This is complicated by the fact that the English speaking world isn't safe, or won't be for long. The UK is having its own wave of transphobic reaction which has spread to Ireland, Canada is being threatened with a trade war and being the 51st state, Australia got couped that one time by the CIA, and New Zealand is a hard place to get into since it's basically the bunker nation for billionaires since COVID.
I might apply for asylum outside the English speaking world but that's extremely challenging in lots of other ways. I'm cramming language lessons atm to give myself a chance if I am forced to flee, but it's dire.
And they use the threat of trans people getting government healthcare as a way to stop socialized medicine. They also use racism this way, and sexism, and homophobia, and xenophobia, and other reactionary ideologies. These things are directly connected, we can't really ignore one to focus on the other.
Besides, we need to form a mass movement, and you can't form a mass movement by telling minorities to shut up and wait their turn.
Also I might lose my healthcare in the next few months. It's kind of fucking urgent?
Pedophiles are obviously the excuse to gather public support? It's fascinating that you actually believe them when they say they want to protect children.
The US obviously interfers in and influences Canada's elections, on a greater scale and to greater effect, but the Canadian government doesn't seem to care about that. This is despite the fact that the US is vastly more dangerous to Candian sovereignity, with it waging a trade war on their economy and now threatening to make Canada the 51st state.
It shows that election interference and influence is only a problem in the eyes of the Canadian government when Asians do it. When the US does it they're just being friendly, I guess.
Do you think this attack will help end the genocide? Or help the flotilla? Or help Palestine Action? It won't, adventurism doesn't work.
Synagogue attacks directly benefit Israel. It makes Jews afraid to live outside of Israel and encourages them to become settlers, it's used by Zionist-aligned governments to crack down on all opposition to Israel, and it creates martyrs when people get killed.
Okay, but we aren't going to fix the social safety net. Nothing ever gets fixed. So, since that's never going to happen, this basically just means cyclists don't have the same property rights as motorists.
We already have fewer rights than anyone else on the road, now we have fewer rights off the road too.
If they decriminalized car theft then at least it would be fair. This is just a way to ensure cyclists stay second class commuters. We aren't even people to them, just annoying obstacles for motorists.
Elon Musk might be similar in that he also cultivates his own popularity, but most CEOs are either unknown or generally hated by everyone on all sides. No one knew who Brian Thompson was before he was killed and most people either didn't care or were happy he died, and there were Republicans that were happy he died.
