There are only two genders...
Except for: <giant list of genetic, epigenetic, developmental, etc... things that happen with human beings>.
Not to mention all the other things that happen with other living things

Yeah, and so are red-heads, Karen. In fact, red-heads are rarer than intersex people. Are red-heads not worthy of basic respect and dignity?

There are as many genders as you can think of.
There are two sexes (M/F), but they exist on a continuum rather than a binary.
Also, why are we so obsessed with sex and gender? They want us to be distracted by this bullshit.
Wake up and realise the Class Consciousness!

6 0 ReplyI think sexual insecurity plays a role. The trans hate is repackaged homophobia. Gay panic used to be a legal defence for example https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gay_panic_defense

You're kind of missing the point.
Everyone knows there are more than 2 genders. It's an easily falsifiable statement.
It's an incendiary statement designed to foment division.

I'm making fun of them by pointing out how they're wrong

Actually no, not everyone knows. You'd be surprised how people are ignorant to these matters (by choice, or repressive environment)

I love how The Age put their article about Palmer trying to buy the election with ads right above one of his ads.

LOL. Clive saw Trump win and ordered his people to lean into identifying as closely with that as they can get away with legally. It’s like scammy electric-car startups a few years ago choosing names that sounded as reminiscent of Tesla as possible (Nikola, Faraday Future) without actually infringing on any trademarks.
The problem of that the plausibly-deniable reading of his new party name, with its Biblical-apocalyptic imagery and emphatic pledge-of-allegiance patriotism, comes across as exceedingly American, to the point where most undecided Australians would take one look and say “yeah, nah”.

@zero_gravitas There are only two types of billionaires. Arseholes and Pricks.

Thanks for the snippet about the F1 race in Aussie this weekend.
6 0 ReplyI just saw a Trumpettes of Patriots TV ad that had Tucker Carlson in it.
Tucker was on stage with Clive saying how billionaires are bad and do nothing for you. But you needed Clive, you needed rich people on your side.
WTF? All I could think of was "This ad has been authorised by cookers, for cookers"
