Hard for me to wrap my brain around what is going on in her head.

Nope, she doesn't see herself as a victim.

Of that I'm certain.

She's a victim, they're victims, and she sees herself as one of them and anything she does and they do even to her in this case can be excused by the "fact" everyone not white and male is a victim of white privilege man.

I can't follow the logic of "fighting for victims' rights by accepting being a victim", so I'll just chalk it up to FAFO.

I can't get over the fact there are Drs (possibly) that would do this to someone. I know there have been several busts of people doing procedures in their garages and may not be licensed physicians. The cement in the butts out of Florida comes to mind.

Sounds like her viewpoint was a bit skewed before the rape and she retreated back into her leftist ideals afterward.

Is it possible that she is psychotic with masochistic tendencies and desires?  :facepalm:  ;/  [barf]

50 shades of F'ed up

The long version is even more F'ed up

https://twitchy.com/aaronwalker/2024/03/11/haitian-rape-victim-says-she-was-grateful-for-the-experience-n2393838

So the list of left-wing ideas for unarmed self-defense for women:

Whistles
Puking/voiding waste on rapists (look it up)
"But I'm a Malcolm X scholar"

They got y'all covered, ladies.

But I wonder; if a cismale rapist attacks a transwoman, is that a victory for trans rights?

Popular rideshare app Lyft is using a transgender woman to promote its new Women+ Connect feature, an option that lets women and nonbinary drivers connect with women and nonbinary passengers.

The app's new feature will allow any driver who identifies as a woman to be connected with nonbinary or female passengers. Conversely, it will also allow passengers to choose whether they want a nonbinary or female driver to pick them up.

How long untll the wailing and gnashing of teeth that Lyft Riders are sexist when women drivers start not getting chosen?  I also wonder if that's one category (Women and non-binary drivers)?  I don't care so much about women drivers but given the option I probably would hit the toggle to exclude delusional drivers.  Seems a lot safer and less likely to get a lecture or inadvertently end up on someone's TikTok that way.

It looks to me like the driver or passenger can request to avoid men who don't brag about having a particular mental illness, but I don't think they allow you to request a man specifically.

I admit I may not be fully up-to-date with the kids genders these days, but I think if you opt NOT to have a woman driver, and NOT to have a non-binary driver, that kinda narrows down who will be picking you up.

Although, I suppose you still need to worry if the man is OEM or Aftermarket.

The opposite of "a world gone mad". A politician who actually votes based on his constituents wishes, regardless of if the are contrary to experts or the majority. While debating another politician telling him to ignore his constituents.

I don't disagree with that the way you understand it would lead to that being an option, but I'm not sure that your design is the one they've opted to go with.

As I read it, based on the description you can either:
Get the first driver/passenger available of whatever description.
Avoid male drivers/passengers and get the next female or mentally ill male available.

Maybe they're designing it the way you imagine with toggles for various genders and mental conditions, but I think it is unlikely they'd allow any sort of discrimination against protected categories.  It is far more likely that there is strictly an "avoid men" flag.

I would assume it's legal for a customer to discriminate based upon gender (actual or identified) but is it legal for an employer to have policies to encourage that?

Also two things I note:

1) They sure like using that "innocent little girl" photo, which looks nothing like how she/he looked, or acted, in the hospital video.

2) Suicide is "murder" if it's a transgender.

More fedgov rooting out those violent domestic extremists. Once again, when they use an example, it's 06JAN. No mention of antifa or any lefty violence.

Or if someone uses a gun. Then the NRA murdered them.
