Senator Paula Simons stands in the Chamber alongside colleagues to reaffirm the rights of 2SLGBTQIA+ Canadians, call out partisan scapegoating of trans Canadian, and dispel myths about the danger to children. She joins the Honourable Senator René Cormier and others in the Red Chamber urging the government to convene its national anti-hate action plan as promised in Budget 2023 - and draws disturbing parallels between transphobia and antisemitism.

Excellent speech by Canada’s most excellent Senator https://mstdn.ca/@Paulatics

Most people also have trouble empathizing with people who lash out and get hostile anytime they receive feedback that can be even slightly perceived as criticism.

If you’re wondering who would ever do such a thing, I encourage you to visit the nearest restroom and look into the large piece of glass hanging above the sink.

This is how you started, and it didn’t get any better as the conversation continued:

Nice knee jerk response to valid criticism. It is objectively difficult to support a cause when […] knee jerking shit heads like yourself

Does that sound like something that “can be even slightly perceived as criticism”? Perhaps there’s some room for improvement. You could try not insulting people if you don’t like people being offended by what you say.
