Almost had a job - was all but hired, but whoops! I’m a gay trans man, should have considered that before I had hopes of being able to pay back my college loans.

What would be a realistic plan for driving straight down south to Mexico City and just knocking at every school door saying “¿necesitas maestro?” Or really, I’ll stop at the first city with access to testosterone and maybe a nice gay night scene.

I assume security going into Mexico is a lot easier to clear than the other way around? Visas probably cost money I don’t have LOL

    It’s a sloppy rework of a Hegel quote–you have my most favorite lemmy comment prole
    I really love the beauty of a prole calling a hegel quote the dumbest thing ever in any context.

    But if you wanted a serious answer, yes–doesn’t any modern worthwhile philosopher have to engage with Hegel’s thought in some dimension?

      I’m aware you didn’t come up with it, but I could not care less that Hegel said it. It’s fucking stupid.

      I guess that means I disregard everything Hegel ever said?

        I think it means lumpenprole would be a better name lol

        You have impressed me yet again tho–if you ever seriously engage with Marx’s inspirations, please return with how your views changed on this very core Hegel quote. Until then, I hope you find peace:D

          Because I said that the idea that “evil only exists in the eyes of those who see evil everywhere” is stupid?

          Maybe you should learn to think for yourself.

          Were the Jews in the Holocaust people who saw evil everywhere?

          Were slaves from Africa people who saw evil everywhere?

          It’s fucking victim blaming. Plain and simple.
