Sorry, thanks for the correction. I cleaned up the confused misinformation on my part. Thanks again. I still see "social justice issues" as gaining favor in society, and suspect Trudeau is easy to get on board these types of issues as they pick up in society. We have some tough hate speech laws already while the US has more free speech so their social justice "hate speech" issues will not likely pick up much steam.

The Liberal party has generally championed social justice tempered with fiscal reality. The NDP tends to lean more toward championing social justice without regards for fiscal reality.
I'm not a fan eliminating words from our language because it might offend but I do find it disturbing to hear the level of hate that is creeping into some attitudes even in my own circle of acquaintances where they feel it is okay to indiscriminately dislike or hate a whole group of people.
Indeed. I dislike the conservatives, like Harper. I dislike all politicians and political parties pretty much hehe. In no way do I hate Muslims, gays, transgender, etc. I am just not going to be calling someone by one of the 40 plus "pronouns" or whatever as if I need to be careful not to "offend" someones self-identified label of themselves ;)
Oh I get that .. well with the exception that I do support women using Ms rather than Mrs or Miss .. it not only makes things less complicated for them but it removes the vestiges of patriarchy over them.
I've heard there is supposedly many gender labels these days. That confuses the hell out of me. I get male, female and trans for those moving between. I don't get what else there could be and why. Maybe I'm showing my age lol
