Yes. Trying to establish hard measures for capacity is a eugenics project, and holds no value for humanity. It's also largely impossible because there's no such thing as a universal test when most problems with "capacity" indicate different communication styles or learning styles.

Well, it's not like there's been a pattern of mostly women arguing with Nyx this entire time.

You're arguing in defense of a white supremacist metric for eugenic value, because when people started pointing out that IQ is a bullshit system built on hatred you felt personally attacked since you value yourself based on your IQ test scores.

They don't. Everyone is different.

Good for her.

No. There is no "supposed to be" because there is no designer or intent.

It doesn't matter how you arrive at an arbitrary number under an invented framework with no predictive or practical value that was invented to justify racism and eugenics.

You don't, though. You've somehow connected opposition to white supremacist concepts and ideas to support for white supremacy.

These hitlerite Labour stans have got to go.

She blocked me immediately when I asked how Johnson's statements justify Labour's genocide.

Can you clarify how those things justify the genocide being committed against the trans community right now under Labour?

1. Nobody is born as a man.

2. I'm grown. I have no reason to trust cishet white people who think that it's worth claiming that we have advantages.

3. You're siding with arguments made by Labour, who are engaged in active genocide against my people.

4. Liberation and equality or death.

No. That would be considered trespassing and they would be arrested.

The only thing meaningfully driving up the cost of housing is that it's a commodity on the market, and that access to it is controlled by capitalists.

It has to do with your claim that I'm naive. Open borders would allow me to leave this hell and find somewhere else I could possibly stay. Open borders would also almost certainly require a massive societal shift away from insular xenophobic nationalism and toward humanistic compassion.

You're just a nationalist, babe. Your belief that I agree with the rest of America is cute, particularly given my already explicitly stated arguments against its very existence as an entity.

We do, and the limit is well past the point of "open borders and equal access to housing and other necessities".

With that and a quarter, I can rent a cart at Aldi. I don't have reason to believe I have your support when you keep deflecting to immigrants as a part of the housing problem. And I've seen your bullshit about trans women in sports, so I'm not impressed, since you also side with Nazis there.

It's in writing. You've explicitly said that citizens have more right to housing and that immigrants take up housing.

You live in a world where you can exist freely without being brutalized or discriminated against because of why you are. You've got life on easy mode relative to me. I don't have the luxury of naivety. I stand the risk of being raped and killed every time I leave my house.

You want to preserve the existence of the nation and borders, you think the wealthy are to blame for controlling supply, and you think immigrants should be barred entry because the white folks who live there deserve what exists more.

No. Children are less likely to question the point of propaganda like the claim that immigrants are responsible for housing being unavailable.

Arguably, as a trans woman, I don't even have a country, because no nation on this planet has our back without condition, exception, or restriction.

Yes. The same people believing those things are the ones supporting IQ. So much for pattern recognition.

I'm in the US, where we have the same positions on immigration that you're citing as valid. And yes, we should recognize the impact our ancestors have had on the world and seek to make amends.

Am I obligated to entertain claims that the earth is flat, phrenology is real, and illness is caused by miasma, or am I allowed to engage in reality through scientific principles?

No. Historical fact.

I don't think I trust what a xenophobic cishet white man has to say about naivety. You've swallowed fascist rhetoric about immigrants entirely.

Specifically a Nationalist Bolshevik, a group that tried to launder Nazi claims through a lens of communism and have it both ways, attacking both the wealthy and the marginalized groups that were already being harmed by society.

Not really communists, because communists want to abolish states.

Correct.

Ok? It was still designed to measure a white supremacist concept.
