Alberta just introduced Bill 9, which exists for one and only one purpose: deleting the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms as it pertains to trans kids, denying them the right to life and stripping their healthcare away.
This is cruel, anti-democratic and anti-constitutional.

Yes. That is the lesson. That is the fucking lesson.
I'm struck by this clip of former Obama speechwriter Sarah Hurwitz saying Holocaust education has backfired in part because people Palestinians as victims: "They think the lesson of the Holocaust is…you fight the big powerful people hurting the weak people."

i'm so curious about trump's new position they should release the files ... does that mean the bad bits have actually now been erased in what might come out, or he's confident it'll never actually happen despite a house vote, or just is now confident it won't affect him no matter how bad
