-sunday-1-dedicated-to-steemspeak
another example is somebody making an account with a name of an anti-trans slur and trying to mock us last week. You don't see it because you don't look.
Not sure where the original post on the event is, but that first link is a good enough reaction smh
are you claiming that I am anti trans ?
nope. I was claiming you were pro lgbt actually
ok sorry for snapping i was getting confused will edit the other answer then ...it's been a rough week apologies ..
no worries
"Not sure where the original post on the event is, but that first link is a good enough reaction smh"
I forgot where another more detailed post on the event was, so I linked your reaction to the thing. I was talking about the event itself. They are just playing dumb, it is a well known form of spam and abuse smh
I could have probably ordered it better though, sorry about that
@anarchyhasnogods it wasn't a post it was the Steemspeak server they were calling women whores , then talking about selling body parts, then using gay as derogatory term when @sapphic posted a somewhat suggestive banana picture in protest of their mouthing off. She was immediately banned . In protest of that I joined the server an posted a solitary banana picture PG - just the fruit and was banned as well .
yeah I knew what it was I'm just bad at explaining myself smh, busy af morning
Hmm, just curious, could you explain how "tygertyger" is an anti-trans slur?
So, he's saying that since misogyny is commonplace, people should not mind bananas exploding. Did people get mad about someone posting bananas exploding? What did it mean in the context?
@cryptosharon I am not a he but a she I am also part of the LGBTQIA community and part of the LGBT server on discord - My point was that someone got banned from the mentioned steemspeak server for posting a banana picture in protest of anti gay slurs. (the rest was edited out of my answer here as I misunderstood something )
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, I had understood that @tygertyger is an anti-trans slur. Maybe I misread. Just curious, are you trans?
no pan sexual
Just set your passwords to 0-0-0-0-0-0 and the world will fix itself.
You first.
People are people, people are stupid. People feel the need to play victims and make victims when things do not involve them personally. If people want to have surgery to correct what they feel is a physical defect, let them. It doesn't mean it is a worthy topic to make people get all irritated over. Just do you and let others do themselves. But bringing drama to the forefront as a topic, you open yourself up to whatever people feel like saying. If you don't have thick skin keep your nose out of public affairs.
Side note: Nice to meet you @cryptosharon, I could care less about this topic either way. I am not a Tran nor do I have any personal feelings about them. This thread overall just seems like shit stirring and drama making and is being responded to as such.
Well, trans people are particularly sensitive about their situations. Imagine being forced to live an eternal lie, where people get angry at you if you're not acting according to the "pattern" you must fit into. I'd be pretty irritated and trigger-happy, too, and I understand where posts like these are coming from.
Besides, most public dramas arise from rustled jimmies. This means that public affairs are filled with thin enough skins that every kind of sensitivity is triggered and chaos ensues.
Exactly, I have always said there should be some sort of test before people are allowed to use the internet.
Carry on.
Dunno why you think people should be born knowing by heart every slur and insult. I'm not aware of the trans situation because I've never been involved in it. If my ignorance offends you, then that's too bad. Someone intolerant complaining about intolerance.
I don't have anything against you, but your hostility breaks any veneer of diplomacy that might exist here.
LOL, I was just making a joke based on the number one trending thing on twitter, the news and youtube.
Hmm, not sure you picked the best moment to make the joke then 😂 fuck off my serious thread. :3
I am just saying that over all, the topic of Kanye's password is more important to the world than this topic. It's drama. Has anyone answered your exploding banana question or is this topic being exploded and censored as it continues?
You are a trans person that loves Stalin. Having any kind of meaningful discussion with you is pointless, much like having a discussion with a nazi Jew.
P.S.: Phobia is a Greek word from φοβια which means "fear of something". Nobody is afraid of trans people. You can trust me on this one cause guess what? I am Greek!
P.S: resteemed for awareness
@anarchyhasnogods
I find it very interesting that you denied in your comments your admiration for Stalin and Soviet Union, and yet this sentence of yours awfully resembles Marxist ideology which was based on the hypothesis that evil bourgeois was enslaving the proletariat, in the economic system where everything was oriented towards maintaining the working class poor and making rich people ever richer. I guess I don't have to remind you that communism and Marxism as an ideology were completely rejected by the end of the 1960s, as by far the most destructive economic and political doctrine that has ever been invented by mankind.
