TopicIf an ultrasound revealed pre-birth that your child had a medium to serious

The problem is that fetal anomalies in ultrasound are not all or nothing conditions. Soft call findings like an echogenic bowel or echogenic cardiac focus may heighten a suspsicion for high risk women for certain genetic disabilities. But then you need to look at positive predictive values and the differences between screening and invasive diagnostic testing, which carries its own unique risks.

The bottom line is that people who hard call kill it without appropriate counseling are fucking idiots, point blank. And none of it really matters on this board since yall will never carry a pregnancy and literally have zero autonomy over this kind of decision.

Allow the person to be born but put it up for adoption. Once you're dead there's no way to undo it, but at least if you're alive, you have the choice to be dead.

How can I assume that this child doesn't want to live? I can't. Let the child have a shot at life.

I don't think that person was being an asshole at all. It's good to stand up for yourself when someone is directly insulting you and fuck anyone who disingenuously applies phony rules of politeness on someone who's being publicly humiliated.


the people trying to pretend like they're above this are people who are currently benefiting from people standing up for themselves and others in the past. sometimes verbally, sometimes physically, sometimes with an army. what privilege or freedoms did these disingenuous critics win for anybody? I wish one of them could answer that.

this person stood up for themselves. as hilarious as the shit was, the outrage was legitimate.


No It wasn't. Threatening to beat up some nerdy kid and vandalizing his place of work over arguably unintentional pronoun misuse when you look like a male hooker in drag and no real person's first thought would be that you are a lady is not legitimate.

She was being misgendered long before she started kicking over the store. Seems like you'll just defend her being insulted no matter what happens.


Being insulted by a nerdy kid is not justification for threats of violence and vandalism. Seems like you're in a rush to defend simply because it's a situation involving a transgender. If it was a regular white guy being insulted and went on to trash the store this wouldn't even be a topic.

And is there other proof of further misgendering outside of this video other than what the "victim" claims?

Btw, it's pretty easy to accidentally say "sir", even multiple times, in a heated exchange if you've been saying sir your whole life to people who are clearly men. Especially in customer service when it is a polite title to diffuse a situation in which someone with a deep guy voice is yelling at you.

I'd defend any person that walks into a store, gets insulted by the employees, and continuously asks them to stop despite the employee refusing to use basic manners. Her flipping out seems par for the course for being continuously insulted. If you don't want angry customers trashing your store then stop going out of your way to bash your customers and get them upset.

And why would I need proof of her being misgendered before the video starts rolling? If there's video of the altercation starting over something else, then we can talk about that thing once the video is posted.


The fact that you think that those clearly aggressive demands to not be called sir were questions shows how heavily entrenched in bias you are.

The worst are college-educated individuals who know how to google studies and read abstracts, but aren't versed enough in analyzing the literature to actually parse through what's supportive and what's probably not supportive.

I honestly had no clue how to analyze a study until I was forced to through postgraduate training, and I suspect that most people with just undergraduate degrees have no clue what they're doing.

The term christians is kind've used interchangeably. It can be synonymous with judeo-christians (meaning all jews, catholics, protestants and other Yahweh oriented denominations) and then it can be used as defining those that are the denominations aside from jews and catholics (the protestants and such).

so... it depends on who you ask i guess.


I thought Judeo-Christian referred to Abrahamic religions and Christian referred specifically to those who believe in and follow Christ

The neurology doctor ordered an MRI and a bunch of other tests to see what may have caused her to have seizures again.

The previous hospital seems to have thought that she had a stroke because she can't move her right arm but she can move her right leg. The new hospital did more in a few hours than the other did in 6 days.


I'm sorry to hear that, man. I hope a recovery is swift. Hopefully she didn't suffer from a stroke, but she may have if she lost control of an arm.

You can still be ethnically Jewish mixed with anything else, and the description even specifies that he may be only part Asian.


I mean I guess but that is not a very common mix as far as I know. I dont think theres anything wrong with casting any ethnic background for any part so long as the acting is good; but to me that casting call seems more to play to diversity than to the ethnic background of Spike Spiegel. And I must stress that this is not a bad thing.

What do people with neutral politics do?

nothing. neutral politics don't exist


That kind of implies an all or nothing mentality though, doesnt it? That seems a little scary to me...

no

humans have biases. society also has biases that get imprinted on everyone who lives in it.

if you think you are neutral, it means you're so deeply entrenched in your own ideology that you don't even recognize it as such.


Im not sanctimonious or naive enough to think that Im neutral or to not acknowledge implicit bias; but clearly there are varying degrees of reasoning and fervor when it comes to ideologies. Additionally, its neither hypocritical nor impossible to adopt viewpoints from varying ideologies.

Its just interesting that your viewpoint was intentionally constructed for division. It seems like youre saying that if youre not identifiably leftist then you are an enemy without exception.
