Canadians are wild. So many of them, particularly white Canadians, only seem to care about improving their lives and not the lives of others. Meanwhile they still believe that we are this amazing accepting country, the best in the world! Apparently. Canada is no better than the United States, we just hide it better. Do not come here if you expect a better life.

I encountered this guy who was advocating for a higher disability benefit and decided to scroll on his profile to see if I wanted to follow him. He turned out to be incredibly transphobic, homophobic, sexist, and racist? Do you not see the intersection between all of these aspects of our lives?

Who is most likely to be hurt or killed because of how their disability affects them? Who is most likely to be forced to sell their bodies? Who is most likely to be denied benefits and assistance? Who is most likely to experience discrimination based on their socioeconomic status? Who is primarily affected by MAID? (Medical assistance in death, eugenics in practice.) It's not people like you.

Freedom for me and not for thee is such a fucking bullshit stance to take. Solidarity or death, there is no other way out. Disabled people are being killed, queer people are being killed, BIPOC are being killed. We have to stand together, otherwise who will stand for you when we are gone?
