hot take: hrt, gender therapy and trans surgeries should be free
if cis people don’t have to pay to have a body that doesn’t make them dysphoric, neither should trans people
So by that logic does that mean that I should get anti-depressants and all the other pills for my mental issues for free because the people who don’t suffer from them don’t have to pay to have them?
yes
And does that mean that corrective lenses should also be free, because people with good vision don’t need to pay to see clearly, and that devices to aid in mobility for people with limited mobility (from crutches to (practical) canes to wheelchairs to prosthetics) should also be free, because people who don’t have limited mobility don’t need to pay for them?
yes? why does everyone in the notes keep trying to come up with gotchas lmao everything to do with healthcare should be free
Then by that logic, healthy food and clean water should be free because without food and water we will die. Also, without water, hygiene will be minimal therefore increasing the chances of disease.
Yes. People should have access to a healthy happy life and the whole point of a society is to support eachother and work together. how brainwashed by capitalism are you to think food and water shouldn’t be free in an ideal world.
this post is such a wild ride every time. ‘so by this logic, people should have free access to the things they need to live and survive?????????’ like yes bitch, all of it !!!
I read a story on the news that has been haunting me the last week.
about a 17/18 year old Somali boy (some links report him aged 17 at the time of his death) here in London. He went missing december last year and his family filed a missing person claim with the police, their last memory of him was at his sister’s wedding.
…..about 2 weeks ago his body was discovered in the attic of a house belonging to a white couple who stabbed him to death.
His body was discovered in august 2018.
He died december last year.
his name was Abdi Ali
there is little to no media coverage…I only heard about it through twitter.
I cannot imagine what the family is going through, in Islam, people are traditionally buried immediately once they pass away……to think that your loved one, a teenager, went missing and for months, you hoped that they would come back (with no help from the police)….to find out that he has been dead for over 8 months and his body was decomposing in the attic of the ones that killed him who lived less than 1.5 miles away from your family home is just such a morbid and depressing thought.
I read somewhere that his parents came from Somalia a decade ago to start a better life and safer life for their children, my heart goes out them all…to think you uprooted your entire family unit from their ancestral land because of the threat of violence and then this happening.
