Not really. The current ruling party (Labour) are pretty crap but nothing compared to the openly genocidal US Republicans. And the 3rd largest party (Liberal Democrats) are pretty socially progressive.

Disdain for an entire country of diverse people based on the (stupid, bad) actions of the minority in power is a bit much…
Really interesting link, thanks for sharing.
Anarchism does not (necessarily) call for a total lack of organisational structure, first and foremost it calls for the abolition of unjust hierarchies. I think a lot of anarchists would broadly agree with the main points of that article.
If you think there is no viable alternative to captitalism, I’d highly recommend the book “Capitalist Realism” by Mark Fisher, which tackles that very subject :)
btw please write “trans woman” instead of “transwoman”, I’m sure you didn’t intend it but the latter is frequently used by as a dog-whistle by fascists to avoid admitting we are women.
The world doesn’t (need to) run on giving only what you owe. People donate to creators not through moral obligation, but because they like what the creator has made and they want to reward them for it and/or enable them to make more of it.
Why do you think Patreon (and others) is so popular? Any cynic would surely point out that from a purely transactional outlook, the donors are getting a bad deal. And yet.
Jesse what the fuck are you talking about
Even if you want to separate sex and gender and define sex using sexual characteristics (not actually a good idea, see works by Judith Butler and Julia Serano among others, although I wont fight that point here), almost no sexual characteristics are immutable. The only ones that I can think of are chromosomes and gametes, but chromosomes aren’t even binary (or observable without a microscope) and gametes arent a good basis either – should being infertile affect your sex?