Unfortunately, during the 1970s, the Marxist ideology arose from the ashes under the mask of post-modernism, where instead of making the victim out of the working class, the focus is placed on creating allegedly oppressed identity groups (arbitrary formed based on their sexual/gender identity and gender expression as most convenient categories), by the evil oppressors from the "positions of power". The ultimate aim of post-modernists (or neo-Marxists) is to gain power by limiting the freedom of speech, which is achieved through calling any person who provides alternative view to theirs a transphobe, a bigot, and others made-up terms. This strategy has turned out to be particularly effective, because people, out of fear of being declared in such manner, accept playing their game and calling them by their preferred pronouns.
To conclude, personally I don't think that here on Steemit people are "transphobes", and especially not those people you referred to. I highly doubt that anyone cares at all about your biological sex, gender identity, gender expression and sexual orientation. You have the absolute right to be whatever you feel most comfortable with. And no one has the right to take that right away from you.
Now speaking for myself, the problem I have with all this is when people are trying to limit my freedom of speech by putting the "politically correct" words in my mouth. And I'm pretty sure most of the people would agree with me on this, if they had a courage to speak openly (but again, I'm speaking only for myself, because I cannot confirm this).
I will never conform to the twisted, radical left, post-modern ideology, and I will never restrain from speaking my opinion about things and from using any sort of words I find appropriate to do so.
Because I have the right to speak up my opinion, and you have the right to be offended, same goes vice versa.
Bigot
Not real. Communist politics were still going strong until the end of the 70s. Ever heard of May 68? The 1970s still had a number of national liberation movements. You just don't know what you're talking about, and can't understand that communist thought has multiple tendencies and dimensions to it, as well as having a conflicted but dialectical relationship with anarchist thought.
Go masturbate to your little black book of CIA propaganda. Communism has helped people liberate themselves from western colonialism around the entire globe. Marxism is responsible for the modernization of Asia, Africa and South America. It is Marxism, not capitalism, which has brought these people out of the darkness (which Western Imperialism cast them into). So fuck off with this most destructive bullshit.
Did Marxism cause WW1 or WW2? Did Marxism drop nuclear weapons on Japan? Did Marxism enslave Africa to fill its coffers?
More Peterson-nonsense. You still have his semen on your lips.
POMO and Marxism are, by essence, different and incommensurable. Anyone who has actually bothered to read Derrida, Lacan, Lyotard or the other 'big names' that are categorized under the nomenclature of 'post modernist' immediately understands that the concepts they work with are a break from classical Marxism.
This is not real. Peterson doesn't know what he's talking about. And neither do you.
Post-modernism, at its core, is a deconstructive theory which criticism grand narratives, which Marxism absolutely is (a grand narrative). They want different things. They are different. They aren't some conspiracy. Shut the fuck up.
There is no 'cultural marxist' conspiracy to try and end your little-bitch 'free speech'. Nobody gives a fuck what you have to say anyway, because its fucking ignorant and delusional. Marxists don't need to hide and call people names, because we can actually debate with you. But that's generally useless because you don't listen, don't know what you're talking about, and won't even realize when you've been proven wrong.
My ancestors were communists and Partisans for a very good reason. In that moment of time *(1850 - 1940) it was a good idea. And noble idea. The idea of justice as well.
The problem is that the technology changed since WWII and the whole logic of production and the establishment of values changed.
1900 - We need to plough the field in late autumn *(capitalist expert, value 0, common sense)
2000 - We need to introduce the Lys on the active site 256 on the enzyme XPZ in order to ... *(capitalist expert, value is infinite, the unique knowledge)
If we look at countless examples of Communist vs Capitalist economy *(not for the poorest countries) we will see the same pattern. Once the borders are opened for trading, the economy of communist country collapses in a year. Examples: HUN, YUG, ROM, BUL, ALB... And it takes decades to fix it up and re-establish modest living standard again.
Partially true. Again, my family was in Partisans during WWII and before.
The question is... Why all the people from Yugoslavia go to GER/AUT? Why all the people from TUN, MAR, ALG, LEB go to France? Yes, they tried to enslave us 50+ years ago, but now their system is way better.
Ok... May you give me one example. One country that is more successful in any measurable parameter in comparison with a capitalist counterpart?
We tested communism in Eastern Europe in many shades and versions.
The result was always the same: lagging behind in technology, not competitive products, irrational production of goods. Once the borders are opened, it brings emigration, import of foreign goods, terrible export/import ratio, inflation of currency and the poverty comparable to Africa. Seriously, we ate pigeons and sparrows!?
