I'm really quite nervous that this election will turn out like the ones before and Bibi will be given a chance to form a coalition.
That dude is a criminal. You don't charge a sitting Prime Minster with crimes if you don't have a slam-dunk case. It would be a net negative outcome for everyone involved- your career would be over.
So, I've voted what is considered 'Center-Left'.
And while other Israelis might crucify me for it, I hope the Arab parties get more seats this go around. Representation for the Arab peoples of Israel is absolutely vital.
In the end, I just want to see Likud out of power. They've become toxic and I don't think they're doing any good for Israel in the long term.
I'm not ashamed of my anger. I came to the radfem community because the QT wanted to erase me and my lesbian reality, and because I believed in the power of knowing the feminists before me. Turns out a lot of them are shitty circlejerking bullies and they dont value my lesbian reality either. So I'll be sticking around to scream and remind you what hypocrites you are. Peace! β
I would like to remind you all of this old meme: https://youtu.be/l7iVsdRbhnc
I have opinions on the specifically religious parties, too, the American in me can't stand theocratic parties in government.

You guys just watch, I'ma win qoto one day with shitty coding stream or something.
Information on Silencing an instance, to help the confusion.
Hi, Qoto! As you know I posted earlier regarding the silencing of the Spinster instance.
I'd like you to know that a Silence is different than a block. A silenced instance will still allow you to follow users on that instance and communicate with them.
However, the instance will not show in your federated timeline.

@Genie@spinster.xyz @alex @freemo @Surasanji That's called an echo chamber. It is kind of the opposite of federation in that you would never hear or see any opinion but your own. I assume there is a place for such things, I just don't personally see the value in it myself as I am for the free and open exchange of ideas. However, if you are looking to build something like that, all that is required is to de-federate all the instances that aren't 100% in agreement with whatever your instance(in general) stance happens to be. There are closed instances that just contain one business or family or whatever and can certainly create that "support group" environment. I don't believe that was the goal of Spinster, though I don't pretend to speak for them.
I would rather see a playground where both the boys and girls could play together and no one has to stay on the pink side or the blue side and play with gender appropriate toys.
Silencing Spinster Instance for all of QOTO, CW for Length
After much discussion among the mod team we've decided to silence the @spinster instance for QOTO users.
We do not take the silencing of an instance to be anything less than totally serious. We have had issues with being silenced and we do not wish to simply ban an instance because they disagree with us.
Abuse and harassment without moderator comment, however, is a different story.
There are many showings of misandry, anti-trans ideologies, and abusive behaviors dressed up in the guise of 'Protecting an Oppressed Class'.
We at QOTO do acknowledge that there are a great many issues facing women in this world, and that indeed the current social structure of society is almost certainly stacked against them, as it is other oppressed and minority groups.
We cannot, however, support an instance that has little to no moderation of it's more extreme elements that cross the lines of understood acceptable behavior on Mastodon.
It is important to note that this is not necessarily a permanent decision. Should Spinster change their moderation stance on their users and begin to better police their instance we will be happy to unsilence and try again to have a relationship with these people who are undoubtedly trying to fight for what they feel is correct.
As I have said before, and will say again:
It isn't what you say that's important, it is how you say it.
Sorry I've been away, was walking around Amsterdam all weekend and configuring a fresh Archlinux install on my Surface Book 2.
Had the basic install working a few days ago but was mostly tweaking and configuring the window managers to be pretty and behave how i like. I got both i3 and qtile working with mostly all the same key bindings. Its pretty cool and looks super sexy.
There is so so much wrong with this video. First, passing isn't luck. You can start by shaving. Second, passing privilege? Not really... I went from "ew tranny" to "Ha, women don't know what they're talking about" in my industry, soooo *shrug*
No right way to look like a man or a woman - umm, yes there are. That's how our species has known who to mate with since the beginning of mating.
nOn-bInARy isn't trans, it's made up bullshit. NBs can't pass because there isn't a third sex to pass as. That should tell you all you need to know about NB.
A transphobic society?! I literally can't walk from here to Starbucks and back without seeing "Yay transgender!"
You want respect, you have to first respect the people who aren't "trans", which you don't.
I could go on about this little clip all damn day. ...but I'll wrap it up with this...
"passing is a problem" - Well, excuse me if transsexuals want to end their crippling dysphoria, you selfish piece of shit. Not to mention, TS REALLY don't want to stand out and make the other women uncomfortable. You should try it - oh, right, TG aren't really capable of passing.
r/truscum - FOR GOD'S SAKE, stop trying to pass, you self-centred binary pricks! You're hurting the really disprivileged and vulnerable trans people like Jacob Tobia :'-(
