@beehaw.orgtheir resources are spread thin, Im sure a significant effort is being focused on helping Trump
Yes, no kidding people are more afraid of Trump. He wants to dismantle democracy and install himself and Christian facists. He wants to arrest and deport "dissidents", citizens and non-citizens, millions of people.
Are you implying Americans are complicit in genocide if they vote against their country becoming a violent facist state? (especially when when Trump, would also 100% make things worse in Gaza. He is a known islamaphobe, and has called for Netanyahu to "finish the job" etc). This is why people are getting pissy.
There is absolutely a better chance of a new approach with Harris than with Trump, and to say otherwise is not based in reality.
I think people do care a lot, but this is the worst election to protest or shut down because of it. I know people always say that but in this case its true.
Either way the people of Gaza have a much better chance if Trump is decisively defeated. Again, Trump is closely aligned with Netanyahu, and has said the IDF needs to "finish the job". I would think people would be motivated to vote against him.
right, but she is still the better choice in this matter by a wide, wide margin.
Not voting or voting for Trump because of this one issue , important though it is, and allowing a christo-facist authoritarian to assume power as a result seems like a horrible irresponsible take. (Not to mention Trump would only embolden Netanyahu and his cabinet.)
How would abstaining or voting for Trump help the situation in Gaza at all?
edit: I read the bill, its here: https://www.bclaws.gov.bc.ca/civix/document/id/bills/billscurrent/5th42nd:gov22-1
It specifically focusses on protests on school grounds, or protests that impede access to schools. Thats it. Where does it mention other kinds of protest?
https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/british-columbia/b-c-ban-protests-outside-schools-1.7170029
from the article:
Eby says the province has counted 18 major disruptions at schools across the province since the start of the school year, and several more before September, including demonstrators banging on classroom windows at a school in Burns Lake.
"[It's] concerning, frightening, alarming and it makes school feel like a not safe place," he said.
Eby said all of the incidents the province has counted involved demonstrators against SOGI 123 — the province's optional educational resource for teaching about sexual orientation and gender identity — but said the law is content-neutral and will be applied equally regardless of the cause.
Read the article, this is about preventing adults from protesting on school grounds, not outright banning protesting.
You think transphobic protests should be allowed to stand on school grounds making kids and teachers uncomfortable?
this doesnt prevent students or college protests, its to prevent outsiders protesting on school grounds ("think of the children" conservatives, Qnuts, religious or prolife groups etc etc)
This is a successful and enjoyable (and understabdably ludicrous, it is deadpool for craps sake) movie. This guy seems a bit confused about the current problem facing movies, and entertainment production generally.
Its fair to be worried about what trends are driving what movies get made or not. But that is less to do with creative storytelling choices made in these movies. It is more studios being run by business vultures wanting short term massive returns only, even if it means no longer making anything else but trend chasing mega films.
However thats a different conversation entirely.
