For people who like to blame women for not trying to get help from cops - you don't understand why many women won't call cops ever again. You'd rather keep blaming women than trying to understand why most of us would never trust cops again.
I'd rather die fighting off someone attacking me than calling any cops for help. I'm far from the only non-white woman who feels that way in 2026.#Misogyny #Patriarchy #Chauvinism #SystematicRacism #WarOnThePoor #StateFundedDomesticTerrorists #ACAB

Systematic racism includes not honouring treaties with Indigenous people, while our genocide suppporting governments are trying to promote patriotic nationalism.
Whitewashing, funded by our tax dollars.

Listen more to the voices of pregnant oppressed Indigenous women & less to voices of unoppressed non-Indigenous women. The former have valid, justified fears of hospitals because of the fact that countless pregnant Indigenous women received involuntary surgeries to render them unable to give birth again. Others had their babies stolen from them, without consent or any prior consultations. I've listened to many personal horror stories about this - from my mid-20s to now.
Canada only ended its cultural genocide/eugenics on Indigenous on paper. They never really stopped their attempts to genocide Indigenous peoples. I am not being dramatic about this. It is a fact. A fact that almost all settlers conveniently choose to ignore.

Most pregnant Indigenous women in Canada have drastically different public health care experiences than other pregnant Canadian women. Many pregnant Indigenous women still have valid, justified fears about systematic racism in public health care because most are still treated like shit. That is a fact. I refuse to give much praise to Canadian public health care until they actually do better, on this ongoing systematic racism issue - as well as doing better on masking up in all medical/health care settings. Eugenics in Canada is happening to this day - with ongoing systematic racism & lack of public health safety by medical staff, who should know better but aren't choosing to do better.

Hitting up the phone lines again tonight.
I was waiting on one friend & he's a paramedic who got called in. I'm now waiting on 7 different volunteers for tonight's #phonebanking #RemoteProtest to support #Minnesota under siege by #ICENazis aka #TrumpsTerrorists.
We're volunteer #Canadians who have been on the #BoycottUSA #SanctionUSA trains for longer than this NectarineNazi was in office - the first time!I don't actually understand why ANY (except MAGA fools) still thinks this #FascistUSA is anywhere close to fucking OK! Except for #SystematicAbuse #SystematicRacism.
WRONG IS FUCKING WRONG.

I'm going to do a full context video report tomorrow because it's important for other #Canadians to know how the #GovernmentOfCanada has tried to bully my Mom since even before #BCNDP #BCgovernment #FailuresToProtect citizens with #covid.
This is now the 3rd time that federal government has severely fucked up & demanded my Mom - who has been fucking retired early since Summer of 2020 - to pay them back funds she's eligible for. First time they fucked up was in 2022 & it took 9 months for feds to admit they fucked up & they had to send Mom retroactive payments while we were planning Dad's funeral. 2nd time they fucked up was 1 year after & they stopped her OAS payments & also threatened her with stopping all federal benefits that she earned from working her entire life after coming to Canada as a war refugee in November 1980.
It took over 11 months for feds to stop threatening my family for yet another one of their admin fuck ups. Their big fuck ups end up putting more traumas on our backs. Yes - we are fucking ANGRY.#KKKanada #WarRefugees #NotFreeloaders #AntiRacism #RefugeesAsylum #CdnPoli #BCpoli #RacistCanada #GovernmentFailures #SystematicRacism #Bigotry #CanadaFails #Racism

Before I head out for the day ->
Recommended #documentary film.Between 1952 and 1960, Britain fought a vicious war in Kenya against the anticolonial Mau Mau movement. It was an exceptionally bloody conflict, with atrocities committed on both sides. For decades, many of the worst abuses by British colonial forces were kept hidden. Piecing together survivor testimonies and expert analysis from British and Kenyan historians, this film tells a complete and detailed story for the first time of how Britain was involved in systemic torture – including accounts of murders, rapes and forced castrations.
A Very British Way of Torture is a film by Ed McGown and produced by Rob Newman.

I guess this would help explain how some people in the US can be longtime Star Trek fans but react so negatively to women and BIPOC in principal roles.
The results of the study at the link above found that people who held strong racial or gender stereotypes would not believe in the intelligence or capabilities of characters that confounded their expectations.
It’s disappointing and discouraging but, unsurprising validation of how deeply embedded is both unconscious and conscious bias.
I’m also concerned that these kinds of findings may encourage studio executives and schedulers to pander to prejudice rather than continuing to advance representation as a means to challenge prejudice and bias.
