The rhetoric I described is absolutely being weaponized against people. If you follow the reason behind the arugment that someone is "normal, not cis", then you would then conclude that trans and nb people are not normal. Anyone who accepts that argument would likely conclude that not only are trans women not "normal women", and trans men not "normal men", but that they are not actually real women or men.

As for gen z being infatuated with labels, I will admit I don't understand many of them, but I'm fine with them if they help people communicate their identity better. I wouldn't claim that any labels are redundant or just attention seeking without any actual evidence or reasoning behind it.

Yes, sometimes labels are too constrictive, and not perfect for everyone. But when people say queer people are obsessed with labels, or "I'm not cis; I'm normal", what they're almost certainly taking issue with is non-cisheteronormativity being recognized and validated. When the only labels are normal and not normal, it's much easier to silence and marginalize those you believe are outside the norm.

MUFJ also has decent online banking and is one of the few banks that offer debit cards.

Also greater visibility of communities on other instances, as they won't be recognized until someone manually searches for them by their address. Right now you have to rely on the Lemmy Community browser or !newcommunities @lemmy.world.

Why can't Kellogg's go back to their wholesome familly values of being far too concerned about preventing young boys from masturbating? /s
