There's a reason they stick to the reductive "it's just basic biology" argument. Because the actual nitty gritty of trans exclusionary ontology goes to some wild places...
had multiple terfs tell me that hrt doesnt change my biology it changes my appearence. they've twisted the word "biology" so much that they use it to refer to that which cannot be observed

this is different from saying conservatives can’t make good art. That’s reductive. I’m saying they’ve never had to proven they’re capable of making anything good creatively

It’s very much of a piece of some centre left referring to the Genocide as just ‘some conflict going on 1000s of miles away’ when people in the West want to show support for the Palestinians.
It’s reductive and insulting

This has been going on for ages. ‘Butch’ and ‘hefty’ women are facing all kinds of 💩. Trans women are very much in the minority.
Just as fkg awful obviously, but it’s basically resetting what a ‘woman’ looks like.
Reductive in the extreme. Feminists my arse.
TERF= TERrible Fkg human.

None. This thought is reductive and harmful to the art

All of this is 100% true, but I also think we can be even more brutally reductive and say that any dominant media narrative about why a GOP endeavor failed will a) be intentionally wrong, and b) calculated to help it work next time.
Yes, people do care a lot about inflation and gas prices, but arguing that voters cared more about the Iran War in and of itself (separate from gas prices) than they did about ICE terrorizing their communities and families?
Color me highly suspicious.

4. this schema is a reductive hyper simplification of bodies and genitals
correct! in fact it is likely both transphobic (insofar as it disconnects sexing the body from how a person names their genitals) and intersexist (the continuities of bodies exist beyond the discrete). this is because

its so strange to me that this was understood as a corrective to the overly deterministic or reductive marxists and critical theorists

As transsexual woman… I simply don’t see the point in this?
Surely we’ve learned by now from the TERF wars that reductive categories enforced in people is not a productive framework?

To put it unkindly, the desire to erase any material difference between cissexual and transsexual trans people seems to be rooted in a "validity" urge to justify oneself at the expense of transsexuals
Its okay to have privilege. Its not okay to use that privilege to commit epistemological vandalism

They saw “Blue wave” and said let’s make some radically reductive reforms 🤦🏾♂️
It’s time for ICE to take the masks off, turn the body cameras on, and start answering to the American people who pay for their bloated budget.

If my years in NC have shown me anything, it's that writing off Southern states as "lost causes" is reductive and racist. Republicans have spent generations of money, corruption, and BLOOD silencing (largely marginalized) dissent here. The South is under occupation, but it is breaking the chains.

I don't like this theory very much. There's often some truth to it, yes, but it can be reductive, and it's not nearly as universal as armchair kink psychologists like to pretend.

Look, I know “Kingdom Hearts but it’s just Agrabah” sounds reductive, but I TOTALLY FUCK WITH THIS. YES PLEASE, BRING ON THE HEARTSLIKES
I’m making Luminous Nights, a Kingdom Hearts-inspired action RPG set in a world drawn from 1001 Arabian Nights

it's highly reductive to sum up edelgard dimitri and claude's politics as "central church is cucked" "total warlord death" and "i love neoliberalism" but it's funny so that's what i'm going with

"Britain's doing X because they cannot accept that they've become a third rate power," might be a more accurate (but still reductive) statement.
Spain and Portugal already went through their period of post-colonial insanity, France has its Neo-colonial fits, and Russia is Russia.

maybe an equally broad and reductive take as the one i'm refuting but even if i'm lukewarm to negative on a lot of video game remakes they're still of significantly more artistic worth than the average video game film/tv adaptation

Look, I'm more Christian than you might imagine, but this thing every Christian creative does where they're like "how is this peice of art about my faith" is reductive. Art is not solely for expressing your faith. There's other purposes for art beyond that you weirdos.

It's par for the course, you have people on one side cooking multi-course feasts full of nuance and then you have people who are content with a dull, reductive dinky little sandbox because people see it as Downton Abbey for some reason.
