Disrespectability politics!

They’re also misgendering Me. And they say they read My bio, so at that point you have to believe it’s intentional, right? Hm, someone who misgenders Me and attacks Me for My mental health, who refuses to behave civilly and instead posts one sentence inflammatory responses, all in defence of the armed forces. I think we may be dealing with a nazi.
I’m nonbinary. You’re referring to Me as “he”, but My pronouns are “They/Them”. Please edit your comment to avoid misgendering Me.
I mentioned trans people because I am trans. And because the very first Nazi book burning was of the texts from the Institute of Sex Research which concerned practices for trans healthcare. Attacking trans women was a high priority item on the Nazi agenda. And I paid attention to it, because all My articles are written from a trans perspective. People like Me have been speaking from trans perspectives for a hundred thousand years. If you have not seen discussion of trans people until recently, it is because until recently we have been silenced. I am not some cisgender person pushing a political agenda (What agenda???), I’m a person living My own truth and speaking to that truth. It’s clear you have a problem with that. Perhaps it would serve you better not to explain what your problem with talking about people like Me is.
The reply contains only 12 of My own words. The rest is links and direct quotes. Information that already exists out there, and some of it has existed for a long, long time. I’ve grown frustrated with the continued state of affairs after a hundred years of people ignoring these criticisms. I have become aggressive and impatient. I don’t think I could write something in My own words which approaches these issues without rage, without removing all that is unique in My interpretation of events. If you think a better article can be written, I invite you to write it.
Antiwar sentiment is not new, and pro-trans sentiment isn’t new either.
The central purpose of Australia’s WWI centenary celebrations is to saturate the population with militarism and patriotic propaganda in preparation for new imperialist wars. In line with this agenda, the ruling elite and all its political agencies do their utmost to downplay, distort and cover-up the real history of 1917 and, in particular, the lessons of the Russian Revolution, the most significant political event, not just of that year but of the 20th century.
Next, Anzac – and its special day – have always been contested. Since 1916 many war veterans (not least the original Anzacs who protested against the politicisation of the war they fought) have refused to take part in commemorations. This year Douglas Newton’s new book about the soldier and objector Private Edward James Ryan highlighted the deep divisions among soldiers and broader society about Australian involvement in the first world war.

Undoubtedly one of Australia’s favourite plays, The One Day of the Year explores the universal theme of father–son conflict against the background of the beery haze and the heady, nostalgic sentimentality of Anzac Day. It is a play to make us question a standard institution – Anzac Day, the sacred cow among Australian annual celebrations

What are you talking about?
I like Zagorath’s comment, that’s why I upvoted it. I don’t care if someone doesn’t entirely agree with Me, I still upvote a good comment.
There were Australians at the time who supported their brothers. They said, “stay home.” And there were also Australians at the time who said “Let’s go kill people in the name of honour”, and who encouraged their brothers to a miserable death. Australia never conscripted for World War One. Everyone who died in those trenches chose to be there. Everyone who died in those trenches was a killer. Everyone who died in those trenches after telling his mates to enlist was a killer of his brothers.
The moment that we allow the present day armed forces to participate in the ANZAC day parade, what intent you claim was once there is lost. You cannot say that war is bad, and that we should not have soldiers sailing to foreign lands to kill people, and at the same time permit the minions of Dictator Charles to parade around in their dress uniforms. Many of those soldiers marching today participated in the forever war in the middle east. They did not learn their lesson from Gallipoli. All those ANZAC day parades, year after year, and they did not learn. They will never learn so long as the present day military is permitted at ANZAC day, glorifying the violent institution that they inherently are. That very vocal section who glorifies death and violence are the same people organising, participating in, and attending the parades. Anyone who learned their lesson either stayed home today, or protested.
I’m a degree-holding job-working scientist and I love science. I also love magic. Magic can be proven. Scientists have published hundreds of papers on the powerful placebo effect, also known as magic. Don’t tell me you’re going to deny the existence of the placebo effect?
Scientism is so pervasive and so ridiculous. For example there’s people who say magic isn’t real because science can explain it. No shit science can explain it, that’s the point of science. It’s people defining science in opposition to magic based on cultural values instead of actually knowing what science is. https://medium.com/@viridiangrail/tautological-denial-of-magic-0e311ca94c2a
The comment under the article claims that Discord’s suggestion of having language rules is a term of service. The one thing it’s based on is false. Just like your comment saying I’m on a two year (false) crusade (false). As I wrote in the previous article, I didn’t even think I knew Interstellar until they banned me for being antiracist a year ago. An event so unremarkable I forgot it immediately. There’s been no harassment of any kind either. What there has been is racist attempts by white supremacists to suppress australian languages in australian online communities. Since you ignored the point of the article and said it’s okay to silence indigenous languages if you have an excuse for doing it, I’m going to assume you either didn’t bother to read the article, or are Spark’s alt account.
You’re not supposed to find all the koroks. The golden shit is to tell you that you did the wrong thing.
