Yeah I'd support a name change to something better, but I'm not much interested in a discussion of what 'better' is.

Is your position that we shouldn't change because.... everything is changing all the time?

I believe that if the people that maliciously adopt fake pronouns had to deal with people actually using the fake pronouns they would clarify and retract their transphobic fake pronouns.

As a person that actually torrented a Linux iso on Friday, thank you! Lol

"Ultimately, you're just getting the same care for a higher cost with less oversight because it's happening in a private facility."

Yes, but only the rich get it. Which means that the rich actually DO get it. Which is why political donors like the policy.

Instead of a properly funded system where everyone gets the healthcare they need, or an underfunded system where the care available is distributed according to patients' need (at least nominally).

They want a public system that's just barely adequate to hold revolution at bay, AND a separate system where care can be distributed according to patients' cash.

Honestly I'd be happy to examine my behavior, because my support for the trans community is real. I don't think I'm on trial but if you want me to provide evidence I can.

I don't agree with the strategy of the previous poster which was to intentionally mislabel Elon. But I think it is appropriate to ironically adopt someone's insincerely adopted pronouns. That said, I'd be happy to read an explanation of why this is a bad strategy.

Cheers.

This sort of comment from a premier under mines the little leverage Canada has in the situation.

I just want to point out that saying things to people with the intent of making them fear for their life, is probably a crime.

If OP is worried for real, maybe a restraining order is possible.

Not because a religious judgement really means anything violent (or even specific) but because there is someone trying to intimidate OP.

I agree that we should use people's preferred pronouns. I know it's difficult to use neopronouns but it's so seldom an issue let's just get on with life.

Elon has protested being identified as a cisgender male, and declared that 'prosecute/Fauci' should be used.

Prosecute has also mentioned that prosecute doesn't really like people making a big deal about pronouns so let's just move on.

What? They should have been banned in new builds in 2008.

They are allied with him because he weakens America. If America invaded Canada, China and Russia would probably support both sides to make America look bad.
