It sounds like you're arguing that since all these traits are used to determine between a single binary classification (or spectrum) in different ways that there's no multi-dimensionality but perhaps you're misunderstanding.
If biological sex is something that can be accurately represented in a certain multidimensional space then every axis will necessarily have the same type of value (a range from female to male) but a different orientation (or trait being evaluated). This is the same as how you place a mathematical point in space by using 3 axes with the same type of value (-inf to +inf) but different orientations. You need all 3 axes to place the point and can't collapse its location down to a single axis. Similarly we should understand biological sex as something that can be measured by specific traits but never collapsed down to a single value and thus is intrinsically and inescapably multidimensional.
Female to male is one dimension of measurement, yes, but that's only meaningful for individual traits. An individual has many traits and so must be described in multidimensional terms even for a single metric.
Something made to be read isn't going to be as good listened too, especially by something automated. Anyway, there are billions of us and I'm sure there are enough creators to make articles for you to read and videos for OP to listen to while doing whatever. It's not a zero sum game.
Checks on power work only work by the coercion of other power. Given that power and coercion are thus unavoidable threats it's reasonable to diffuse power as widely as possible so that no one person or organization gains a monopoly on it. The threat of abuse of power remains but the threat of overwhelming power and overwhelming abuse are substantially lessened when all work collectively to ensure than none can gain it.
Any system that depends on one person or organization wielding a large amount of power to do good is immediately subverted as soon as they choose evil, and given all that power the benefits they stand to gain from being evil are very tempting.
Factory farms produce the overwhelming majority of all animal products because the only way to deliver those to a substantial amount of people is to industrialize the process. It is incredibly difficult to avoid supporting factory farms without being vegan. Even if it were possible, would it somehow suddenly be right to kill another sentient being solely for your own pleasure just because it happened outside of an industrial process?
I'd love to never see this particular pedo's face again. Every time I see it I see that video of him copping a feel on a fucking child pops back into my head.
Right? If it were a poor person they'd have zero qualms about putting them in jail while sorting it all out too. There is nothing that can disguise that our 'justice' system exists almost entirely to suppress the poor and enable the rich.
Missing context: Humans have the best health outcomes on a plant based diet and it takes nearly 10 times more water to get an equivalent amount of calories out of animal sources compared to plants.
You should care about environmental costs in general, not just when it's a convenient data point for hating on AI. I mean, you should hate on generative AI, it's garbage, but don't stop there. Animal agriculture is an environmental disaster of outlandish proportions and it's easy (with a tiny bit of education) to eat plants instead of animals and stop being a part of the problem.
It would be hypocritical to advocate against AI but also give them your money 3 times a day, wouldn't it?
The pride bit isn't about being queer full stop, it's about having the courage to be openly queer in a society that might try to kill you for it. It's about reversing the shame they attempt to force on us.
Sure, those who can afford to pay for games should support the artists that made them. Those who can't afford games should pirate them. We should all pirate in instances when paying would give our money to evil people, and we should all work towards a society where people can afford to make good art whether or not there's profit to be had from it.
Mom is beginning to see through her cultural conditioning to things that the owner class meant to be invisible. Mom is made of meat and the flesh on her table was once an individual like her, maybe even a mom like her, and Mom let herself become complicit in a system that makes one victim the victim of another victim all for the enrichment of the cruel and hateful creatures with economic power.
The artistic talent here is remarkable but the title 'Symbiosis' (as defined as a mutually beneficial relationship between different species) does not accurately describe the relationship between man and horse. Man enslaves and exploits Horse for labor. Given that Horse must be 'broken' to be ridden and caged to prevent him from finding his freedom we should assume that he does not desire to be so used because it does not bring him a pleasure greater than freedom.
Listen, AI is great when it's folding proteins or looking for novel solutions to math problems, doing work that can be checked by human minds to make sure the logic of the AI and the logic of the problem are in accordance. It's universally reviled when it replaces art with garbage. Art is meant to enrich human experience, to help us understand, to help us grow, to be an authentic expression of our inner world. AI has no inner world. It has no experience and no understanding. Perhaps there's something to the arguments of those who hate it?
Perhaps in this world where so much of real value has already been taken from us we reject this most recent attempt to take away the thing that satisfies one of our most basic needs?
Have you considered what you're looking at and what it means? Because the work of a human artist has meaning even if the technology is old. Hallucinations of a machine have no meaning. If there is no meaning the act of consuming the media will hollow you out instead of filling you up.
lol, if you were brought to full weight before slaughter you'd already be dead and I wouldn't have to listen to your nonsense. From the point of view of the victim, who is placed in what's colloquially referred to as a rape rack and has an arm and an needle forced inside her, it's a rape. If she wasn't restrained she'd kick her assailant or run away. Anybody believing this weird claim about veal can go look up veal farms, endless horrible rows of tiny enclosures containing baby cows.
Let's not forget that farms have an exemption from bestiality laws because those laws would prevent them from doing what they do.
That's kind of a crap article with a fair bit of obvious bias. They're parroting common weak anti-vegan talking points.
Capitalism is what's actually at play here. Veganism is and has been clearly rising in popularity forever, but capitalists got it in their head that the big moment of cultural shift was here and they made a bunch of new investments hoping to ride the wave. That wave isn't quite here, and so they overreached, and now they don't have the demand they gambled on. Veganism is still on the rise, steadily, but we aren't at a tipping point yet.
Who give a fuck about the money, though? Veganism is a rights issue. It's about the radical idea that torturing and raping and killing animals who are substantially the same as us is a fucked up and terrible thing to do. We do violence towards other humans because of this pervasive idea that it's okay to hurt others for our own pleasure if we can just figure out a convincing enough excuse. Vegans reject all excuses. If there's a victim, there's a crime. You rape a cow to get her pregnant so you can kill her baby for veal and milk her so hard she bleeds and then rape her again and keep the cycle going until she dies on her feet, all for nothing more than your own pleasure, then a rape was committed, and so was a murder, and so was an insane violation of the bodily autonomy of another sentient being. We don't care who the victim is, only that they exist.

Yes, I will personally try to make all abuse illegal. Are you insinuating that some abuse should be legal so long as the victim is in a certain class?

Let them be tired then.
