Melange just straight doesn't mean variety though

Liberals, such as they are, did have your back. A whole lot of folks who allied with the democrats only because they feared conservative racism against them have just found out that sexism and transphobia are things that they have in common with those conservatives and are now mending fences with them.

I'm not very popular on this platform cause I tend to push back on some progressive ideas, but holy fuck not even I would suggest this dipshit shouldn't be doxxed.

The descendents of the grand historian still making themselves as popular with authority as always

They are sentient beings and they know they are slaves.

I recently tried to explain to Lemmy that non-white working class voters see their social program as weird and off putting. I was downvoted to oblivion just for honestly relating an opinion from people these chronically online "allies" would never hear from, because they simply don't associate with seamstresses/fruit packers/construction site crossing guards etc. Not to mention the majority of these folks can't speak any language but English.

Tell my Chilean wife how she is going to make more money tomorrow than she did today and she will listen. Tell her she is a bigot because she believes that it takes more than "feeling like" a women to actually "be" a woman and she will stop listening. That is what just happened here.

I am from a different cultural context than her and I tend to believe what the people who study these issues have to say ie: gender affirming care saves lives. But to say that this one issue determines a persons entry or exclusion from our ever shrinking tent is political suicide, no matter how much we might wish that wasn't the case.

I live near a primary school and there are multiple "YES ALL MEN" slogans written on the walls right next door. I wonder what those boys will think about their place in the world when this is what the walls are yelling at them.

Glorious, I love to see it. At least the PQ pretend to be progressives when they aren't selling out the north to foreign mining companies, restricting minority rights and generally sucking shit.

I doubt we could do much worse if we just elected 11 different provincial/territorial lobby groups that have to caucus together to pass laws.

I mean, Quebec doesn't evenn really want to leave. Legault has found a winning strategy that will keep his party in power for decades: Never hold a referendum, but leverage that notwithstanding clause and general nationalist animus to take and horde as much power in this province as possible forever. That way everything that goes wrong is because of the feds, and everything that goes right is because of the glorious CAQ.

The only thing you can be absolutely sure of as a liberal white male is that no one likes you or wants to hear from you.

It's fucking ridiculous that the only party with significant seats that doesn't want to expand the tarsands also want to break up the country. Maybe Canada is too stupid to exist.
