“Farmers” are just plant landlords. They are wealthy, they exploit labor. That’s why farmers are all right wing.

The effect on food prices will be minimal. The farms that are suffering were those growing foods for export only. Farms that supply our food are doing fine.

It sounds like a medical records thing and you should use whatever gender is listed on your medical records, which should probably match your social security records.

Some people only change state records so they have to respond differently depending on who’s asking. I think in this case its related to federal records.

speak for yourself, I’ve been beaned by a garbanzo a few times.

ok good to know never setting foot in walgreens ever.

what are the options on the drop down menu? I refuse to supply any demographic information under all circumstances.

The US social security card does not have a gender marker. However, the database entry associated with the card does, and that database is what the feds use as the primary reference for determining someone’s gender in federal systems.

There are no circumstances where an ID card would be unable identify an individual but for the gender marker. Gender markers should not exist. Gender shouldn’t even be recorded.

Examining the genitals of newborn babies and recording the findings is weird unhinged behavior. It should not be normal.

Customs and border control is a federal agency. States do not control their own borders.

If you have to interact with the federal government, it is generally safer to go to offices in accepting areas, because despite federal control, offices are staffed by locals. For safety, check in with locals and vet your social security office before arrival.

However Canadians cannot do this by selecting their destination. When flying to the US, the customs check takes place in the foreign airport. They call it pre-clearence. Every major Canadian airport has pre-clearence, so your passport will be checked by customs agents, specifically selected for a foreign deployment. Upon the return trip the federal tsa will check your passport again before the flight.

My advice for travelers to the US is do not. Go literally anywhere else, or stay home. But if you have to, I would consider a land crossing, because in that case you only pass through a federal check one time upon arrival. But regardless check with local communities to ensure the federal agents you interact with are the least bad possible.

I think the critical part is the chamber. Cars are rarely operated in fully enclosed spaces.

Exhaust fumes are toxic. Fascists are notably supporters of the car, and car makers are frequently fascists. However calling the exhaust a gas chamber is the kind of hyperbole that discredits our position.

State governors do have the authority to deploy the national guard within their own borders. Its pretty well agreed upon both internationally and domestically that its fine to send a military into a sovereign state upon request of the local government.

I dislike governor gavin, but requesting the guard when he did is within his authority as governor.

Anyone calling this hypocrisy doesn’t understand the concept of consent.

North american plugs are not serviceable like british ones. The contacts are molded in plastic at the factory.

Opening a plug to service the wires is not possible. They don’t open, nor do the plugs have fuses.

everything about this is wrong. the most fundamental part is the fact that you don’t wire north american plugs. Wiring your own plugs is a british thing, hence why the case is shaped like the british plug.

Android got rid of the wifi toggle. Now its a submenu of the internet tab, which is a toggle for the internet. Google’s developers don’t understand phones because they think disabling internet access is more important than disabling wifi.

oooh this looks awful

No. It mean the literally opposite depending on context.

Parliament houses usually have a big table in the middle of the room. When legislation is brought fourth for discussion it is placed on the table in the middle of the room. In this case tabling legislation means discussing it.

In other assembly buildings legislators sit at personal tables, so tabling the legislation means removing it from discussion at the front of the room and placing it on the private table, removing it from discussion.

If you read the news and it said that kier starmer tabled some legislation, and another article said that Pramila Jayapal tabled legislation that would mean the literal opposite.

Its an bad word that should be replaced with something more clear.

That was 5 months ago. Not exactly new information. We had that conversation shortly after it happened.

He said a dumb thing on a topic he knew very little about. Everything he’s said about trans people comes from a place of ignorance, not malice in my view. Regardless the conversation about those comments already happened. Unless he’s said something new, there’s nothing to discuss here.

As far as I’m aware there is no fediverse shadowbanning. But your comments are not federating. Though I can see this one, many of your comments seem to have not made it outside of your local instance.

It is happening, but its more likely a technical issue than anything else.

That’s what I see when viewing their profile from lemmy.blahaj. There are plenty of extra comments when viewed from blahaj.piefed. Seems like many of their posts are not federating. I tried to track down one of their comments to lemmy.world and it didn’t seem to be visible on the server.

For context this is the fullest version I have found of the DM conversation that is screenshotted on the petition.

In communist communities they often use the term bourgeoisie to refer to the the rich owning classes, and proletariat to refer to the working classes. That was the language used by karl marx, so it’s what they use in the spaces inspired marxist movements.

When was that screenshot taken? There’s been plenty of time to see the whether the future violence you’ve predicted actually happened.

I’m sure if he did something violent you’d post that instead of literally the first time we’re aware of him mentioning trans people on the internet.
