So like. To be clear. It's not the ongoing genocide conducted by Israel you're worried about, but the single bombardment they've received? Like, I don't like people dying to begin with, but. Come on.

That would be because a large amount of artifacts were stolen. The comment is referring to all of the artifacts within that large category of theirs. Do you think that all those countries that Britain pillaged and colonized just gave them those artifacts as a token of friendship?

Then why did you call that take braindead? They didn't say that all of Britain's exhibits are for stolen artifacts, just how their biggest exhibits are the stolen ones.

they're not stolen because internet meme, they're stolen because many of those artifacts are literally taken by colonists who have taken the land.

believing yourself immune to suggestion is one of the greatest vulnerabilities against suggestion tbh

my last ex did this kind of thing with me when i wanted to assert my boundaries by explaining i did not want to be involved in constant death spirals, and then telling me that me leaving them was killing them and also i was crossing their boundaries by asserting my boundaries (???)

In reference to what you said about wait times, generally wanting to dress a certain way or play pretend as a certain character isn't all that goes into feeling trans. Usually, it is on some level knowing that you would be happier as a certain gender or with that gender's features. It's like other forms of body modification, like ear piercings. People don't get their ears pierced because they want to wear dresses, they get their ears pierced because they want ear piercings - though the two are often seen together. Similarly, someone won't just get go on testosterone or estradiol because they want to wear suits or dresses - they will go on the hormone of their choice because they feel like they would be happier with that hormone.
