@Jessicam6946 gender neutral terms aren't implemented specifically for LGBT people although it's an added plus. they're added for the people who are literally not the child's parent. if a law says "mom/dad" instead of guardian, what happens to the godmother/father taking care of a child?
@felsby@Aqua_Vesuvius@zaelefty i mean the majority of people don't deny the sex binary and the people who do are missing the plot because the trans discussion has never been about sex. gender is a societal phenomenon that is subject to change and is clearly changing
@davidmarcus the only way voter ID becomes accessible is if the state gives out voter cards and at that point you're creating so much bureaucracy for a nothing burger
@davidmarcus i mean states require you provide ID to register in the first place, while still giving options for people who don't have readily available ID. the only reason voter ID becomes bad is that it becomes an unnecessary extra step at the polls when voter fraud is extremely rare
@mudrarakshasah i oppose the criminalization of abortion in all cases, but from a moral standpoint the abortion of a baby just about to be born is bad (excluding medical exception). it's not my choice to make though and most doctors would deny that abortion because it's also risky
@RockChartrand social security is an objective good, but we still made a worse system than every other country. like why are we putting it towards a fund to be redistributed when it could be put towards personal bank accounts like sweden or australia
@its_t_train@brndxix so the obvious solution is to send masked federal officers who ignore 4th amendment protections and detain both legal immigrants and citizens!! who cares about actually decreasing green card backlog or hiring people to handle visa applications!!
@huhjusay@rushicrypto the top 2% includes high-income earners that aren't the uber-wealthy billionaires like elon or zuck. it's an important distinction to make bc. the top 25 billionaires pay, on average, a true tax rate of 3.4%, which is reasonable for people to want to adjust
@MaxUtilitarian@trouble_man90 If you want to say that count revisions make the numbers fake, then practically all presidential job numbers become fake. They usually revise them in post because new information comes to light. Biden's job numbers were unique because of all the jobs that needed to be rebuilt
@wdunlap that provided inaccurate results. That's why the first study found that the results were no longer significant when the time frame was extended to 365 days. However, I guess it's a lot easier to cite studies willy nilly without reading them or surrounding literature ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
@wdunlap Therefore, people who are vaccinated are more likely to be diagnosed for cancer. Additionally, 2021-2023 saw a major increase in people getting diagnosed for cancer because of all the backlog built up during the pandemic in 2020. This once again skewed data in a way
@itsavivaxo ??? It's not even a "woke" thing, not every single guardian is that child's parent to begin with 😭 have we forgotten the existence of godparents and adoptive parents??
@Triple777pro@KinaMagica No one said you have to use legal lingo. They use the word guardian because not every person taking care of a child is the parent to that child.
