NGL this is true to an extent, but it's not to just get a reaction but to get people to think.
Fundamentally all content on the internet lives and dies by attention, and the presentation of an attention-grabbing hot take even when the underlying point is an extremely common and sensible position is just a way to get people to think.
It's the same way YouTube video titles work too, often an absurd question that has an obvious answer is a pretext to fleshing out the details and discussing said obvious answer.
I'm not bitter, ultimately none of this affects me in the selfish sense, just lightly perplexed. I appreciate your explanation. Figures most people just have kneejerk reactions.
That was not the point being made at all. Precisely the opposite, that being trans *** is not *** about clothing choices, but a physical characteristic of suffering from sex dysphoria over specific physical traits that goes away when those traits are corrected. This is my experience as a trans person.
On the other hand being gender fluid and identifying with other GNC subcultures is not about such physical issues.
No. I was helping people practice harm reduction if they do get amphetamine - be it Adderall or LisDex formulation like Vyvanse/Elvanse without the oversight of a medical professional or pharmacist and explaining that it is a possibility, and that instead of the war on drugs type approach of claiming it's simply not real, we should take care of our own with solidarity, e.g. explaining how to get proper purity tests to ensure you are not consuming meth, how to find reliable and semi-trustworthy sources, avoid scams etc.
Just comveying things I learned the hard way - from experience - while waiting on the NHS for a prescription that I have now and having to keep my life together to keep my job etc in the meanwhile.
I did the same for my own IRL gf who suffered from meds shortages, and I did the same for the trans community back in the day and I stand by it.
Edit: I genuinely cannot understand how this can be downvoted by anyone of sound mind whatsoever. Every single person I know with ADHD self-medicates or has self-medicated with darknet amph or supplemented during shortages due to healthcare system fuckups, but they are shit at it, getting god knows what miscallenous powders and suffering.
How could someone ever possibly disagree with promoting harm reduction practices, yet agree with a sensationalist comment that equates ADHD medication to meth? How can you actually think at all, and arrive at such a conclusion?
I don't want to go off-topic but since you made a character judgement i'd like the chance to respond, I was really just drawing a line between trans people with gender dysphoria who have medical needs that I think political campaigns should focus on versus those folks without.
I have nothing against anyone either way, people are free to dress or ID however they wish, no sweat off my back, I just don't want suffering I went through to happen to others when it's truly needless and I think the massaging could be clearer with regards to that.
You can doubt it all you want it may still be true. You can manipulate a flat earther into believing the earth is round, he can doubt it, but it will still be round.
Nah if you tricked people into getting vaccines you'd be right because getting vaccines is still the right choice.
To OP: how you convince people of a fact doesn't change that fact, you can manipulate people to believe a lie as much as a truth. The latter is what democrats need to do to win against Trump for instance, lie and cheat and disparage the opposition at every opportunity, call them all molestors, party of Epstein island etc etc and just fool people into believing the right thing just like trump, putin etc. fool people into believing the wrong thing.
This would be so good. As someone who fully switched to Firefox on Android I hate that chrome webview is a thing.
Closest without rooting is to "uninstall updates" to the chrome app in the menu which makes it "APK Stub" instead of Chrome, ans then disabling Android Webview.
