    Yeah bruh, they’re the Progressive Conservatives it’s what PC stands for in the name lmfao

    They’re ghouls, but they’ve always been pragmatic ghouls, entirely willing to embrace the local queer community as a fine market to be exploited. I’d never vote for them for obvious reasons but they’ve had their Guys, like Danny Williams who has basically set himself up his own little local fiefdom. But his Anything But Conservative campaign has basically made sure they’ve never had a strong foothold in the province since, so that was cool of him to knife his own party lol

    wtf is 🦞’s point in @ing PP here anyway? is he just ignorant of the fact that provincial parties in Canada, apart from the NDP, are completely unrelated in terms of organization to federal parties? the Progressive Conservative Party of Newfoundland has no official relation to the federal Conservatives or any other federal party and all Poilievre could do is tut at them just like Peterson (although I suspect Poilievre is also interested in being more dogwhistley and less mask-off that Peterson would like)

      “Two-spirit” (or “2S”) is a calque of Ojibwe niizh manidoowag. The term is generally used in English as a catch-all term for various Indigenous North American gender-variant or third-gender roles and identities. Like a lot of LGBT+ terms, however, the “two-spirit” label has its controversies, its fuzz around the edges, and its misusages.

        I’ve heard it also used for non american traditional non binary genders like Aboriginal Australian or even surviving European pre industrial groups like the Feminilli (there’s a lot of commonality with groups in India in these traditions which might speak to a pan-indo-european tradition of gender non conformity lasting at least into late antiquity), but I understand that’s a bit controversial
