Can't overemphasize this. IT'S TRENDY (until surgery).

Wrong. It's trendy until hormones. Pretty much every child they put on puberty-prevention poison and wrong-sex hormones goes on to surgery. Almost all the others will detrans when they grow up a bit. This used to be acceptable Science but then that became politically incorrect so people will continue to be mystified this continues to be the general rule.

True, true.

It's trendy until hormones.

Over 90% of adults that identify as LGBT are not trans. So there's no "until hormones" for the vast majority of these people.

There's no lesbians, gays and bisexuals any more?

Do tell.

[–]iamonlyoneman 3 insightful - 2 fun3 insightful - 1 fun4 insightful - 2 fun -  (12 children)

So i guess we're talking about all those people who will go to the butcher without taking hormones because they're not trans?

[–]ActuallyNot 3 insightful - 1 fun3 insightful - 0 fun4 insightful - 1 fun -  (11 children)

What butcher are you talking about?

Being gay or bisexual obviously doesn't involved getting surgery.

[–]iamonlyoneman 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (10 children)

you're pretty bad at this whole "reading comprehension" thing, huh?

[–]ActuallyNot 3 insightful - 1 fun3 insightful - 0 fun4 insightful - 1 fun -  (9 children)

Not sure: What butcher are you taking about?

[–]iamonlyoneman 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (8 children)

surgery

[–]ActuallyNot 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (7 children)

Okay. That's what I understood. My reading comprehension isn't as bad as you seem to want to claim.

Again: Being gay or bisexual obviously doesn't involved getting surgery.

I don't see what's so bad about stopping puberty. It's brought nothing good to the world or anyone who's gone through it, sparing the momentary pleasure of orgasm.

This is what scares me when the first civilian-grade commercial brain chip gets released.

It will get trendy. The tiktok equivalent of that time period will show all the people around you using it. Thus the teenagers will start using it as well. The consequences will be disastrous

(inb4 someone compares this to the covid vaccine, there's a difference between something sold with the promise of saving your life and giving control of your brain to a private corporation for ENTERTAINMENT)

[–]Lovebirds_fury 3 insightful - 3 fun3 insightful - 2 fun4 insightful - 3 fun -  (5 children)

I seriously doubt people will accept that. It's one thing to be exploited with subscription services. Your bank account slowly bleeding. Money you can't see and you are less reluctant to spend. A chip in your brain is something more tangible. Nobody is going to undergo surgery for entertainment.

Even if you spend money in entertainment, you know that's something you can always cancel. If money is tight you can cut off unnecessary expenses. You can't do that with a brain chip. Unless the person is exceptionally stupid or they don't know what to do with their money, they won't get it. So that becoming trendy is even more unlikely

    I don't think most of the first world will have chips on their heads, that would require regulation.

    Comparing that to current technology... we still have games being released to last-gen consoles, ps4 and xbox one. It's completely possible to just outright not phase out a technology just because the new one is superior.

    Also SAO exists. Our narrative in this discussion would be a lot different if that anime didn't exist. The fact it does allows us to speak to the young generation in a language they understand on the dangers of these devices.

    I would agree but only in so far as we are pretending the technology actually works.

    If we pull out of sci-fi land back into the real world here the idea of creating any sort of computer to brain interface is still well in it's infancy. Especially since we don't really understand how the brain works.

    Stuff like, wearable electrodes that can detect brainwaves and use them to control things, like say, giving a paraplegic the ability to move their chair (or more likely a mouse cursor) by thinking is potential possible as a technology to be perfected. Stuff like, artificial eyes for blind people somewhat less so (there's some interesting ideas in the field of creating a kind of Sonic or tactile feedback that could convert visual data into sound or something you could touch as a way to let blind people "see". But that's not really a brain chip. The idea I saw that seemed to work the best was making some weird wearable tongue thing that let blind people taste light.)

    Now weird shit like this will probably take off on the market for novelty stuff. Be a long while before it's viable for what it's supposed to be viable for.

    I think wearable tech will be trendy but it won't get much mass market appeal beyond a few basic stand out technologies, such as a hearing aide that automatically translates foreign languages for you. If that tech can be made to work well it will be very popular.

    Though more likely some kind of smart glasses that add subtitles would be more practical.

    [–]hiimacosmocoin 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

    I seriously doubt people will accept that.

    I would've agreed before 2021. No, they'll follow the leader for sure. Especially if they discount/free the surgery. Maybe say it'll help detect covancer. You're aware there are already people doing chips in their hand to make transactions easier? Switzerland I think, can't be bothered to find it right now.

    (until surgery).

    The vast majority of LGBT people are LGB. Fewer than 10% would be Trans.

    [–]jet199 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

    Not anymore

    [–]ActuallyNot 3 insightful - 1 fun3 insightful - 0 fun4 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

    A high school lgbt club is dominated by lgb. In order, probably lbg with t a very distant fourth.

    You need to be manufacturing outrage to suggest that experimenting with sexuality means experimenting with gender reassignment surgery.

    And the lunatics are using this as an example of genocide, claiming that they are all troons but because they were oppressed into not being subjected into mutilation, that they revert to normal and thus a 'trans life' has ended or something.

    [–]jet199 2 insightful - 5 fun2 insightful - 4 fun3 insightful - 5 fun -  (3 children)

    Arrows to the knee are a literal genocide of adventurers.

    [–]Alphix 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (2 children)

    Except being an adventurer has nothing genetic to it, just like trannies.

    [–]Vulptex 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

    They actually do. Genetics manipulate your behavior.

    [–]Alphix 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

    Well... If you're going to get all pedantic, then go right ahead.

    Killing off people who have any given habit is STILL NOT A GENOCIDE.

          who else is pushing it?

          they trannies don't have that kind of power.. it was all given to them

          by who?

          [–]jacques1102 3 insightful - 2 fun3 insightful - 1 fun4 insightful - 2 fun -  (0 children)

          They latched onto LGB and democrats believe that the two are the same.Hell, there's such a divide in america atm that the left made it a left vs right issue.The only reason the left is pushing it is because they want to be on the"right side of history".Not to mention there's a huge money making scheme with the medical community.There's a lot better explanations rather than "everything is the jews fault"

          Trans latched onto LGB groups such as Stonewall in the UK, HRC in the USA, and neo-leftist politicians.

          To some people who have a hammer, everything is a nail.

          Besides, they should know that it's really the trannies who are ruining everything. 😝

              Not sure. I know that some East Asian countries are like Thailand with the Thai shemales, and south Asian countries such as India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh do but they have what were once called eunuchs, transvestites, or hijra but they now call them all "trans".

              Brasil also would push the trans stuff or started a long time ago before the USA and Europe did.
