Here we are again - waxing

It was buried in a twitter thread but the video is here along with some racists social media posts and private messages

@BoxedWine hadn't thought of that, they'll have a great time if that is the case. I wonder how many inmates they will offer to help insert their tampons

It'll no doubt be a women's prison, so probably not.

I saw this last night and let out a huge sigh. I had never seen the video of them being so openly racist before and fits with their previous agenda. This case seems even more flimsy as they were again asking for a Brazilian along with asking for a leg wax but seems to be insisting they only asked for a leg wax (screen shots disprove), they were even directed to another salon that would accommodate them, but this wasn't good enough.

I think they have their sentencing on the 13th regarding the weapons charges, hopefully stint in prison may do them some good, though I doubt it.

"Her"? Him.

Autumn sadly it looks like I was wrong..

On the JV case, read today that other TRAs (MO) have had a chat with JV and told her whilst they agree that she has a right to being waxed etc JV is not helping their case. Will try to find the source of this,.

He doesn't: they're free to bring before the BCHRT.

I thought JY was facing charges of illegal possession of weapons

Sentencing is next week.

I thought JY was facing charges of illegal possession of weapons after brandishing a taser at Blair White on a livestream.

Silly goose.

Set similar has happened in Australia with the introduction of self-ID at state legislation level. No or not much consultation. I think it got through in a couple of States but no one I know there knows anything about it there. Was dropped by one State. So there is some traction but Australia has other fish to fry right now obvs (excuse the terrible pun).

You've probably seen this article but it did explain some of the tactics employed by the TRAs in getting policy through - it is worth a read blogs.spectator.co.uk/2019/12/the-document-that-reveals-the-remarkable-tactics-of-trans-lobbyists/

I think the goal, inasmuch as there is one, is to be "anti-racist" etc in a way that doesn't endanger the economic status quo.

It's also substantially a kind of nationalism, just not focused on an actual nation. Rather like the black nationalists in the US civil rights movement.

By the way, this only goes so far. Women and First Nations still have a shit time and no one cares.

But these are still treated weirdly by the progressives. Like Trudeau's gender parity cabinet, or declarations of being on unceaded lands all over the place. The CBC (sorry to harp on about them but they really are the public voice of this perspective) loves nothing more than to talk about identity politics issues including women and First Nations people.

I don't think actually addressing real problems is ever what identity politics are about.

I may be wrong but as bad as things are getting here I like to think a British Yaniv asking for her big hairy bollocks to be waxed would have brought about a lot more mockery than happened there.

Yes he’s not the sort of Trans that the woke scolds will want to be associated with. Plus we have a big tradition of tabloid press-they’d definitely be all over the ball waxing story and white van man would say wot a load of old shit. Further to that it is claimed he targets Asians and they’re the largest minority in the UK and I would like to think there would be an outcry?

90+% of Canadians still have no idea any of this happened. There is no debate. The conservatives aren't talking about it, religious groups aren't talking about it, there's a total media cover up and blackout. Yaniv doesn't make the news, unless you get it off the internet. Murphy/Toronto library did make the news but it was framed entirely about free speech. Her beliefs weren't discussed. She won that one, which was just reported as a "victory for free speech."

How has it got to this point in Canada?

My theory is that Canada spends a great deal of time and effort defining itself as Not America. Better socially, more environmentally conscious, more inclusive. They are very invested in this. So this debate goes the same as many others, poorly.

By the way, this only goes so far. Women and First Nations still have a shit time and no one cares.

Just bear in mind that 'suing' someone doesn't constitute endorsement from the courts any further than them agreeing that they've filled out the paperwork correctly. While it's onerous for the owners, they have received compensation in the past (the owners, not the claimant) and I believe the extent of vexatiousness currently required to receive a sanction is necessary to prevent miscarriages of justice.

"How has it got to this point in Canada? I know Canadian GC feminists are looking to those in the UK with hope this madness gets overcome; but what happened specifically in Canada that has let this happen?"

Canada is further down the woke hole than here.
Unrestrited Leftist progressivism with a large side order of identity politics.
Disagree with one thing out of twenty on their list and you are a nazi and kicked out of the intersectional tent.
