RE: Right-Wing Websites Are Distorting Scientific Data to Attack Trans People ⚧
I just find it quite alarming that your whole video was about how these individuals did not do research and were misrepresenting facts, when you yourself are doing the same thing you are accusing them of.
I'm not @arminnavabi.. I'm a volunteer that manages his Steem account and he'd tell me the exact things you are telling me but I am mainly here to interact with his Steem followers and I am still learning the ropes as I go as I am a new volunteer of @atheistrepublic.
I agreed to anonymously volunteer for @atheistrepublic to bring them to the Steem blockchain and because I support @arminnavabi's stances on Freedom of Speech, the separation of Church & State and the idea of using the Prevention & Reduction of harm as a basis for morality.
There are a lot of things I agree with @arminnavabi on and some things I don't, but I DO agree with his practice of critical thinking and you are also calling me out on NOT thinking critically.
I didn't think critically in my replies and still have to learn and practice. The differences between what was said in the video and what I typed is due to me being a different person than any of the people in the video.
- @atheistrepublic is the largest atheist community in the world with volunteers and paid staff, so when you are talking to @atheistrepublic you are not necessarily talking to the speakers in the video but are likely talking to an employee or staff-member.
I joined @atheistrepublic specifically to help them join Steem and I actually grew to appreciate their work the more I got involved. Your feedback and constructive criticism will help me manage the comment section better @justineh.
If you notice, I upvote the most thoughtful comments and give the greatest voting strength to the best ones, whether or not it is for or against @atheistrepublic. That's my strategy, I think it's best for @atheistrepublic and I also think it will help me think critically better, and faster 😊
And I appreciate you taking the time to further a good discussion here and completely understand you cannot speak on behalf of those in the video etc.
Thanks for taking the time to have the discussion with me. All the best.
Thank you @justineh 😊
I reviewed our discussion with @arminnavabi earlier this week and I was informed that he doesn't pick the titles of these videos, nor does his team.
The team is only providing commentary in their videos of viral religious news and the Title + Description is the title and position of the news article they provide commentary on.
If you check the text of this post, a link to the sourced article is included and the article does not necessarily represent the views of any of the team, @arminnavabi or @atheistrepublic.
The things that each person said in the video represents their views and sometimes their discussions are not enough to cover the article in a comprehensive way 👍
