fun fact: trans megathread hit 1337 comments and the server crashed. coincidence? i think not

They aren't, its a sensationalist reactionary headline. The summit says this

Last month (in April 2023), the Global Methane Hub collaborated with the Ministries of Agriculture of Chile and Spain to convene the first-ever global ministerial on agricultural practices to reduce methane emissions. The ministerial brought together high-ranking government members to share global perspectives on methane reduction and low-emission food systems. The gathering led to a statement in which the nations committed to support efforts to improve the quality and quantity of, and access to, finance for climate change adaptation and mitigation measures in the agriculture and food sectors and to collaborate on efforts aimed at lowering methane emissions in agriculture and food systems

So they are hoping to reduce methane in farming, which could include no longer raising animals that have high methane outputs, or finding a better way to raise them with reduced methane.

except for supporting our trans comrades 💖

yeah im most impressed with what cuba is doing lately. im gonna recontact the cubans i talked to in a year or so to see what the limits there are to the lgbt legislation there. they basically granted every major demand the LGBT community put forward there, legally speaking. but i wonder most about enforcement, and i also wonder if there will be new unforeseen issues that arise or that most lgbt communities havent considered now that all the demands are met.

im talking about trans issues right now because ive personally talked to other trans people there. from what i understand in asia generally trans people have it slightly better socially than gay people for a variety of reasons

thats the thing though, is it oppression if they have no clue about you or what being trans even is? is it oppression by that country if other countries, which have expertise, arent providing aid and training for doctors on handling trans patients? i could see it as being a different aspect of life but i wouldnt feel comfortable comparing it to life in america, which is like living in hell because we are the preeminent culture war issue

and for the record, china does have trans healthcare in larger cities like shanghai and beijing, but there is a staffing issue, not enough docs with trans training which is again an issue of lack of awareness

youre pretty fucking weird. being trans sucks everywhere right now, almost equally except for in certain areas like florida where theyre doing genocide. at least in china they dont have a media circus shitting on us 24/7, and theyre not doing genocide like florida, so its quite a bit better than the USA. the USSR pioneered many trans surgeries for trans men in, iirc, Latvia, actually.

cuba is probably the best place for trans people in the world right now though, which again isnt saying much. the issue with cuba is they dont have enough docs for trans affirming care, though based on the cuban trans people ive talked to that is being resolved. trans healthcare is free there and with the new constitution, by law cuba has the best protections for LGBT people in the world.

youre just misinformed about, well, everything, really, and never talked with LGBT people in other countries.

what?

for real. compare cuba and china with other countries in their regions.

and im a trans communist, and so are many people on this site. you think we dont know our own history?

really makes you wonder about the proclivities of the devs tbh

so many dead bicycles, and china claims to have good public transport? smh
