Neoxon's Pinned Tweet, begging people to follow him on BlueSky or Threads...

Honestly, why keep tweeting when literally NO ONE is paying attention to you or even knows you exist?

Take a hint, Neoxon, no one likes you. Even excelsiorf and ZeoVGM, two equal losers who virtually live on Twitter, don't follow you.

That one reply was himself saying he'll leave the hellhole Twitter if it becomes a paywall. I'm surprised the like isn't by him since he does like his tweets if no one does

Is that for real? what a fuckin loser

[DSC]

i was going to unironically say that maybe the mod team was changing for the better

banning zeo twice in a short period of time, one for multiple months? maybe recognizing that posters like him are more harmful to the forum than any idiot troll could be

closing the gaza thread? realizing that the forum isn't equipped to have a discussion on some topics, and that's ok

then i see that dubs is out there admonishing his idiot user base for jumping to conclusions while leaving the thread title factually incorrect for hours

Almost assuredly coming soon to ResetERA.com where users are not allowed to post misinformation:

Kids are absolutely capable of knowing their gender identity; this is supported by a few key facts:

First, according to major medical associations like the Mayo Clinic, gender identity forms as early as three to five years old. Gender identity is usually established long before sexual orientation, but because many people confuse these, they assume that gender cannot be known prior to adulthood. This is false. As soon as a child is able to verbalize their identity, they are capable of knowing it.

Of course, this does not mean that every kid realizes that they are transgender as a toddler. Social and parental pressures as well as societal stereotypes of gender, which are often rigidly enforced at school and at home (and everywhere else), can cause many transgender individuals to remain presenting as the gender they were assigned at birth for many years — some unaware of the reasons behind any disconnect, some unaware of their transness altogether.

Let's not ignore that if a child who is not transgender never wavers in their identity in their childhood, no one claims that they are too young to know they are not transgender. No one is telling little cisgender boys or cisgender girls that they are too young to know they are boys and girls, respectively. Cisgender children are trusted to know their gender from birth. Transgender children deserve the same self-actualization, autonomy and dignity.

Second, gender identity is not a decision. Trans children do not decide they are transgender, they decide to tell you. And what immense courage that often requires, especially in a world rife with violent transphobia and strict gender stereotypes and expectations. I spent nearly five years harboring and hiding my sexuality, and even longer holding my gender identity. Many kids will have spent months or years crying in bed and laboring over how to share themselves with us.

Third, when people refer to children's "brains not being fully developed," they are referring to the prefrontal cortex, or PFC. This is largely regarded as the control center of the brain — it is the most recently evolved part of the brain and controls executive function. The claim that the PFC is not fully developed in kids is accurate: executive functioning does not mature until early adulthood. Executive function is often referred to as cognitive or self-control and includes the following three skills: cognitive flexibility, working memory and inhibitory control.

Let's focus on inhibitory control for a moment. Inhibition includes the ability to hone attention and focus, ignore distractions, and inhibit or regulate base emotions and impulses. While inhibition is often very useful and allows us to adhere to social rules and therefore function appropriately in society, it also allows us to inhibit ourselves — our very identities.

If you're an adult, you've likely experienced this. Everyone inhibits (or hides, avoids, doesn't show) pieces of themselves for various reasons when they interact with others, especially in social settings.

But as stated by the question-asker, kids do not have mature inhibitory control — they do not have the mature neurological pathways in the PFC yet to enact it. As a result, kids have a unique ability to express themselves exactly as they are, because that is all they have. They have not grown up to learn who they are supposed to be, so they are just who they are.

Mature executive function (from a fully developed PFC) can actually reduce the ability for a person to be able to openly speak their mind and express their authenticity because mature executive function allows for a heightened ability to inhibit oneself—and potentially could allow a trans person to inhibit their expression of self due to fear or some other hesitation. An underdeveloped PFC might actually allow kids to declare their identities with clarity better than an adult.

Lastly, the question posed inserts a comparison between me and other trans people that is often elitist, ageist and sometimes even racist. Confused? Read on.

"You're so articulate" and "You seem so mature" are handed to me as compliments but are followed with "and my child is not." The parent or adult then will often explain why they doubt the validity of a young child's transness or ability to know oneself. This is dangerous reasoning because it declares: "Since my child does not appear as articulate or mature as you are, I do not believe they deserve the same rights or trust that you do."

This sounds harsh. Because it is. This is what a child will internalize when they share themselves and are met with doubt and rejection. Many parents believe that it is their responsibility to lead the child to somewhere positive, but I firmly believe it is the opposite. The parent must allow the child to lead, and the parent's duty is to hold the child's hand, to be back up, to provide support, especially in matters of identity and self-determination.

Invalidating a child's understanding of themselves not only indicates to the child that they cannot trust you with declarations of self, but they will also learn to doubt themselves. This disruption of learning to trust oneself can become deeply rooted, disturbing the child's very sense of self. Numerous studies have shown that invalidating childhood environments are hotbeds for the production of serious mental illness such as depression, eating disorders and even personality disorders like borderline personality disorder and dissociative identity disorder.

The answer for our question-asker is: Children are capable of knowing their gender identity as toddlers and are neurologically better equipped to declare their gender identity at a young age due to immature inhibitory brain structures. Children, regardless of their ability to articulate perfectly their identities, should be respected and affirmed for who they are.

thats a lot of words for basically age ain't nothing but a number / /

Worth it's own post, Krazen praising Hamas 😂

I hate to say it; while Hamas is a terrorist organization at least they don’t have a long history of covering up their crimes on an international stage. (note the current IDF accusation is that the missile was from another terrorist org).

