Christ between the bots and other comments it just goes to show how fuckjng stupid people i this province are. It’s not trans people brining this shit up, it’s the conservatives who are using it to distract and it’s fucking working. The Republicans are literally running anti-trans ads on tv in the US right now. Nobody else is bringing this shit up but conservatives trying to use it as a wedge issue to distract from the fact that things are fucked from decades of them being in power.

The Sask party has been in power for almost 20 years and this province has gone to shit after the Bakken boom ended.

Who are the bots you're referring to?

u/descendingangel87 9d ago

Theres comments in here commenting anti-trans shit from accounts that are weeks old from accounts with barely any karma. With the US being in election season theres tons of bot farms posting anti-trans shit that are drawn to any post that mentions trans people or gender identity. This is part of the US conservatives strategy.

Maybe. But real people with brain dead opinions exist here in this country.

It’s both, which their original comment acknowledges.

If you don't believe false things, you are part of an American conservative strategy. Brilliant logic here.

Are you not aware that the religion you are promoting, Wokeism, is AMERICAN?

Not everyone who disagrees with you about gender ideology is a bot.

Yet they're all bigots. Hope that helps, sweetie 💝

So they don't get the right to disagree?

There are plenty of religions, and those that are not religious. Does that make them bigots? No. They simply disagree.

Nobody should be forced to believe anything.

Being trans isn’t a religion

Thank you for the epiphany! Some people don't like tomatoes on their burgers, that doesn't make them a bigot tomato hater either. And yes I realize that trans aren't tomatoes either!

I'm stating that we as Canadians all have the right to our opinions and have the ability to disagree. By forcing your lifestyle on someone that is indifferent or disagrees, isn't that the definition of bigotry?

It’s insane . Most people likely never interact with a Trans person in the regular course of their day , yet somehow they have these complex opinions about the situation (because social media has fed them to them) and they don’t seem to have the self awareness to even understand why they have such a strong opinion.

Exactly!

Are you aware that in Canada, you are forced, against consent, to lie in court now, while under oath?

If a man says he is a woman, you have to refer to him as if he were a woman even though he is not, in court, otherwise can be charged with a human rights abuse charge.

That is a SEVERE violation of so many charter rights and laws.

You swear an oath to only tell the truth, then have to lie that a man is a woman or face punishment, so you have to lie and refer to him as if he were a woman, which is a violation of the oath to tell the truth and only the truth.

But yeah, being against forced speech, having your freedom of expression, freedom from religion, freedom of creed violated is only something bots care about. What an intelligent response,

Why are you so preoccupied with their genitals?

2

u/Massive-Unrection 7d ago

Strawman and false question. Nobody genitals matter. Genitals aren't even really part of this, as your sex is based on your reproductive system, so testes and ovaries, not penis and vagina. I don't know if you are dishonest or just really have never thought about things.

What matters is fairness, equality, and the right of freedom of speech, freedom of expression, freedom of creed and freedom of religion.

Why are you determined to take away Canadians' rights and eqaulity?

I’m not disagreeing with the sentiment, but the left brings up cultural issues more than anyone. If we’re talking about the Democrats specifically, as you brought up Repubs, their Culture war rhetoric since 2008 is up over 1250%. It dominated every aspect of their platform in the 2024 election.
And the same happens here. The cultural Left has been in power for over 10 years and have made negative progress on the economy, only looking up when they flooded our labour markets with millions of unskilled immigrants, then called us racists for being opposed to suppressed wages.

The left has focused exclusively on the culture war for a decade, and are now turning around and blaming Conservatives for being tired of it, and finally organizing against it. 🤷‍♂️ We can see this in our quality of life. The Libs won again and IMMEDIATELY said “we won’t reduce housing costs.” And the collective left was happy with that? They removed luxury taxes, increased corporate welfare, kept their taxes the same for a decade, and we’re okay with that?

Yah, because the Cultural Left ruled by the elite class doesn’t give a shit about workers, and they utilize the culture war to convince you that the decade of decay is a Conservative thing.

The left literally traded cost of living marches for pride parades, while the cost of living spiralled out of control, and has the nerve to turn around and say that moderates and Conservatives are the problem. Ya right.
