Overview:

The community dedicated to boycotting the US until they stop fascism, restore full democracy and start following international law.

Americans have a moral obligation to resist Donald Trump and project 2025 at every turn.

America is a flawed democracy currently being ruled by oligarchs. Stop the backslide! Dont let America become the next Hungary.

America needs to challenge the court rulings of citizens united v. fec and shelby county v. holder, protect the media, implement independent district drawing, and the single transferable vote so they don't end up having people stay home in life-changing elections because they cannot vote for their favourite candidate.

Apparently the USA now thinks referring to literal demons in a psychology essay is hunky dory.

"Students were asked to write a 650-word response to an academic study that examined whether conformity with gender norms was associated with popularity or bullying among middle school students."

"Fulnecky wrote that she was frustrated by the premise of the article because she doesn’t believe that there are more than two genders based on her understanding of the Bible, according to a copy of her essay"

That person clearly just didn't understand the task they were given. It doesn't matter whether you believe there are more than two genders. Clearly there are other people that do and thus do not adhere to the gender norms and that can have an effect on their popularity or whether or not they get bullied. So...that person was just unable to comprehend that there might be people out there that see the world with different eyes...heck, that person even got offended by that fact. That is so stupid!

In academia you are (and should be!) constantly confronted with different ideas and logic and arguments should become your tools to deal with them. That person could have even used a Christian point of view to try and explain the results of that study (whatever that was).
