DDG and Ecosia both use Bing as a provider for some of their results.
Something is currently broken on the side of Bing, and none of the search engines that use it as a source is able to get any results.
She’s so close to getting it, that gender is as much of a bullshit category as race is.
Frustrating to see someone understanding partially but not making the final leap to connect it.
She’s right to compare them. Both are assigned to you based on some physical and social characteristics and can predetermine your life to an extreme degree.
Ethnicity and gender are very similar in their core, in the way they exist as a social construct, or “collective hallucination” as I like to call it.
What’s she’s wrong at is thinking either is an immutable biological fact.
Most large-scale attempts at communism were managed in a centralized way top-down by force. One strong leader, usually with a cult of personality. Glorification of the military. Devaluation of individual life and emphasis on sacrifice for the common good. Suppression of dissent by violence.

No matter what so many people say, it’s not mandatory to have a partner!
Invest your effort in figuring out how to live with yourself. Build a life worth living on your own.
A right person might come, or not. But at least you didn’t waste your life chasing wrong goals.
Unfortunately I’m writing from personal experience.
After too many years I don’t think I’ll ever find anyone. But accepting it was a relief. It’s terrifyingly lonely at times, but at least I’m not suicidal any more. And I understand who I am and what is my way of life.
I can’t understate the benefits of understanding oneself can have on mental health.
They mean this type of traditional outdoor shoe. Espardenya is more of a Catalan thing, and popular as a souvenir. Though calling it “most popular” might be a stretch.
Yeah, she didn’t really address fraud comparisons. Went straight to sexism. Both can be true, and if you are a CEO of a medical company you should be ready to prove your shit works.
Why are Baltic and Nordic peoples still Christian? Why are Berbers still Muslim? Etc…
At some point the violence of conquest, colonialism and enforced religion is forgotten. And the new social structure becomes accepted and enforced internally like it’s the only natural way to do things.
