Apologies. Lemmy doesn’t seem to like posts that have both links and images.

He pinned a comment on the video that the word is wrong and promised to edit the video to remove or blur it! I took My article down.

If discussion of politics is not to your liking

Actually, I am Extremely Political. Here are My blog posts on the subject of the subject of politics. One admittedly quite aggressive on the subject:

Also, I admit that I am constructing a very emotional narrative in the blog post, which is a transparent attempt at emotionally manipulating people into feeling empathy and patience for the big scary person living with NPD. I find that when I use language that permits people to think of these issues as a matter of cold, hard, factual accuracy, their ability to empathise with oppressed peoples who they’ve been told to hate is deeply impaired. Stories are the language of human memory. They’re easy to listen to, easy to remember, easy to think about, and easy to feel about. The human mind is optimised for processing stories more readily than facts. So I often try to present facts as stories.

In any case, thank you for the idea to ask Ian directly. I just did so, and I plan to heavily rethink My post if he agrees.

I think that aggression against people on the basis of disability is inherently reactionary, no matter the scale of the aggression, nor the disability in question. Furthermore, there’s also the fact that Ian thinks Gary was wrong to defend an indigenous species from genocide by a colonising power. That is an incredibly bad take to be coming from an outlet often touted as exemplary of leftist values. And the fact that it seems to be a factor that the liberator of the indigenous people is supposedly disabled, makes it very sus.

I use capitalised neopronouns because I’m transgender and nonbinary. I’m sure you didn’t realise that, or else you wouldn’t have complained about My pronouns. And yes, I am a person living with narcissistic personality disorder. You can psychoanalyse a potential connection between My gender and My disability if you wish, but please don’t feel the need to share your opinion of My psychiatric history, as I’ve heard, and thought about, it all before. Chicken, egg, it doesn’t matter to anyone else but Me, because it doesn’t hurt anyone except perhaps Me. That is if people are not understanding of My gender identity.

The quality of Innuendo Studios has been declining lately, and I no longer feel comfortable sharing their videos. https://medium.com/@viridiangrail/innuendo-studios-is-getting-more-reactionary-2c9e54da67b5

I think you should keep reading for 10 more words. I elaborated on exactly what you’re talking about in the 10 words after that quote.

Well, there are a lot of discord users who are allies and believe in supporting others, and that’s why

No, I don’t know.

No, I definitely have friends who are allies and who care about accessibility for their friends.

That’s really strange, this seems like the sort of Lemmy instance where people would care about accessibility the minute they heard about the issue

Plurality is a lot more common than most people think. The existence of pluralkit exposed a LOT of people to the idea of plurality and got them realising they were already plural. Myself included.

It’s kind of like how a lot of lesbians didn’t understand their own identities until they heard Katy Perry sing “I kissed a girl”.

Furthermore, imagine you’re on a server with 500 active members, and there are 5 systems who use pluralkit. That server has probably had the “why are you a bot” “I’m using pluralkit” conversation dozens of times. All 500 people know how important pluralkit is. On Discord, there are dozens of allies for every one system.

I don’t know. Maybe one day I’ll look into the Matrix API and see if it’s possible. Theoretically it should be easy as long as webhooks are in place. The hard part is hosting. Pluralkit is huge compared to most discord bots. They used to have lots of downtime, but now they run it across a lot of shards.

I love military gothic style so much

Excrucians are soldiers trying to destroy the world and kill all the angels. Swords are useful! Especially if they’re the god-slaying kind.

Thank you. Spreading the politics of soulism has been an uphill battle with the general public, but when I present any one of these points to an expert it’s immediately agreed with. The fact that reality is fake is basically common knowledge among sociologists. It seems, however, that few people have turned this fact into a political will and praxis. The closest I’ve seen anyone come is certain mystery cults. My long term plan is to build a serious political movement. In my opinion there has been a serious flaw in the trans acceptance movement globally up until now in that it did not include soulism. Soulist theory handily disarms every single transphobic talking point with the simplest of logic. And the lateral violence that some privileged queer people exert on those whose identities have less social acceptance suddenly becomes impossible. I think trying to claw forward in rights one identity at a time is a mistake. What our community needs is decisive action to protect everyone who ever has and ever will have a queer identity. And the soulist community is the only political group I’ve ever seen act in such a manner. Individuals, yes, but I have not seen blanket acceptance on a mass scale, because all hitherto mass movements relied on assimilating certain identities into reality.
