Now give me the positive statistics. Cars save lives as well. Think of all the emergency vehicles that help people every day. I’m pretty sure guns are way less helpful.

Haha, yeah, but you get the point.

Passports are for traveling - that’s the hole point. They are a means of communication with the other countries and should help the holder to travel easily. If they don’t because of their design, it’s not the fault of the other countries. Passports are emmitted by our country to help us travel even ti stupid countries if needed.

Important for dating - yes, evolution - yes, government, administration and passports - no.

Cars are made for transport, guns are made for killing. They are not the same.

“passports to trans people that allows them safe passage” - that’s what you wouldn’t give them. What is a passport good for if you cannot travel with it because the information it carries makes you a target in many countries?

How is it critical outside of reproduction? Why should anyone except for your doctor and partner care?

TV, newpapers and facebook is what I’m talking about. I’m the only lemmy person in my real life bubble.

And it’s not US politics, it’s international politics - tariffs, visas, research financing, USAID, military alliances, new territory ambitions - these are not US internal politics, it influences other countries in a massive way.

Unfortunately that’s not the way it works.

I believe it does. It’s really hard for children to buy hard drugs.

Banning hard drugs doesn’t solve the underlying problem, but it makes them less widely available, which is a good thing. Ban him.

No, they were not. AI was probably used for translation.
