See this is the problem right here. 1/3 of Americans are deplorable, always have been, back to the founding fathers. And it only took 28% to elect Trump/Elon/Vance. How can the world ever trust the US political system again? It’s been hacked by Citizens United, and at this point has been completely corrupted by the billionaires. I do believe that it can be fixed, but it won’t be. This has been a long time in the making.

13·2 years agoPlease enlighten me. If it was not because the democrats were not progressive enough, and it was not because they were too progressive, than why didn’t you vote against MAGA?

16·2 years ago7% of registered voters are progressive. Enough excuses, we all knew the stakes of this election.
Considering that we only needed 2% of registered voters to see the forest thru the trees, I do firmly blame the selfish sacks who stayed home.
I am done catering to progressives. We need to drop the progressive voters and pull in more from the center. Let the progressives start their own political party.

I full expect ~1/3 to vote republican every time. They never sit out a vote.
Who sat out the vote for the democrats? And for what bullshit reasons?
If you sat it out, it’s on you, and STFU

And knowing all of this, more than 1/3 of registered voters didn’t care enough about anything but their own reflection on their phone to cast a vote.

10·2 years agoSocial media is now literally running the country and controlling the faucets on the disinformation. Now they have TikTok too. 1984 is here folks, and more than 2/3 of the country sat back smugly staring at themselves in their precious smartphone mirrors while it happened.

121·2 years agoI’m mean, OK, but less than 1/3 of the registered voters voted Trump. Less than 1/3.
I fully expect 1/3 of our country to be right wing, but for another 1/3 to just sit home and stare at themselves in their precious phones… how can they live with themselves?

politics @lemmy.world•Biden administration warns against forced surgeries on intersex children in historic report
73·2 years agoConditions in which chromosomal sex is inconsistent with phenotypic sex, or in which the phenotype is not classifiable as either male or female, occur in 0.018% of the population [1].
The claim that 1.7% of the population is ‘intersex’ [2] includes conditions which most clinicians do not recognize as intersex [1], and is often wrongly used to back up the ideological assertion that ‘sex is a spectrum’, or that biological sex is not dimorphic.

politics @lemmy.world•Biden administration warns against forced surgeries on intersex children in historic report
116·2 years agoJust to be clear, I never said that intersex people don’t exist. My perspective is that intersex people are a combination of male and female. Gonads vs ovaries. Xx vs xy chromizones. Male vs female biological anatomy (boobs vs penis etc). It’s a binary system with some mixing in between.
Not intended to be offensive.
Analogy: RGB is based on 3 primary colors. I am not saying that teal doesn’t exist.
Get it?

324·2 years agoI get you point, but biological sex is either male, female, or a combination of male and female. I see your perspective that there are three options. But something like testicle vs ovaries is binary, with the option to have both, or none I guess.

28·2 years agoI do know that intersex people exist, obviously, but even in the explanations mammals have X vs Y chromizones, or male vs female genetalia, from a biology perspective. What is the 3rd chrmozone, or third type of genetalia? Or are chromizones a spectrum, genetalia a spectrum?
