A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
6) No US Politics.
Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !askusa@discuss.online

It is. I will be fighting for them until we get it all back. 🤷♂️
Edit: I think the commenter above edited their comment after I replied. What I replied to was a pithy "tell American women and trans people it's a setback" with no real elaboration.
So you do acknowledge that some of the above have been completely dismantled? That was the original discussion.
Again, affirmative action is gone. As is the EEOA. As is federal protection for abortions. As is the acknowledgment that trans folks exist.
These things literally do not exist anymore. They have to be completely resuscitated. And again, I didn’t say it’s all over and don’t try. So stop saying/implying that.
You keep reading things into my comments that make me think either you are having a bad day or you're not worth discussing this with. In either case: thanks, but I'll be stepping out of this now.
No I am responding to what you are writing. Feel free to step away.
