Personally I think not having karma limits is nice currently! I understand why they were used but grinding karma as a lurker on reddit was frustrating.

    You’re not exactly bringing up cool gadgets at the moment, kid. You’re deliberately poking a sensitive issue for attention. Waging that social war you speak of. Pretending like transgender rights are only an American issue is pretty darn comical of you when it’s one of the political hot-topics in most occidental countries. As you know, or you, fellow “not American”, wouldn’t be bothered enough to dump that ^ wall of text up there.

    Also seriously? Bringing up the dog whistle that is “HRT for children”? Doesn’t happen and you damn well know it if you’ve read half as much as you’re implying. Teenagers are sometimes allowed to take hormone blockers to delay puberty. This is risky, especially for AFAB youth, since taking hormone blockers basically puts them through menopause, hormonally speaking. Which is why in some places they can instead directly take hormones after being evaluated by psychologists, sexologists, you name it. And with their parents’ consent. Not on a whim. Not for attention. Not to be ‘trendy’.

    Take all the time you want misrepresenting studies and articles, you’re still not owed anyone’s energy “debating” you. I already put way too much into writing this. It’s not unfair censorship to shut down antisocial trolls who only want to argue in bad faith about the latest political issue. No matter the talking point, this hijacking of conversations doesn’t lead to chill spaces. It’s not fun. You’re just being an asshole right now. Go be angry somewhere else, or have that “debate” in a relevant thread.
