Indeed. I always read these charts like the more you go right/down you include the squares in your left and up side.

No, saying that community activism is a science but physics is not is just absurd. You definitely progress until you draw the line.

Maybe we can get some data by infighting in a pseudonymous forum.

Excellent idea, lol

Excuse me, are you whining about Marxism not making the first square together with physics? That would be a rather peculiar statement, but you present it as if it were self evident. Just in case you are shallowly serious I may respond that physics does not acknowledge social reality and admittedly it can hardly account for organic life. Marxism, in the common understanding is a scientific theory of social reality. The fact that it is an economic reductionist theory of social reality does not mean it is physics.

As the author of the meme I disagree that such impression is given as to "toddlers destroying their toys" or "French surrealism" and Marxism being equivalent. May I draw your attention to these neatly distinguishable squares that break the chart up to ample separable plots? They are there to separate things rather than showing their equivalence.

Intent is important I guess

Absolutely cool. I will have to revise all my internalized cyberpunk imagery though.

In fact, the American Psychological Association warns that manhood and masculinity are so construed by society's expectations, that being a man poses mental health risks itself.

There is a whole subdiscipline that focuses on 'counseling men".

Not to mention no one of this lot wants to have this discussion, either online or IRL.

Imagine we joked about cisgender men suicide rates the same way we joke about transgender suicide rates.

Plus this statistic is flawed. It comes from an older study that does not even compare pre- to post- transition.

I see. Looks like it could keep things tidy. I will try to stick to this solution then.
