It's one thing if mankind is hunted to extinction by ChatGPT, but I really do object to being executed by Bing.

Birdy Rose interviews Nina Paley, "Artists in Cancel Culture"

https://youtu.be/sEXtg4O2Wmc

(Haha, bet they're pleased that url starts with "sext".)

It looks like it's 2h, but it's two videos attached together, and the 2nd is more about views on "trutrans", so it's a bit shorter than it looks if you're just interested in the bit that matches the title. And it's a video amenable to being watched on double speed.

(That said, for me, standout moment was birdy noting that ppl suddenly messing with hormones as adults get the mental health fluctuations that come with that, without the lifetime's experience of managing mood symptoms of a hormonal condition. I'd add to that, also missing family wisdom; sometimes fluctuations must be genetic and family would pass down coping mechanisms.)

LOLd at discussion of oppression cards. I'm a lot like Nina in not wanting to play that game, so I keep mine close to my vest (and I totally judge people who play them if they don't need to xD). But then that's annoying if I want to talk about something I've experienced, or share personal stories when making friends, but still keep things ambiguous for a wider audience. So currently I do the opposite of the fashion, and try to maintain a public persona that leaves open the possibility that I have every privilege imaginable, but give myself more freedom in private.