Irony is of all the people making this argument, the least proven liars are the peaceful concert goer murdering terrorists.

is parody actually dead now? Because this is unironically and literally going "Indiscriminate muder is one thing, but I draw the line at lying about it"

JK Rowling's Legacy of Hate thread has been pushed down to the THIRD page even after the the most recent attempted murder attempt (tweet) by Joanne. Clicky, Kyuuj, and all the other ladies of Ree are slipping in their support.

Watching thousands of people get killed in Israel and Palestine really puts it in perspective how absurd, if not downright offensive, it is to claim that there's a trans genocide

Time to hit the showers

[Gamegirl Nostalgia]

Bravo to B-dubs and the rest of the mod team. The now locked Ongoing Israel / Palestine Conflict News Thread was a masterful experiment. Witnessing how quickly it takes for a community of people to turn against the media was very insightful and I have a better grasp on the subject now.

Hopefully this social experiment will bring a sort of come to jesus moment for our EtcetEra posters. Now they see how easily it was for Trump supporters to be manipulated into believing reliable news sources and Government officials were lying to them.

I hope that after this experience they will show empathy instead of hostility and vitriol toward their fellow man.

God bless America.
God bless our troops.
and GOD bless Israel.

Not so fast!  They reopened it

We're reopening this thread again and will be handling reports in the background. A necessary reminder to everyone not to engage in hurling insults and accusations at one another. This is a fast-moving, intense, and horrifying situation, and discussion is not helped when it is derailed into meaningless back-and-forths. Ignore inflammatory rhetoric and report it for staff to review.

[Gamegirl Nostalgia]

 It's reopened.

i take it back

fucking nepenthe telling ppl to "ignore inflammatory rhetoric" is the apex of lolz here

you literally show up in every thread to ramp up the rhetoric, secure in the knowledge nobody will ever call you out

Not sure if this deserved its own thread or not but one of the protests in Washington DC made it into the Capitol Building today. Unfortunately I'm having a hard time finding good sources, there's very little coverage

It's Jan 6th all over again..

Edit:

Nobody possibly could have predicted that unverified heresay social media posts would blow back. And that when caught a bunch of performative era members die on the hill with their side, in this case, checks notes, a terrorist group that wants to exterminate the Jews.

Attention Gal Gadot enjoyers she has a new 'we have Mission Impossible at home' movie out on Netflix, which is pretty decent called Heart of Stone.

[Nintex]

I've only ever considered them to be very capable and intelligent. Given their small numbers they've left a big foot print on culture and science.

If you know your history it is obvious a Jewish state is needed but I'm conflicted on the location. I understand the historical significance but it is also a very dangerous place. Somewhere in North America would've been safter. As far as the "Genocide" against Gaza goes... you should look up the demographics of the Middle East and Turkey and compare Jewish and Christian minorities over a number of decades. The only 'ethnic cleansing' that has been taking place is the Muslims purging their lands of minorities and destroying important religious sites. Not a single Arab army intervened or send aid when ISIS ran amock.

As far as a Palestinian state goes, it has never existed in recorded history. The closest was a plot of empty desert the Brits named Palestine. The jews created a viable state in that desert despite everything that the Arabs have thrown at them. You could argue it was just US money but what matters is what you do with the money because other countries receiving just as much if not more aid (Iraq, Afghanistan) didn't turn out like Israel. What they built in less than 100 years is nothing short of incredible.

The Palestinians could have done the same if they wanted, Gaza could've been a vibrant coastal city given its location but they're blinded by their hatred for the Jews.

[Gamegirl Nostalgia]

what do you guys think about the jews

they ask for a good bit of money for material and other help to convert but that's the hustle to keep the boys club pure. 

[Gamegirl Nostalgia]

Who has been oppressing the Palestinian people for 50+ years? like 70 percent of the people in Gaza are descendants of refugees kicked out of their homes decades ago. You have Israeli officials justifying collective punishment for everyone in Gaza cause they “elected” Hamas even though their haven’t been elections in like 17 years and half of the 2 million there are children who wouldn’t even have been alive to vote. This didn’t just start last week. Hell one of the reasons the attack was so bad was cause the military was diverted to the West Bank so they provide cover for violence by illegal settlers. Last I checked more 50 people were confirmed. But here you are taking a victory lap cause Israel didn’t bomb this hospital after a history of bombing hospitals.

it's ok to say you were wrong about the hospital attack. Learning from past mistakes isn't a bad thing.

Self reflection helps us grow.

I'm hoping I can make my 40s just as good as my 30s were, but more in terms of getting comfortable with who I am instead of just discovering who I am. For context, it was in my 30s that I:
Fell in love with an amazing woman (started dating in 2015)
Started meds for anxiety and depression (only a few years after my initial diagnosis)
Got diagnosed with ADHD (and unofficially diagnosed with autism)
Came out as bisexual
Came out as transgender-ish (non-binary AMAB with the hope of some sort of affirming something in my 40s)
Solidified my career path (entered tech writing in 2011 but working with Blizzard and Google in that role really locked it in)
Other things not fully worth a bullet point

Look man, be who you want to be, but what the fuck is this nonsense?
