Oh. Yeah that explains it
100% I just think it's a weird to say "restraint is a new option" when it's literally not. It's actually always been an option. We're a social species; without restraint - verbal or physical - we aren't here right now.
05.09.2025 23:01 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0The word decorum as we understand it, which is essentially what this article talks about, is from the 16th century. And the basis for its roots are traced to Cicero. The concept of public restraint/decorum/politeness isn't new. Self censure is as old as time. Not sure what he's getting at.

It's very very difficult to keep track of what inventory has come in at what charge and it's even more difficult to update your entire system each time a change happens.

This line if thinking just makes my point. You can be aligned nearly perfectly but the discourse here insists that one (slightly) differing opinion on a small fraction of a complex political issue makes you one of "them"
Stomping out nuance isn't productive.
Because he literally doesn't say that he "wants to set a limit at 26"
29.08.2025 06:02 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 2 π 0The Nazi was bringing up his concerns and stated ages that people can do things, yes. Did Newsom riff of that and say the brain isn't developed until 26? Yes. Did he say he wants to set a limit at 26? No.
29.08.2025 05:59 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0For the record I don't agree with the general idea that anyone needs to wait a predetermined amount of time. Those decisions should be left to families and doctors. But I also didn't come out of that video going "he wants people to wait until they're 26"
29.08.2025 05:57 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0I mean did we watch a different video? You're kind of filling in some blanks there with your imagination
29.08.2025 05:48 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0I mean that's not what he actually said though. All he implied was that the brain isn't developed until 26. I get the implication but it's not like he's pushing policy on it. If he does then shame on me I guess.
I just feel like we can agree on 99/100 things but for some reason that's not enough
I mean no. It's not a divine opinion that there shouldn't be any rules regarding trans persons participation in gender specific sports.

I get what you're saying but I also don't think you're taking his record into account. Which speaks more than words.
That doesn't make it right to categorize an LGBTQ person as being a "wrong" version of themself. There is no "right" way to be gay or trans. Surely you can concede that point.
29.08.2025 04:55 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0I think it's fine to dislike him. I just think it's extreme to call him a transphobe and spend time going after him when we have actual fascists running the government. I guess a long time ago that was my original point.
29.08.2025 04:45 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 2 π 0I'm literally talking about the latter. I've seen it with both. With Buttigieg people hate that he's not "gay enough"
I've seen tons and tons of people say he's not gay enough. And I'm a dude who fucks dudes so can I say that or do I have to be quiet about that too?
It's not just criticism. It's literally people saying they're "bad" versions of their communities.
29.08.2025 04:29 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0And not every trans person agrees that Newsom is a transphobe... I'm not trans but I am queer. I'd hope that you can acknowledge that trans people aren't a monolith, just like gays/pan/bis/aces/aros/enbys etc aren't either.

29.08.2025 04:01 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0I will admit I hadn't seen that. He's wrong to say that. But there's a difference between a loose statement and policy. Do we see a world where he's drafting legislation that bans anyone under 25 from transitioning? I'd be in line to denounce him or anyone if they ever did.

I can't find the actual video but in the article you posted it's touched on it (briefly) where the organization decided that the trans athletes finishing place would be duplicated for the next cis athlete. I'm 99% sure it was in that context
