Hugs

I’m going to suggest you to reword your comment. Because I’m pretty sure it will be interpreted as racist and offensive by some, and I would agree with them. Calling someone’s homeland a “shithole” sucks, especially something as vague as an entire continent. I understand you don’t exactly mean it that way, but in that case, maybe use less insulting language.

But anyways, regarding your question, I guess there are a lot of “richer” African countries (Rwanda, South Africa, Botswana etc.) Nigeria is not necessarily the richest.

I wouldnt be suprised if the gulf states got in on the action too.

Fuck disabled people, I guess.

Thanks for sharing. I need positive conservation news to keep me sane.

Those aren’t mutually exlusive. Cute bad luck.

So how do we combat a DDOS on truth.

Clearly the previous orders of “truth” were not perfect either, and it’s discontent at the elite and coverups which Musk and Trump and other neofacist populists have manipulated to fuel their attacks on the establishment’s regime of truth. Ironically they are replacing something bad with something far worse.

How can leftists take the discontent with the current elite’s regime of truth and use it for the better ie. recruitment?

Wanna search on “google” without selling your data to google.

Well just like duckduckgo is basically bing but with trackers removed, startpage https://startpage.com/ is the same for google!

The supply demand issue is definitely a problem. Lot less people will to mod a community, even less people willing to post, than there are communities.

But something as big as !upliftingnews@lemmy.world should generate some interest (though one might wonder if it’s the good kind of interest.)

Over my lifetime, probably 30 times that.

If you’re serious about transferring ownership, perhaps crosspost to: !comm_revival@lemmy.dbzer0.com

I think there is confusion about what transmedicalism encompasses and what it does not.

Transmedicalism is the view that the mental state of transgenderism is caused by “gender dysphoria” a mental illness.

Gender affirming care does not require transmedicalism, and in fact many transmedicalists are against gender affirming care.

Some societies and cultures allow for forms of changing your gender, or have other gender roles that fulfil these (Fa’afafine, Hirjas etc.).

The concept of “mental disorder”/“mental illness”/“mental issue” just like “gender” is a social construct.

In a society where these other genders or changing genders is not commonly allowed, like modern western cultures, someone who doesn’t fit into the binary vision of gender might be seen as having a “disorder”.

Just like back in the day, in a society where gayness is erased and does not exist, a gay person might be seen as having a mental disorder.

But if we say being transgender is just a normal part of human diversity, like being gay — which I hope is the case, then it is not a “disorder”.

It’s very important to note that what is considered a “disorder” or not is very much a social construct.

Note: I’m not trans. If you notice any misconceptions or mistakes, please correct me. Thank you.

Well no, but I guess supportive transmedicalism is a step in the right direction, even if it’s still quite fucked.

(Equivalent being back in the day seeing being gay as being a mental disorder).
