Imagine if Democrats were campaigning on "No immigrants in sports" or "No healthcare for Black children" or "I don't support biological Jews". You know it would be outright evil. Why does your calculus change when those same arguments are made about trans people?

Remember, everyone, this isn't happening. No matter how much it increases every day. Democrats are not campaigning against trans people. It's not happening.
New Annie Andrews ad, campaigning against trans rights. She says "I don't support biological men playing in women's sports." Graphic next to her says "No gender surgeries for minors."

Donald Trump posted on Truth Social calling Dr Annie Andrews a transphobic slur this week, and her response is to ensure everyone knows she hates trans people too. Christ, the Democrats are fucking pathetic.

ICE builds more prisons because the goal is explicitly to warehouse surplus labor, criminalize poverty, and assert total control over all of society. When Stephen Miller claims there are 25, 30, or even 50 million "illegal immigrants" in the US, he's betting on how many of us he'll need to imprison

@avilewis.ca is 100% correct, unfortunately Alberta is a captured petro state. People, of course, can vote for whatever they feel is important, but I have no desire for forever wars with Canadians that see climate change for the threat it is no matter how Nenshi & Smith feel about it.

Are you actively trying to make provincial NDP voters stay home during next year's election? Because I'm with Avi Lewis on this - not you. #abpoli #cdnpoli www.aptnnews.ca/featured/car...
NDP Leader Avi Lewis said the designation is not in the national interest.

"Throwing billions in public money behind a pipeline at a time of climate breakdown while sweeping aside environmental protections, meaningful Indigenous consultation and workers' right to strike - is absolutely not in the national interest," Lewis said.

He said the industry is unwilling to finance the project, that Indigenous nations have expressed opposition, and that the risks include endangered southern resident orcas.

"This is a pipeline to the courts, and it's not worth the risk," he said.

Anyway, take from this reaction what you will!!!!! This is a Conservative prime minister. Please, please consider whether you **actually** support his **policies** or just wish the narrative he's weaving around them was reality (it's not).
Former Alberta Premier (and former conservative cabinet minsiter) Jason Kenney posts, in reaction to Carney saying Canada must be the globe's oil supplier:

"Take a bow, Alberta  WE WON!!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Every line of this is what we Albertans have been saying for years!

Total repudiation of the Trudeau-Guilbault energy policy!

“Global oil demand will remain in the tens of millions of barrels a day for decades to come.

“So the question is: who will be the world’s trusted supplier of oil for years to come. It should be us. It must be Canada.”

And also of language being effectively workshopped in legislatures by national anti queer groups. If something gains traction in one state, we see legislation in other states written by the same bigots. Or other countries - one of the bills here was obviously written by Americans.

The trend in the trans legislative tracker is pretty clear, an increase in legislation, but also passage. Never mind regulation and executive orders - which even if unlawful and eventually overturned - have deeply affected trans people in "random red states" Or hell, prisoners in "good" states.

You know, researchers since the 1980s have found that men can tell when they don’t have consent. They just choose to continue anyway because they prioritize consent as less important than power, domination, and sexual gratification.

They restricted these surveys in multiple states in the last few years. States moved to require opt in with parental consent to administer the surveys. Then the CDC stopped reporting data about gender identity in 2025. Given the broader anti LGBTQ hostility it's not a surprise numbers declined.

To their defense most cis people never interacted with transsex ones. It's thus unsurprising if they identify 'trans' with the non-transitioning cissexed folx. For this group, being trans is mostly a socio-political stance mainly divorced from material reality & analysis. In other words: a costume 😕
