The fact that you said fortnight implies that you don’t truly understand the animus of rural america

I am not American, but I think my statement can be said to be true of the US, UK, France, Canada, Spain and Italy at the very least since these are countries whose recent elections I have followed a bit.

“the weapons it’s using against its Anglophone linguistic minority”

Bill 101 and the nothwistanding clause that allows it are not new things. If Ontario or Manitoba were going to use that precedent to limit francophones ability to work in French in Ontario they would probably have done that by now, not that Ontario or Manitoba have ever needed any encouragement to push for the assimilation of these people.

If by weapons (such ridiculous hyperbole) you mean that Quebec is going to spend less on subsidizing foreign students in Anglo Universities, I feel like the anti Indian sentiment in Anglo Canada is going to push them in that direcion already.

Quebec is not responsible if the the rest of Canada chooses to pretend that the status of English is somehow equivalent to French in this country and institute English protection laws. In fact I would argue that is the right of any province, regardless of how unnecessary it would be, and no business of ours.

What responsibility is it of Quebec’s to police how other provinces and the federal government treat non quebecois?

IE regulatory capture and soothing bullshit?

The cats take valuable couch space

Yeah, like a working class person.

No argument was made. I am just responding with a true report from someone who has in fact met working clas speople, being one of them. They are on fact very transphobic,

I don’t enter into it. This is a common opinion amongst people with whom I have worked.

The folks I work with would never associate with the chronically online hexbear types you see here, the ones constantly blaming “crackers” for transphobia.

Yup. They bring them up as reasons why they don’t want their children going to public schools, they don’t want what they see as white perversions infecting their kids.

Why would that matter? I am talking about working class peoples opinions.the answer is 1 roommate 1 lover 1 friend but it is irrelevant

All I said was the truth, do whatever toy want with it. I Didn’t excuse anything.

I am working class. I have packed thousands of cases of avocados, boxed thousands of clothes in a factory, and only recently moved to teaching. Trans issues 100% do alienate everyone I work with. They are brought up by many different people to prove that white people are weak and perverted. This is coming from Sri Lankan garment workers, Vietnamese seamstresses and Mexican avocado packers.

Dude, I’m not your mom for you to complain to about the state of things. What I said is 100% true, and whinging won’t make it less true. This is how these huge companies stay in control of our lives, and now this is how they are going to install fascism. Do with that info what you will.

None of those are essential serveices. There is no alternative, those are just not essential things. In order to get those non essential things we will all stay signed into for the neo nazi revenue and messaging machine.

Your moms room

Honestly, I completely agree with your assesment of the hypocrisy involved. As a second generation British imigrant to Quebec I have never felt like I had any nation of my own at all, and so learning French and adapting to the majority culture seemed obvious. I find the “anglo” identity here of stubborn resistance to all homogenization to be as silly and self defeating as any other nationalistically motivated politics. We are aboard the Titanic, the iceberg is dead ahead, and we are arguing about the arangement of the deck chairs.

I feel like the the great zeitgeist is going to shift towards vindicating the Qubecois and their bloody minded nationalism pretty soon. You can feel the rest of the western world starting to think and act just like the nationalists here.
