Serves me well for using Shitcord.

The irony of this is that I said that in the context of a debate about the Canadian ruling which decided that saying you don't believe in gender identity is a form of illegal discrimination.

Honestly so mad about this shit. Hadn't suffered any kind of kick/ban/etc. related to this nonsense in a while because nowadays I just avoid platforms that practice this kind of insane discrimination. It makes me fume.

I wonder if the idiots behind these kind of decisions understand just how angry this kind of injustice makes people, taking away their capability to socially connect with others. It's a pretty serious punishment for some people who rely heavily on this kind of tech to socialize. Suddenly I'm cut off from all my contacts on Shitcord for 24 hours and can't even inform them why I can't respond.

@taylan What?

Just stating an opinion is a form of discrimination?

Even if you're just... a random person talking to a random person??

@taylan My bad, I didn't realise it was an image AND a PDF link.

Will read the image text now.

@taylan Oh dear lord.

There's a massive logical flaw in there somewhere, but I'm too tired to dig it out.

It might be just assuming the existence of gender identity in the first place, as the court appears to do. And the court is making a flawed comparison (and possibly the defence as well), the proper comparison would be to "people saved by god".

Christians would be properly compared to people who believe in gender identity, as the defence suggests. The court conflates "people who believe in gender identity" with "transgender people" as if they were the same group.

I'm sure there's something else wrong with it too, but see being too tired.

Also, there's loads of people there who don't believe atheists exist. By this logic, atheists should be able to claim discrimination on the grounds of their existence is being denied whenever someone says something along the lines of "no atheists in fox holes".
Would the Canadian court be equally happy to ban such claims? Somehow I think not.

@Gnomeshatecheese @taylan
it also implies that transsexuals who don't believe in gender identity are not trans, like Corinna Cohn or Miranda Yardley.

@dagda @taylan It would seem so.
And also potentially denying their own existence, and therefore committing discrimination on themselves.
Potentially.

they both have to be careful if they say the forbidden words they may turn to dust immediately.
At least according to the latest fatwa of the secular theocracy of Canada

@dagda @taylan They should turn themselves in to the police and film the event. Demand the police arrest them for discrimination against themselves.
