X, the social media platform owned by Trump megadonor Elon Musk, is promoting Trump campaign-curated content to all U.S. users, regardless of whether they have opted out of Trump-related content.
On the platform formerly known as Twitter, banner ads for the Trump campaign donning the #Trump2024 tag appear for all U.S. users, even those who’ve blocked words, topics, and hashtags related to the candidate or his campaign or muted the advertiser.
Additionally, the #MAGA tag displays an edited image of the former president from his attempted assassination and the #Trump2024 hashtag displays an American flag.
It is unclear whether the Trump campaign paid for the images on the #Trump2024 and #MAGA tags, though an advertisement for the tag on the site’s trending page reads “Promoted by Team Trump.” As Mashable noted, it is the first time the platform has enabled the image feature to promote a specific political candidate.
Clicking the Trump2024 tag also prompts American flag graphics to flood the screen.
leftist here, I’m fighting against sex changes for children (specifically intersex infants)
And how is that an economic redistributive position ?
That doesn’t surprise me. The left and right paradigm flattens a ton of complexity into a boolean spectrum when the reality is far more complex than that.
As a leftist I think that transsexuals should not be discriminated against. I’m also highly disturbed by the idea of medicalizing everything and turning a sexual identity into an excuse for prescribing dangerous and harsh drugs and body modification surgery. The whole thing feels like an op by the for-profit healthcare industry.
“I don’t think transsexuals should be discriminated against, expect medical discrimination. Cus conspiracy theories.”
Pushers shouldn’t be pushing. The sickness industry is a vile and evil institution that ruins people’s health and cuts up their bodies for profit. That is a leftist position.
i know a lot of trans girls who source their own estrogen or get it from the black market (they also tend to be socialist ra types)
