  • Even if I accept that any state is really as solid blue as people may think, we have the opportunity as a nation to cast an overwhelming vote against fascism.

    I’m voting for the Green party, not a fascist.

    That would be sending a message that the entire free world could be proud of.

    The entirety of the United Nations except the US and Israel has condemned the massacre in Gaza as a genocide. You think everyone would be proud of voting for someone who intends to continue to ship weapons to Israel?

    You’d rather cast your vote for a Putin asset.

    No proof and regardless this is bigger than Jill Stein, this is about building power to the left of the Democratic party. Claudia De la Cruz would definitely be my preferred candidate over Stein, but it is what it is.





  • From https://www.coe.int/en/web/gender-matters/sex-and-gender

    Sex refers to “the different biological and physiological characteristics of males and females, such as reproductive organs, chromosomes, hormones, etc.” Gender refers to "the socially constructed characteristics of women and men – such as norms, roles and relationships of and between groups of women and men. It varies from society to society and can be changed.

    So people want to be seen as the same gender as they feel they are, this seems reasonable to me.

    Also from that same site:

    Traditional gender norms are hierarchical: they presuppose an unequal power structure related to gender that disadvantages mostly women.

    People don’t think there should be an inherent advantage to being male, which I also think is quite reasonable.
