> In some jurisdictions, women's prisons have been incarcerating males who say they are women. Some of these males have then subsequently raped, sexually assaulted and even impregnated female inmates who have been forced to cohabit with them. Do you have any citations? I’d be fascinated to read.

Statistically it barely registers against a backdrop of male guards raping and impregnating women in womens prison. ie. While technically 'true' it's a massive amplification of an anti trans talking point at the expense a mauch larger real issue that's ignored .. because the propogators don't actually care about women in prison, that's just a mask of concern for the sake of the pretence.

> This is why in women's prisons that prioritise safeguarding of inmates, sex-based staffing ratios are implemented so that there are sufficient female prison guards to keep a watchful eye on any male guards that may be present.
Nice theory, doesn't appear to work in practice:

etc. etc. etc. ( there are many examples of this, in the UK and elsewhere )

As stated, trans prisoners pose significantly less threat than male prison guards: > This is why in women's prisons that prioritise safeguarding of inmates, sex-based staffing ratios are implemented so that there are sufficient female prison guards to keep a watchful eye on any male guards that may be present.

I see some fringe russophiles on both left and right wing, both here in europe and in US. But in 99% of cases it's „I hate my government, so I just believe in opposite if what they say“. The only sincere love for actual Russia is Stalin-adoring tankies. But that's what.. the 0.00001%?
Sure, but tankies miiiight be 1% of the left while the Russophilia is pretty strong in the entire alt-right, which is like 40% of the right. The problems are similar in nature but different in scale.
Here in Lithuania alt-right is very anti-Russian since we have both pretty good on-the-ground information as well as, let's say, historical experience. It's funny watching our alt-right meeting West alt-right.

Can you elaborate? Have there been a spate of attacks in bathrooms from transgendered folks that I've missed? They are, of course, still single- gender spaces. What exactly is lost when losing a single- sex space while keeping it to a single gender?

Do the young even have someone to vote for in Canada though? Only the PPC wants to stop immigration and build housing but they are a fringe party unlikely to get a single seat rather than run the country. The BQ is a decent option in Quebec, but in the rest of Canada pretty much any party that has seats currently is far too pro-immigration and far too pro-Boomer to get anything done on house prices. PP is very good a…
Every party talks about lowering house prices, but the only government that has been successful at lowering prices has been David Eby's NDP government in BC. So yes, the young have a great party to vote for.
You can't bring in enough people for 800,000 homes if you have historically built around 250,000 and the best government in the country manages an 11% increase without inflating rents and making the housing crisis worse. We need to radically slow the insane surge in demand so that building more housing has a chance to keep up. Canada has historically had 2.3 people per home so if we increase builds to 300,000/year we can support bringing in roughly 660,000 people with stable prices. If we bring in 2M everyone can guess what will happen.

And then people wonder why all sorts of conspiracy theories pop up and post-truth stuff takes off.

Technically true, but let's not talk, because it goes against the narrative some people are trying to push. Nice. And then people wonder why all sorts of conspiracy theories pop up and post-truth stuff takes off.
