@persagen @MHowell that much money has an adverse effect on individual human beings. And in any society that is not corrupted, the majority of that money could be used to fix many of our problems, name it, Infrastructure, public education, social welfare. Sadly the rumor which is not hard to believe is that Capitalism needs a slave class to keep the tycoons rolling in obscene wealth. ⚡️

Limited chars to 500 but I want to spell out -- hyperreductionistic tendency of a simple (Right Wing) mind to link Gender:Sex:Identity as 1:1:1 pathway is inappropriate established BY science as early as ... insert case of congenital adrenal hyperplasia here.

Hell, by Gregor Mendel.

It dismisses the unpredictability of a complex system emerging from genes, epigenetics, time sensitive developmental periods, hormone messengers, concentration of hormones, thermal temperature, ETC ETC.
