Chuds are secretly very embarassed by their conformity and privilege, so they need the reassurance that they are opressed and rebellious free thinkers who aren't fooled by anybody while they somehow constantly side with the ruling class on any issue.
Meanwhile, even if the bourgeois parties hate you, you can still support them into government to "maintain stability" while getting nothing in exchange!
Well, that actually is what the SPD did historically.
Wouldn't surprise me when porky prefers to waste money on office space in prime real eastate areas like NYC or Palo Alto when they could just let people WFH.
What really gets my goat about this is that everyone here seems to be hyperaware about the reasons and consequences of the policing of bodies when it comes to transphobia
Not my experience. People will have a clear positioning on where they generally stand on trans issues, but what that actually means when we're talking about human bodies is often lackluster even among our trans comrades. Recognizing that trans women in sports actually isn't a complicated issue or that gender affirming care is a human right doesn't mean you can't have brainworms about what a woman is supposed to look like, even if you are a woman who is affected and harmed by that every single day. The brainworms run deep and ridding yourself of a lifetime of cishetnormative, misogynist, ableist and racist body propaganda is a fairly demanding task.
I need to stress that i do not mean this post (or my previous one ITT) as a callout. I'd say that you actually can't just shoot the cop inside your head, it's more like slowly strangling that fucker. It's a process, it takes time, and i try to be generous here. But you need to start somewhere and you don't do that by babystepping people, you need to make it clear that some stuff just doesn't fly.
Triangular slices are now illegal in more than 30 states due to the resemblance to the red hamas triangle, but capitalist innovation quickly solved the problem.
I've thought about just getting platform boots to be able to look down on taller bottoms, but maybe an exosuit cargo loader is an even better idea.
It's funny how literally every single transphobic, pro-gatekeeping detransitioner is an unhinged right wing weirdo and how all of them started "desisting" after they got radicalized. I know several people who went off transmasc HRT, all of them still identify as trans and nonbinary, none of them have transition regret, they just decided that they didn't need to masculinize further and felt better on estrogen.
Kafka all the way.

Context: The federal government just decided that it will only fly the pride flag on May 17th, but will stop doing that during pride month. Unlike in previous years, this is also the old version of the rainbow flag, not the progress flag that includes the chevron representing trans people and queers of color, and given how hard the CDU / CSU is leaning into the transphobia recently, this does not seem like a coincidence.
