Remember, everyone:

Landlords are parasites!

For those who doubt that claim:

Landlords squat on land that could otherwise have been sold to decent people and then hold it for ransom, forcing people living in poverty into desperation to keep their shelter, going so far as to cut back on food and other necessities to give 30% or more of their income to some asshole who's eating lobster everyday and living like a king off their hard work. So let's see... an organism that's so lazy it thrives by sucking away resources from other organisms that do all the hard work, to the point that it severely weakens or even kills the host, IE the very definition of "parasite." Sounds like a good definition of landlords too. You gonna try to refute that claim with any actual evidence or are you going to call me names and leave in a huff like so many conservatives and liberals do?

Okay so apparently intersex people don't like anyone using the term "hermaphrodite" unless they're intersex themselves, they claim it's "reclaiming a slur" like with "queer." The problem is, "hermaphrodite" isn't their word to reclaim. I know the term means something similar now because some scientist along the way was an idiot, but "hermaphrodite" in its scientific definition is being misused. It's basically just a weird pronunciation of the Goddess Hermaphrodite (her-maff-row-die-tee being the proper pronunciation, and "her-maff-row-dyte" being incorrect), who isn't a hermaphrodite in the scientific sense at all. She is specifically a trans woman. You can tell by the fact she has breasts, a dick, balls, and a womanly appearance, but does NOT have a vagina.

So yeah, intersex people, if my friend Fay wants to identify as a hermaphrodite, that's her right. The word isn't yours to reclaim, regardless of what some idiot scientist did to fuck up the meaning of the word. Hermaphrodite is a transgender female Goddess, not an intersex one.

Oh, and don’t even get me started on a related issue: my theory that transgender people should also be considered intersex, since the brain is a sex organ as well and their brains disagree with their genitals and society’s judgment.

Yeah

"Since it is so likely that (children) will meet cruel enemies, let them at least have heard of brave knights and heroic courage. Otherwise you are making their destiny not brighter but darker."
C. S. Lewis

Yes, but let them also hear of the power of individuals who are not trained as heroes to be heroes, fighting against oppressive enemies without expectation of backup coming, for far too often the world's knights in shining armor work for the villains. Let them hear of the brave men and women who fought against their employers for employee rights and were murdered for it and yet still won. Let them hear about people who rose up against oppressive governments and died to defeat fascism and other especially evil forms of government. Or at least let them hear stories that veil these ideals in metaphor, though probably that veil of metaphor should be so sheer it's almost not there because nobody seems to be able to connect the dots anymore.
