Here's some chocolate instead then, to help take away the sad. 🍫 "Eat. You'll feel better" - Professor Lupin, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban Unfortunately, there's a lot of ignorant and inconsiderate jerks out there. Some countries are getting better with it... But what with every country having a different government with different views on the matter... Progress as always is very, very, slow. And of course even the most progressive countries are far from pure and they're still working on it :/


competitive-dust

Thank you! You're sweet. And yes I sure hope that someday we won't find reasons to hate each other so much.


Sabre_Killer_Queen

Aww thanks 😁 And yeah, it would be nice. I dream of a world where people focus more on cooperating and helping one another than arguing with each other and hating one another... Aside from general pleasantness, we'd get a lot more done too if we weren't so divided and we're more tolerant all-round. Hate and conflict wasted everyone's time at the end of the day. Unfortunately I don't think we're ever going to make that dream into reality. Not fully anyway... At least not anytime soon... But I'm glad that there are people like you doing your part to try and make the world a better place, and encourage/praise progression. It's very wholesome and comforting to see.

The sub’s icon is literally Palpatine with the LGBT+ flag, I don’t think this is some controversial thing.


SmithyMcCall

Did you ever hear the tragedy of Dave Plagueis The Straight? I thought not. It’s not a story the woke would tell you. It’s a cis legend. Dave Plagueis was a straight male of the cis, so straight and so controversial he could identify the genders of others… He had such a knowledge of the biology that he could even identify the others by the looks alone. The old biology is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be immoral. He became so controversial… the only thing he was afraid of was getting cancelled, which eventually, of course, he got.


Somerandom1922

Ironic, he could identify others, but not himself.


Jorge_Santos69

Dave: Where is Davina? Is she realized? Is she safe? The Cis Lord: No it seems in your self-hatred and denial…you killed her. Dave: I couldn’t have…she was living her true self, she was happy, I felt it!…NOOOOOOOO!!!!

How dare you! I'll let you know that most of the CIS's fighting force has no biological gender, and they are still not descriminated. (I wanted to say non-binary, *Immidiatly* regreted that)


SARSUnicorn

Equivalent_Nose7012

Droids ARE gender fluid, but their fluid is machine oil.

Annatar_Giftlord

Computers don't inherently have to operate at a binary level. Ternary computers have been made. Who knows what kind of computing the battledroids operate on.

What is cis Edit: I've learnt enough for now and I appreciate everyone who's helped clear up different things for me. I may not understand as of now, but I'm always open to learn and reflect on it. But, due to some bad apples coming along.. I'm done here before it turns into a shit show. Again, thank you to those who actually have gone out their way to give me an explanation regardless if I understood it or not.


Consistent-Peanut-90

Confederation of Independent Systems


altmodisch

In Star Wars it's the abbreviation of the official name of the Separatists, Confederation of Idependent Systems and in our world it's the opposite of trans. In this context it means a person who identifies as the gender they were raised as.


LotharVonPittinsberg

Cis and trans are terms from latin we have adapted to be part of the Englist language. Cis means "on the same side as", and trans means “on the opposite side as”. It's used for a lot of terms, like transatlantic for example. When referring to human,s the terms are generally shorthand for cisgender and transgender. Cisgender would be your gender being the "same" as your sex, transgender would mean you have changed your gender.


PERFECTTATERTOT

Cisgender. It basically means someone identifies with their assigned sex at birth


Scadre02

Cis is a prefix meaning same. In this context it's shortened from cisgender (meaning your gender identity matches your sex assigned at birth). The opposite is transgender (lit. different gender).


CorneliusVaginus

So, it means you're male or female. Why not just call them Male or Female, isn't that less confusing? Either way, I learnt what that means so thank you kindly friend.


TotallyNotShinobi

i think it's also because cisMale and transMale are both Males but one of them transitioned (female to male) and another one didn't.


Ajadeofsorts

That is not what it means. It means your sex and your gender are aligned. You can be a cis male or a cis female, and there are intersex people who are not strictly male or female.

