    Not every Pokémon will be available in Pokémon Sword and Shield

    I'll honestly admit I sometimes was a game freak apologist, but not anymore. This is it. This is the first main series pokemon game I'm getting used since Platinum.

    There are only two genders. Change my mind.

    How did I convince anyone to believe anything? I did never make the statement that there were no benefits, I asked a person with a different atitude towards the subject about their opinion. I do not have an agenda in wich I would need to defend an identity movement, so why should I do another...

    Because you implied it to be the "right" thing to do to just look it up for myself when my point is that I would rather like to learn how people with a different mindset than me see it.

    Yes, I could have done that, but I fail to see how it is problematic that I did not. I do not have an agenda that would require me to defend this movement, so how is me trying to discuss with people I know to have a different mindset than me the wrong thing to do?

    Your emotional reaction tells me this means a lot to you and I'd be interested in reading more about your view on the subject. However, I fail to see how me not knowing certain things makes me ignorant towards them if I haven't even been confronted with them up until this point in the debate...

    Not about black people but about promoting identities, as in promoting identities of black people. The gender debate is strongly related to identity politics, so are concepts such as "black power". I don't see the issue in exploring this debate further. auto Well, tell me about the benefits...

    It doesn't matter what the intention of a concept is, as long as it causes factual harm you can criticize it with very good reason.

    Seems you have simply not experienced racism of black people towards white people yet. It does exist and I will link video material when I get home. And no, it's not "more harmless" than any other form of radical identity ideology.

    The whole concept of being proud of a thing you have no influence on is just absurd to me. I was mainly talking about you thinking "black power" being acceptable when it leads to more racism.

    Now how does a historical background justify fighting fire with fire? How does it justify provoking the same contemptuous tendencies that lead to this, only from and towards a different group of people? Wouldn't you say this promotes racism of black people towards white people? Again, I agree...

    The way I see it is, yes, it is plausible that those parades exist given what happened in the past, however, that doesn't take away their harmfull aspects. After all, too much pride and separating one group of people from another is what caused this whole problem in the first place. There are...

    Also a bisexual and I completely agree. Although, as you mentioned, my sexuality really shouldn't matter for my arguments.

    There are only two genders. Change my mind.

    I agree. So are you against the idea of many social genders? More labels, they tend to make things more complicated. Right? auto How is observing a factual state bigotry? I'm not saying you should hate those individuals for it, but the statement that you can not change DNA in a way a person...

    There are only two genders. Change my mind.

    So you're saying a people who state that they identify as a certain gender are not labeling themselves and aren't putting themeslves in danger of creating a dogma as a part of their identity? You can experiment with your sexuality without having a name for it. Great, another straw man, just...
