DEBATE ITSINDAHG X ANIL: Left-Leaning Libertarian vs. Leftist Trans Debate

Many of you have requested for this episode, and now here it is. Before you press that play button however, on the off-chance you are reading this, we want to put out a clear disclaimer that all of us on TIGS, from Indah herself to the rest of the team, unequivocally stand with our queer brothers & sisters here in Indonesia as well as the rest of the world, in support and allyship to the broad LGBTQIA+ community. We at TIGS believe that two things can be true at once, that you can support a movement whilst still 1) having questions about certain elements of the movement, and 2) disagreeing with certain talking points that are commonly espoused by members of that movement, and that is what this discussion with Anil is intended to showcase. We want to show that we can have a proper, well-balanced, objective discussion about people's lives, and go about changing people's hearts and minds in a level-headed and compassionate manner, instead of the usual hot-headed polarized debate that's meant to farm cheap views & engagement. We hope you enjoy.
