Hah, go figure. Russia’s connected to every right wing moral panic, it seems. From trump to migrants to using gender for the purpose of discrediting people of color. It’s always that idiot in Moscow.
Russia deserves to be booted from the internet at this point. A glorified gas station, home to massive numbers of bots and agitators, allowed to undermine democracies worldwide. Cut the cables. (Install a quick-disconnect? It’s like a series of pipes, right? /s)
Then we need to deal with poorly moderated sites (like Elon’s) that encourage dis/misinfo and hate to spread, under the guise of “freeze peach”.
It is already, from both sides. There’s massive censorship from the inside, with a killswitch already in place waiting for a moment to actually disconnect Russia from the global internet. As well as sanctions and embargoes from every other site, no matter if they’re commercial or not, just because admins couldn’t be bothered implementing anything better than blocking the entire Russian IP range.
Fuck you for saying this, though. Don’t call to make the lives of anti-war people harder than it already is, you’d just be throwing more fuel into the fire by proving the Russian propaganda to be true.
Just following 500 years of russian tradition. Spreading those ‘traditional russian values’
Damn Russian government big mad huh?
I think we can just assume by now that, if there’s any chance there’s would be some momentum behind a protest that could be disruptive to our society, the Kremlin troll factories are going to do their best to rile them up. I suspect things like the fascist protests in the UK and the trucker protests throughout Europe to have been heavily promoted by them to try to weaken and sow dissent in our cultures, Kremlin & China have troll factories churning for this sort of thing 24/7. In Spanish speaking social networks, the push to shove propaganda supporting Maduro in Venezuela has been unreal.
This community when the far-right in the west does something horrible: “I sleep”
This community as soon as there’s the slightest evidence linking it to Russia: “Real shit”
Fuck Putin don’t get me wrong, but take some perspective and reflect on the failures of your countries and your systems
The fuck you on about?
Trump and Nazis are being bashed all day every day on here.
I beg you browse through the currently popular posts, took me quite a bit of scrolling to find one post about the far right in England, and that’s after 5 posts attacking Russia (which, again, fair enough)

So what, are you defining what a woman is for the rest of the world or what? Why is it so important if you personally think someone looks like a woman or not?

Removed, sexism.
If your world view requires you to proactively hate people for disagreeing with it, as much as is happening here, you might want to reconsider your beliefs.
my belief that your belief has little impact on the reality?
Fuck off bigot. She’s cis. Doesn’t matter how she looks.
Nobody fucking asked you.
The question that everyone’s skipping over here to shout at you is this: In your conception, what does a woman look like? You must have a description ready to hand if you’re able to look at this athlete and say “that’s not it”.
A woman is a featherless biped.
Tap for spoiler
Please NSFW that, I don’t want to be the creep looking at naked women at work.
Maybe I don’t know how women looks but I know how testosterone looks. And definetly she have a lot of it.
Well. I tried. That’s not really a good faith response to my question. If you’re not here to talk, you’re here to try and force people to listen. ‘Cept that doesn’t work so hot on the internet 🤣
See ya, Noisy.
Maybe the concept of men and women can be a social construct but if someone do too much testosterone they will always look like someone who done too much testosterone… it’s just science.
As a dude who unironically wrote the words “do too much testosterone”, I wouldn’t be invoking science if I were you 🤣🤣🤣
Ok then explain me what doing too much testosterone do to someone’s body?
See, this isn’t how this works. You came in and made a claim. You said the athlete didn’t look like a woman. I asked you what you thought a woman looks like. You shifted the goal posts and said “nah, let’s talk about what testosterone does to the body”. Next you’ll be asking me to prove some bassackward negative I never introduced. I know how this plays out and it’s boring.
I’m not following you down this rabbit hole. This is goodbye, my dude.
In women, it helps with fertility on in vitro treatments. It’s a necessary hormone for everybody.
Are you claiming Khelif was doping with testosterone? Because no one official has made such an accusation.
Think about it, maybe she is doing testosterone as a cheating method thinking “with all this stuff of LGBT+ hype going there is no problem”
That is one hell of an accusation to throw out with literally zero evidence
No one has made that accusation but you. So maybe you should think about it.
Khelif was not disqualified by the IBA because of testosterone. They will not say what test she took, they will not say who administered it, they will not say the results, but they will say she wasn’t tested for testosterone.
Does that not strike you as odd?
Not white enough for you, I take it?
Don’t be gross and weird.
Removed, sexism.
Literally not.
