This is actually one of his dogwhistle tactics. He makes some comics that are more vague on his political beliefs and some that are explicit, so that he still gets algorithm boosts

Also practices like that reinforce the gendered division of labour. As men get jobs, women are usually left to pick up the slack of care responsibilities. This leaves them financially dependent on those men. So both men and women suffer, but the system leaves women with less agency than men.

(Also nonbinary, queer, and third gender people are treated even worse)

Using Tubular, which is a fork of newpipe with sponsorblock integration. It's a bit buggy but I like not having to skip every sponsor

You do this already. If you are part of a church or friend group or organisation or whatever, you usually sort out issues when they come up by talking to one another. Saying people are going to vote is a weird framing of normal collaboration, because most of the time we agree on decisions by talking and compromising

The strongest argument I can come up with for why this should go is that it violates Spotify's explicit policy on hate speech, inciting hatred against trans people. They remove other stuff that violates, and they were aware this did, as they removed them album artwork, so them deliberately not removing the song isn't a lack of action, but an action of discrimination in and of itself

If others want to argue that shouldn't be Spotify's policy, we can have that discussion, but if we only have that discussion when trans people are brought up then the discussion was never about free speech and thus arguing platforms, censorship, and tolerance paradoxes is moot. It's just tone policing

Adding to this, consent also depends on what you are consenting to and the risks that it entails. It's one thing for a teenager to decide to do a low risk activity, but sex carries many risks such as pregnancy, STDs, and emotional distress from a poorly defined boundary being crossed. An adult can make an educated decision that understands these risks but a teenager is not equipped to do so

Except carcinnisation only happens in some crustaceans, so it's less a universal thing and more a selective pressure

I agree with the idea that rights are weird. The history of rights is rooted in law. A right is enforced by a state or similar entity. Freedom can exist outside of institutional power but rights historically require it.

That said, most people who advocate for rights are not much concerned about who will enforce those rights. It's often used more as a synonym for freedom. As with all social constructs, there is no material reality behind it

To use a trolley problem metaphor, what they are saying is not pulling the lever is the same as allowing five people to die. If fascism is progressing and you do not stop it, you are allowing it to progress. Whether you consider that propagation comes down to your ethical framework, but from a consequentialist view it is accurate

"Orcas were given the name ‘killer whale’ by ancient sailors’ observations of groups of orcas hunting and preying on larger whale species. They called orcas ballena asesina, or ‘killer whale.’ Their Latin name, Orcinus orca, also reflects this observation of orcas feeding on large whales. Orcinus translates to ‘of the kingdom of the dead,’ and orca refers to a kind of whale."

So seems like this etymology makes more sense.
