@MarkKol That is crazy to think it's that easy. The USA probably needs to reevaluate and move it's border issue a bit higher on the priority list.

@Kksd74628 The word 'Trans' is mostly as a prefix to most other words to add the meaning of 'going beyond' or 'above one or two things'. For example, the word 'transformation' is a modified version of the word 'formation', which means that multiple things form together as a singular formation, or when a single thing 'conforms' to other things in nature, like ant colonies working as one unit, or birds flying in formation. Therefore, the word 'transformation' is adding meaning to formation that's going beyond formation. For example, a caterpillar has a form, and is a formation of other components and compositions, begins it's life small, and then gets bigger as it's eating leaves, until it reforms itself into a shiny chrysalis, or sometimes a silk form, then transforms into a butterfly, which later feeds off of necter and mates with other butterflies, and lays eggs, and restarts the cycle again. So...to me, when someone says they're transgender, their sense of self image that identifies with their biological sex has 'gone beyond' the normal sense of the two gender roles here, as female and male. So, in practice, to me, is that these transgendered people, who are trans-sexual in nature, would look like an asexual person, beyond the constraints of the biological and psychological pulls of sexuality, which is extremely rare in nature. However, the majority of the time when someone says they're a transgender, they're still deeply confused about themselves deep down, and the ego doesn't know what to tether and attach itself to, as a male or as a female because it doesn't have stronger attachments to either gender, so we end up with gender dysphoria in most cases.

@John Paul What do you consider as enough rights for a transgendered person? Why are you asking why can't parents teach their kids about sex when they feel comfortable? In what setting do you have in mind?

@John Paul I think the science being done on this is towards the gender dysphoria, and less about transgenderism, although this science isn't that common and on the fringes and is still ongoing.

@Enigma777 Interesting video, I'll share my thought and feeling about this after watching and contemplating a bit on it.

@HMD This is interesting, but I've always felt that the content and the details tend to be far more stickier than the context, as most people look up to the science community nowadays due to the human brain and big bang theory replacing Jesus Christ and God as our narrative mythology story. Due to the differences in stages of development, cognitive and moral development, personality types and traits, states of consciousness, life experiences and other lines of development in domains of life, as well as ideological indoctrination from upbringing and culture. How I like to think and make sense of what I said, and parse the addictive context, is to think of it like a 3d modeling system, or a digital drawing program dealing with layers. If we look at the Shinzen Young modal for mindfulness with labelling, and we see the following categories of SIGHT/SOUND/FEELINGS with their INNER/OUTER distinctions followed by BEHAVIOR/SITUATIONS, we can apply more mindfulness towards these contexts by being more observant with each element of that context, by noting, labeling and savoring the raw sensory data of that context, layer by layer. Or we go with the contemplation method and start rom scratch, and either contemplate that context, or target the assumptions behind the contexts first, contemplate using a journal and using the mind much more.

@Razard86 Oh boy, if America's corruption makes you queasy, just wait until you see how corrupt Russia/China and even North Korea can really get in comparison.

@Israfil That's so adorable, kind of like meerkats.?

@Enlightement But a wall is a start first. Other than than what do you think will help with the border issues?

@Tanz Or they could see what North Korea has done, see that AI gun robot, and start placing non-lethal robots like that, you know, shoot rubber bullets into those trying to smuggle drugs and people illegally. Mile per mile a robot is watching.

@Leo Gura Gophers?

@M A J I While ridiculous this is a plausible theory. Remember Leo's health video and health crisis? He mentioned he explored western medicine and alternative medicine, and told in his vlog that a psychic woman referred him to a gifted person in the middle of the desert, somewhere in Las Vagas, and the person used demonic evocation to try and cure his ailment? A user speculated that Leo visit E.A Koetting, before getting banned.

@John Paul I think it's now a politicized issue, and even before that it's probably expensive to build a properly defensible wall from one side to the other side spanning the length of north Mexico and southern USA states. USA too invested spending on the military complex, prison system and other social things.

@Israfil However, pre pubescent children to adolescent teens will still be curious about sex and explore their bodies privately, and sometimes when playing games with their peers in places outside of sight. Also, even if we just focus on basic areas of education like math, science, English language and other languages, history(of their home country firstly, before world history or not even this), PE, option classes, this won't prevent them exploring sexuality, nor would it prevent indirect notions and ideas of sex appearing in their minds. For example, sexual themes sometimes appear on tv shows, movies, radio, news papers, computer/mobile with other social media sites or other websites, in conversations with peers(the boy/girl locker room talks), marketing and advertisements, and so on. What do we do with so many indirect ways that sexuality and ideas of it get to their minds? If they don't have some basic sex education, and awareness at least sometimes knowledge of other gender roles and sexual orientations, especially trans gender, how does this lack help with the culture shock of these children seeing trans and other different genders for the first time?

@Sucuk Ekmek Seems like there's both too many farm animals and too many humans here. If we don't figure out how to decrease numbers and manage consumption of limited resources we'll end up like the trapped flies and other insects in a jar, eating each other alive or die of depleted resources. I especially don't like vigilantes, or mob justice as that can quickly lead to violence and actually more injustice.

@mr_engineer My Utopia is best Utopia. Looks like heaven. You can have financial freedom, whilst feeling lazy sometimes. No, some slave wage work is still needed, some has to handle the mail, the roof, the plumbing, the garden, the garbage, strippers ect... No, some people, dependent on stage of development(Stage blue-orange), cognitive(Visual/auditory learners) and moral development(Mostly for one's family and community, and country at best), personality types and traits(Logicians and those score high on close mindedness, conscientious, disagreeableness thrive in mundane, rigid schedules.), life experiences(Less travel and worldly knowledge, more interest in citizenry and being a good Samaritan), and other lines of development and ideologies indoctrinated into one from upbringing. Some thrive in what you consider boring environments, work on those soul draining works fine, which allows you to thrive elsewhere. Imagine that! You get your entrepreneurial dream because some other person has the role of soldier, police, file clerk investigator, editor and so on. No, we still need AI more than ever, as technological development, the internet and other AI tech, eventually AGI tech, like other lines of development are necessary for SURVIVAL of complex human life of today. It's just the genie is out of the bottle and we have to deal with it, no amount of wishing to reverse time and live the romantic times of primitive human life is satisfactory to today's human needs and wants. We just need to figure out ways to slow down this technological arms race first, to let other lines of development pick up the pace so that we stop living in the dark ages wielding country effect tech.

@RickyFitts As long as users behave general nice, and follow forum guidelines to a T it shouldn't be an issue, until some just keep testing the boundaries. If you fuck around too much you find out, so might as well act nice.

@mr_engineer It's a similar writing structure to the chat bot, you introduce your issue, spend 3 or so paragraphs, listing explanations and maybe evidence, and finally it concludes very similarly to the intro.

So, where's our common sense meter at? Is it common sense to not do violence or demonize strange looking people, or is it common sense to not give these people rights and recognition and continue discriminating trans people?

@Leo Gura We should give it a hard try at least to slow down the exponential growth of AI and technological develop, so that human development and developmental psychology can catch up. Literally it's pretty dangerous the way things are going, if they remain in this trajectory we're mostly still monkeys but now we have country effecting technology instead of sticks and stones.

@Epikur For fuck's sake, now food is being politicalized? This culture and information warfare is getting a bit out of hand mate.

@zurew Isn't the OP more concerned for the safety and well being of the trans community? By having more legal rights doesn't this prevent, even if a little it, discriminations to them by the majority groups?