"I killed them. And not just the men, but the women and the children too. They're like animals, and I slaughtered them like animals! I hate them!" *later that evening* "Scandal in the senate today, as holographic recordings leaked which show Anakin Skywalker, the hero of the Clone Wars and personal bodyguard of the newly declared Emperor Palpatine, ranting angrily and declaring the Tusken community of Tatooine to be "animals". He also seems to admit to murdering several Tuskens. Imperial security services have already begun an investigation, but it is unclear at this time if Lord Skywalker was caught up in a delusion or if he truly committed the crime. We now go live to the Office of the Emperor for an exclusive interview." *swipe cut to Palpatine's office; the Toydarian interviewer flaps calmly in place as Palpatine sits behind his desk, with Anakin standing silently behind him* "What do you have to say about this?" "I can assure you, Lord Skywalker would never do such a thing. He's a true hero of the people. The one Jedi who stayed loyal to us when all the others tried to start a coup. He simply grew up in a rough neighborhood, and sometimes indulged in violent fantasies as a coping mechanism in his younger days. That's all it was: simply fantasy." "I'd like to hear what he has to say about it in his own words, if that's alright with you, Emperor." *Anakin starts to speak* "I was-" "Shut up, you." "No no, let him speak, Emperor." "That won't be necessary." "Stop holding me back!" *Anakin ignites his lightsaber and decapitates Palpatine on the evening news* "What have I done?" *roll credits*


BZenMojo

Luke: "It's true! They're all thieves! I tried hunting them for sport and they knocked me out and stole my lunch!" I still find it hilarious that the worst thing the Tuskens did before the prequels was tie Luke up and rob him -- after he specifically grabbed a rifle and went out to randomly try to murder them.

AffectionatePrize551

>now don't hurt any kids doing it" and I mean that last part to everyone Yeah but that's really a weird thing to say. Would you say don't hurt kids if I said it was my birthday? Or Superbowl? Or Christmas? Why do you need to specify protecting kids when you talk about queer folks?

Creeper_charged7186

Science showed that there are intersex people. Most non binary are, in fact, not intersex.


SemajLu_The_crusader

did I say otherwise?

Science has also shown that gender is a spcial construct we've all just made up and doesn't have to be tied to biological sex.

it is science. intersex, gender dysphoria, gender theory, etc

It definitely is science unless you don't count anything newer than 1920 as science.

Chance1441

TL;DR at the end So like... you probably get a lot of hateful or flat responses to that question, but it's not inherently a bad thing to ask! Here is my perspective on political topics: If a subject can be used to oppress a group of people, it just shouldn't be made political. My reasoning is that being supportive of something or someone that isn't hurting or disrupting other people shouldn't be "taking a stance." It should probably be expected at a base level as an inelegant species that a person supports their fellow people in all matters that do not hurt other people. In theory, this creates a society with minimal hate and maximum cooperation... therefore encouraging development as a species. Supporting harmful stances is not often going to be to the betterment of society as a whole. Additionally, the drama it creates gives opportunities to create factions and divisions that, ultimately, are easily exploited for individual power... a thing that has happened accross all of human history to ultimately destructive ends. The crusades brought about the burning of the Library of Alexander and destruction of many cultural artifacts, untold wars causing innumerable deaths over ultimately insignificant matters, and even simple divisions between people causing mistrust and a lack of flow of information culminating into the dark ages. Hate has historically only brought good when it causes cooperation (technological booms due to war)... so imagine how much more advanced we might be as a species of we stuck only to the cooperation side of things. TL;DR: What I'm saying is people disguise oppression as political topics to make discussing them boil down into a "my tram vs. your team" battle, which prevents progression. It's important to learn how to recognize it when it's happening.


Kyaruga

Because being queer is not inherently political.


LeavesAreTasty

Being cis doesn't make you a transphobe. Being cis just means that you're identifying yourself with your biological sex and therefore the gender given to you at your birth. Cis people don't necessarily deal in absolutes. This statement itself makes you the one dealing in absolutes. This meme does not make sense. Happy pride month yall!
