I agree, personally.

In general I feel the words are so abstract (blacklist and whitelist) that I can't really see how someone will see some other meaning...

Nftables is the modern iptables FYI. Linux firewall.

Totally discussing useless stuff here, but green and red to me give the feeling of temporary actions (and possibly alternating). Intuitively sounds more like slowing and speeding than it does permanently blocking or allowing something.

Black and white have the polar opposite meaning. At this point allowlist and blocklist might be a simpler solution to the "problem".

Right, violence works usually works to eradicate ideas and standardize morality!

This is not even a slope, it is the application of the same principle applied by people who have different views and morality.

Just a thought: what happens when that "we" is people who - say - think the courts and the police are not doing their job in sending home all "these illegal immigrants" or something like that?

And Musk, and the Hungarian boxer, and many more around the World. This has been a worldwide case, not just a private US shitshow.

Tbh considering how it is a method, not a subject really, I think it is indirectly taught in so many subjects: math, literature, philosophy, biology, physics and more.

I really don't see the point of teaching it as a standalone subject, although I would be curious to see how that works.

I had to search, and I did find a few articles talking about a rumor.

I don't think the two events are of same scope and magnitude. The Khelif's case has been a worldwide media case, what I found for was very US-specific and limited to some niche deranged corner of the internet (https://www.snopes.com/news/2023/07/27/katie-ledecky-trans-rumors/ listed Facebook and Twitter posts from individuals and 2 articles).

Possibly I shouldn't have used US athletes as example. Given how the topic is so controversial there, I am quite sure you can find a few idiots who would make this claim about any athlete.

Sure! FYI, simplelogin can create aliases with prefix! I usually get service-{random 5 chars}@simplelogin.com, so you can still sort by folder using prefixes.

That seems both unlikely and - to be honest - completely exaggerated and useless.

None of those, really. Just that downplaying successful women doesn't happen as much in sport, and when it does it's not by stating they are men.

If %10 of successful women have ever been downplayed because of their gender (due to unconscious biases for example) vs %1 of successful men, then this is still a handful of examples which nevertheless points to a significant bias.

  1. Ok, but where is the data?
  2. Sure, it point to the fact that women's success are downplayed. Not that when women are successful they are called men.
