The number one reason Canadians move to Dubai is to HIDE assets so they don't pay Canadian taxes or do crypto scams. Forget about ever getting citizenship in Dubai (UAE), it takes 30 YEARS without marriage, 10 years with marriage MAYBE. also can't own a business without UAE citizen as a a partner.

The ignorance he displays is incredible. I can only assume he has limited world experience and narrow social circles along with an utter lack of compassion for the 1000s and 1000s of slaves who build Dubai and have been held to work without access to their ID or the state care this man brags about.

Just a reminder Dubai is a dictatorship with a slave economy & a tax and personal haven for tax dodgers, money laundering, pedos and rapists create solely for that purpose. Why do you think MAGA & the 1 percent love the place.

The approximate cause of death for Anne Frank was the Nazis. The specific cause of death was the outbreak of Typhus at Bergen-Belsen camp, which overtook her (and others) from chronic malnutrition and medical abuse. These conditions are not, in character, unlike our system of immigration camps today

I swear I will never be Canadian enough to live in Canada comfortably just like I was never American enough for USA. It's funny that the most comfortable I felt was in India & Malaysia where I was "other" from jump. I can't do performative politeness or accept polite racism.

I think it was the amount of comments that treated us trans masc people as something they owned or were appendages to them was the most sickening thing. This was 2006 in San Francisco & I still remember how harmful they were to the trans masc present. I lost friends that day but it was for the best.

On behalf of the French, no one should be more French. How about the hot take of not being ignorant & learning basic communication, accountability & healthy boundaries in all your relationships, platonic or romantic...

Reminds when I was at workshop for femme transmasc folks at a Femme conference & cis femme lesbians were screaming that they were losing THEIR butch women to transness & that transmascs were BAD & anti-queer for transitioning after they did "all the work of loving & supporting them as butch women."

the guy "teaching" my Canadian Citizenship class just suggested using Chatgpt to learn more about Canadian history. Considering I'm 100% he is just reading a script he personally doesn't understand not surprising but WHAT THAT FUCK. Also kept calling France, Spain instead.

Exactly, your ignorance is not helpful in any way. Glad you understand how utterly useless it is to say 100,000 of trans folks should go to Canada cause it's next to the country. Why not Mexico or do you not know geography that well?

If you said trans people should get asylum in those countries to yeah I would say you are lying & to educate yourself before you speak. Being ignorant is not an excuse for spreading misinformation. Are you even trans?

You are an American and your location doesn't change your false beliefs about Canada. Why not just start saying the UK is a safe harbour too?

That is a lie. The USA is not a nation listed for refugee status in Canada and not a single trans person from the USA has gotten refugee status. Source-me a trans person in Canada who works with Rainbow Refugees.

I wish Americans would learn anything about the countries they think are safe havens
Alberta and Quebec have anti trans policies.

She’d Never Changed Her Gender Marker. Kansas Invalidated Her License Anyway. β€” Assigned A trans Kansas resident recently changed her name but not her gender marker on her license, fearing what Kansas may do if she did. The Kansas DMV still flagged her ID.

This story, from @natezuke.bsky.social, is absolutely wild. A trans woman who never changed her gender marker was issued a letter invalidating her license. At the DMV they cut up her license, which had an "M" marker.

Anti-Trans Zealots inventing a moral panic to deflect actual sexual coercion they've engaged in for decades.

When I came out as Trans as a teen, I was consistently told I should just be a gay man and pushed to sleep with men before transition even though I only ever expressed attraction to women.

I am so tired of fragile little men starting wars. I am so tired of fragile little men making policy decisions that harm us all. I am so tired of fragile little men doing horrendous harm to children and expecting us all to forget about it. I am so tired of fragile little men with their tantrums.

I know that I sound like a broken record but I think once this society was ok with accepting mass covid deaths just to be able to eat at Applebees then all bets were off.

The three journalists who helped ruin Ava Cordero's life when she tried to stop Epstein in 2006 *currently* work at NBC News, New York Magazine, and News Corp Australia. The one at NBC News is covering... Epstein.

This country will always treat property above human beings because ultimately the capitalist class that runs it only cares about accumulating wealth on the back of human suffering.
