Are you referring to this?
But yet again, for the pro-lifers, murdering babies, no matter how good the results etc might be is fundamentally wrong.
Because that's very obviously referring to the matter in the way that "pro lifers" would.
And you are ignoring the preceding:
I tend to agree with you that abortion should be available to all who want one because it's not my damned decision to make.
I would read comments more carefully if you're going to cast aspersions..
You are being perfectly reasonable and coherent by the way. Whoever is downvoting you doesn't seem to understand the point of discussion.
Let's call it a personality trait for a moment, do you think much would change?
It happens to be a 'personality trait' that others routinely address you by, and set expectations by, and which might grate if it doesn't match up with your experience of yourself.
Gender theory investigates the subtlety of what's going on when people are referred to as "he" or "she" in society. It is not just about what genitals or sex characteristics a person has. It goes far beyond that to your social role, and expected behaviours.
Society has a whole ton of expectations and presumptions towards a "she" and similarly towards a "he" that aren't biologically grounded. Those things shift about through history and vary by culture. That's what people mean by "socially constructed".
Gender queer people would like to be addressed by the social category they internally line up with. Call that a personality trait if you like but it's such a major one - affecting how people perceive your other personality traits - that it's in a category of its own.

A bit of nuance to what you say there...
LGBT people say gender (not sex, gender) is a social construct because the evidence points to this. How gender has been expressed has varied wildly over recorded human history (from customs to clothes to behaviours to jobs to everything else). In any given point of history someone's sex has been linked strongly to a particular gender expression, but the fact that those expressions vary deeply from culture to culture show they're socially constructed rather than purely biologically determined.
When you say they think they're not "important", I think LGBT do think gender expression is important. What's not important is squeezing into the two expressions that society traditionally had. Or welding yourself to society's expectations based on what genatalia you have.
History (for the most part) had two distinct gender expressions corresponding to the two sexes. But this itself was heavily influenced by society being tightly coupled to the biological reality and differences between men and women. Women had babies. Men were stronger. The gender expressions followed from that and you had to stay in the one society expected because that's what kept society functioning. Religion is a social construct that enforces this.
But as society has evolved we're no longer bound to these distinctions in the same way and the gender fluidity of people - which has always been there - is now able to express itself in more variety.
There are people born male who are far more comfortable living in society's 'female' behaviours and traits. And vice versa. There are men who are attracted to men and women to women. There are people born female who have deep seated psychological need for their body to be male. All these people have always existed it's just in the past they got sidelined as 'sinners' or divergent because society basically consisted of childbearing and hard manual labour.
There are GUI wrappers that issue the equivalent commands for you, but a lot of Linux users would just write something like this on the command line:
sudo apt install vlc
That's how you would install VLC (media player) on Debian linux without any prior file download or browsing. It connects to the Debian repository for you, downloads and installs.
You don't generally download the file like you would an exe or MSI on windows. Rather you enter a command line that tells Linux to connect to the repository (like an app store) of that particular type of Linux, pull the latest installation file and install it.
You can still download the file and install it directly, but it's not a straightforward double click like on windows.
Just remember: imposter syndrome is real. Everything you learn exposes you to ten things you don't yet know. Successful devs are comfortable with this reality - the job is one of constant learning. Best of luck!
It may be what you say, the algorithm being dumb. Or it may be deliberate: you've shown yourself willing to categorize these annoying ads so you will be sent more so that fb can collect more data on them.

It's not though is it? "From the river to the sea" is referring to a Palestinian territory spanning from the Mediterranean to the Jordan. It's referring to establishing a state over that area the exact same way Jews use it. The question meta weighed up was not "what are state actors doing". Because if they had done so and had decided the saying was explicitly support for Hamas then they would have banned it, because Hamas is a proscribed terrorist organisation according to the US.
Instead they explain they just because an individual says it, then the reader cannot infer the support of a state level group like Hamas. Nor is the saying in itself an encouragement to hurt Jewish people.
But this also means of a Jewish individual says it then the reader cannot infer support of the action of a state level group like the Israeli government. Nor can it be taken in itself to be an explicit encouragement to violence against Palestinians.
Cake and eat it etc.
(Also, since it came up, over 70% of Jews in Israel were born in Israel. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Israelis. I assume you're not the kind of person to say "but where are you really from?")
Meta have decided that an individual saying "from the river to the sea" neither implies support for a state actor (Hamas in this case) nor does it constitute hate speech in itself (the call for a Palestinian state to cover the ground currently mostly occupied by Israel is apparently not a call to violence against Israel or the Jews living there)
None of this has anything to do with the dynamics of the current conflict, meta do not mention it. Incitement to hatred or violence occurs between individuals. And meta have determined that a Palestinian (or anyone) saying that phrase is not expressing hatred for Jews nor inciting violence by implying that Israel should be removed.
So if they are being consistent with that logic then a Jew saying the same thing "does not imply support for the Israeli state or its actions", in the same way that a Palestinian saying it does not imply Hamas support.
Similarly, if a Palestinian saying it is not attempting incitement to violence (Hamas' actions notwithstanding), then a Jew saying it is not attempting incitement to violence (the actions of the Israeli state notwithstanding)
For the record I would regard the phrase said by either side as hate speech / incitement and I think meta's ruling is silly.
Keep Lemmy small. Make the influence of conversation here uninteresting.
Or .. bite the bullet and carry out one-time id checks via a $1 charge. Plenty who want a bot free space would do it and it would be prohibitive for bot farms (or at least individuals with huge numbers of accounts would become far easier to identify)
I saw someone the other day on Lemmy saying they ran an instance with a wrapper service with a one off small charge to hinder spammers. Don't know how that's going
Padme: so it will be ok when Jews say it too, right?
Anakin:
Padme: right??
