This is just incredible. A female teacher voiced her concerns about school materials that painted a medically unrealistic picture of transition. So this dude accused her of transphobia and threw her out of the meeting. Now he's bragging about doing it.
Beyond satire: They couldn't even figure out how to pin a transphobia rap on the woman, so now they're claiming that she "opened the door to transphobic comments"

This is a school board trustee, apologizing to anyone "harmed" by ... a teacher asking a question about a book

As of a few hours ago, apparently, we weren't allowed to see the video. @ScottPiatkowski realizes the whole thing isn't quite as good a look as he first imagined, and is saying that watching him bully a woman might cause "harm" ....
Update: the video was apparently posted and was then taken down. Scott seems to be in damage ctrl mode
This is what the YouTube thumbnail was this morning, before the video was abruptly taken down
Here's a town councilor repeating the lie that this was about enforcing the ontario human rights code
By the way, one of the school board trustees cheering on @ScottPiatkowski the loudest is running for the @OntarioNDP ... not a surprise, since school board is junior varsity prep for an mpp run in many cases. This cult is what the whole province soon gets
"So very real"
Grade 1 teacher cheering a dude who smacked down a female colleague who'd asked about a book that presents transition as a solution to life's problems
This is one of the four trustees who voted to let the teacher speak. She is now begging for forgiveness for having done so.

wow it gets better. our dude @ScottPiatkowski, the social-justice champ who throws women out of @wrdsb meetings if they give him lip, is the only white guy in the group. (Conveniently, he's also the chairperson!) The trustee publicly opposing him is—yup—the only non-white trustee
@ScottPiatkowski @wrdsb But hey, you can watch Scott in action for yourselves ....

A group called Mohawk Mothers has been seeking to delay/block McGill U’s “New Vic” project in Montreal—based on claims of secret burials & unmarked Indigenous graves on the site. Today, @mcgillu’s provost reported that no graves were found, including in areas identified by GPR... Image
(no word yet on whether McGill's leadership team will be indicted on charges of "denialism")

By the way, can anybody find a news source where this has been public reported? If any remains had been found (here or anywhere), it would be leading every news broadcast. It'd be odd if the opposite news were confined to an internal McGill email

I spoke to Richard a few times. He was publicly denounced by an equity consultant hired by TDSB to tell white ppl how racist they are. Richard questioned her absurd claims, & the woman used him as a case study in evil "whiteness"
This is what's become of TDSB under @TDSBDirector
There's a recording of this equity consultant hysterically attacking Richard for his supposed racistness. In the fullness of time, it should all be made public. This tragic episode gives us a window into the sadistic mindset of the fanatics who've taken over our school boards
last year, Richard brought me in as a guest speaker for a Toronto group concerned about the state of education. I learned Richard wasn't a conservative. He was a progressive who'd seen the harm that social justice fanaticism causes to society. He tried to be part of the solution

a lot of parents are now telling me that their teenagers' social media feeds, especially TikTok, have started to shift 180 degrees on genderwang. the once-revered (bio-male) trans "influencers" & athletes are becoming figures of ridicule. pendulum seems to be swinging back hard
Teenagers aren't dumb, but they do move in herds. The genderwang stuff was fun when it felt vaguely transgressive and daring. Now that they hear their dinosaur teachers and parents mumbling pronoun checks (not to mention the Bud Light & Hershey's fiascos), it's time to move on
I'm trying to guess what the next fad will be. Maybe putting shoe polish on your face & calling yourself transracial. I know that sounds insane, but it's actually less idiotic (& will do less medical damage) to depressed goths than sterilizing themselves in the name of genderwang

I've been struck by this too. Most Canadians are sensible. But then u find surreal college-town clusters of wealthy white paranoiacs convinced they all have long covid & that we inhabit a white supremacist genocide state (whose sins must be expiated by baby-jesus drag queens)...
Since these people don't leave campus or their homes to mix with commoners (shopping is done online, & they often work from home), they've been left to create a bizarrely cultish sub-society that exists, in electronic form, in a way that's completely detached from real life....
For the rest of us, it's like living next to a cult commune whose inhabitants are seen only on rare occasions. When we do see em, we're gobsmacked, which is why these things go viral on social media: insane DEI sessions, Karens freaking out on service workers, mask fanaticism etc

This person ("they/her," naturally) is the Associate Director of the Centre for Learning & Teaching at @DalhousieU .... This is their/her reaction to the lifting of mask mandates at the university Image

The takeaway here is that this esteemed academic has just outed them/her/zhèlves as a functionary at an institution her/they has identified as a fascistic hate group.
