Ah, why I would recommend moving off those platforms that silence pro-trans voices. It definitely does devolve to that when the only queer users left on your platform are the ones that are "safe" for cis people.

Basically the overton window is so far to the right on those platforms it makes sense that's where you would find the highest concentration of transphobic trans people. Then without voices of reason to do logic the arguments get really fucking stupid.

Every trans person I talk to is pro whatever type of gender affirming healthcare for every person who wants it trans or cis as far as I am aware lol.

    Huh? I tell people to right out come out of the closet and fight their right to medical care if they want it all the time because it's worth it and no one has ever called me truscum ever? Like people don't like hearing it but they don't call me truscum or transmed. That is a you problem

    Do you think trans medicalists are the only people who are pro free hrt for trans people? That's delusional and completely wrong.

    I'm not a transmedicalist and I also am a literal medical advocate fighting for my right to access free HRT and surgery? I can just straight up post my case if you want because I won't let this bad take stand. Dysphoria is still 100% a diagnosis that is separate from being trans and that is obviously not the reason trans healthcare has been put at risk on a global and local scale.

    At least with EDM which is my favorite music to make it is all pretty downstream from each other if you know what I mean.

    Software developments lead to new soft synth developments. I quit using FL studio because now you can just have it write melodies, parts, mix and master, I don't use any of that stuff but FL is in my meta tags now and it becomes impossible to prove. I was trying to record all of my sessions to validate my work but I'm too broke and homeless for that. It's all just not worth it anymore.

    I could just make songs for myself and that is fun but I can do that on any DAW so why not one where I can share my work with confidence it's made from reading, conversations and practice? Right now I use KORG on the switch and while it's a bit slower I can make awesome songs on it. And the people I usually share my work with are happy to hear I'm not using AI supporting companies.

    This thread is depressing. I am always sad to find out how widespread AI usage is still even. You can live your life with so little AI usage and should. Programmers have put so many industries in these tiny, fragile little bubbles.

    I'm a musician and it ruined music for me because a lot of musicians are also "just using a little to alleviate the crunch" or whatever. It's all manufactured consent to fund companies that were all jockeying for Trump money the last two years.

    But now it supports the Trump military AND it's ruined the market for digital artists.

    Sounds super exploitable, like you could just agree to the terms and not follow them and use AI instead of SI. And then it's just framing. They didn't risk their research by being accurate, America threatened their research to embolden a cult of personality.
