 @aff773f4 You know how they say the eyes are the window to the soul? Yeah, that guy needs curtains.

I forget the specific acad... 
 @c0d42c1a @b541bfe5 I helped with some HFE research. The machine vision they tried to employ literally couldn't detect African-American faces. It would bounce back "sorry no face detected" 🤦

I guess we've learned nothing from things like Clearview AI.

 @b541bfe5 this should scare everyone. These people are appointing themselves judge, jury, & executioner and arbiters of what a "man" or "woman" looks like. There are plenty of cishet people that could be beaten up just the same for not looking "male enough" or "female enough"...making the simple act of relieving oneself absurdly dangerous for everyone.

I say this because abuse of *anyone* is a threat to *everyone*...if they can't be bothered to care about trans people as people deserving consideration/respect, then maybe at least they could recognize the threat this poses to their post-menopausal grandmas  or aunties who may not look as girly as they used to.

Yeesh. 😒 It's just an excuse to be cruel. All of it.
