Liriena wrote:So am I, although it also worries me that mean-spirited mockery is the only thing you do in this thread. Throughout your participation, the vast majority of your posts have been pathetic attempts at humorous strawmen of what non-binary people feel or say. While everybody else is, at the very least, trying to keep this serious, even people who share your views, you are insulting and making fun of a vulnerable minority, because for some reason your mind can't process the idea of a human being being anything other than a man or a woman.

If your reaction to something you don't understand is to try to verbally humilliate it, then it seems to me that you have a serious problem.

I'm too narrow minded and uneducated to read that.

No. Just too arrogant and immature to acknowledge the fact that you have been acting like a 10-year-old bully, and you should feel deeply ashamed of yourself.

Find another minority to insult with your pathetic "humour", preferrably one that doesn't already have to put up with discrimination, harrassment and violence on a daily basis.

Argument from incredulity. When in doubt, just assume your opponent's social standing renders their opinion unimportant. No one RESPECTABLE could possibly disagree with you, eh?

The horror.

Let me ask you a question: do you think national bourgeois and imperial bourgeoisie are separate categories? I've heard people say that the national bourgeois are distinct because of their chauvinistic opposition to the imperial bourgeoisie. I want to know what you think.

Isn't putting up with discrimination, harassment and violence regularly what minorities usually do thanks to people like Sang?

Woah-ho-ho, Marx, man, aren't you cool? You must be so cool. Anyone as edgy as that must be so cool. Well, you do know "bourgeoisie" and "proletariat" have been abandoned since they were last used in philosophical discourse, circa the late 19th century, with the advent of the middle class?

Well, it depends on if you learn to deal with said problem. You apparently delight in your problem considering you are boasting about your narrow mindedness and lack of education. We must apparently wait a bit longer for you to start fixing said problem.

Since the more than one century of the advent of its appearance, the middle class didn't expand to most of the globe, and is currently diminishing as capital becomes even more concentrated in an amazingly unequal world.

Structural sexism? Wow. I mean, I know my vagina doesn't entitle me to automatically be a feminist, but I do feel what that poster feels, and I can tell the difference between what's a hyperbolic exaggeration and genuine, 1950s-esque sexism.

That's usually really bad practice.

Won't assume your gender but I historically read you as a cis male, besides. Apologizes if that comes off as intrusive, trans-exclusionary or ally-exclusionary.

Always, always been an ally. I went to the streets a few months ago. But this, this, this isn't real. It's not what actually happens.

Well, you do know "bourgeoisie" and "proletariat" have been abandoned since they were last used in philosophical discourse, circa the late 19th century, with the advent of the middle class?

Since the more than one century of the advent of its appearance, the middle class didn't expand to most of the globe, and is currently diminishing as capital becomes even more concentrated in an amazingly unequal world.

You do know income and wealth mobility are a thing, and they have a strong correlation with income and wealth inequality in free nations?

Capitalism makes people richer. It is an undeniable fact.
