Other right-wing accounts variously reacted by describing the move as Orwellian, lamenting the death of free speech and even contemplating leaving Canada for good.

Oh no. Not that. Please no.

litter boxes

Not who you're replying to, but fuck, I forgot about that conspiracy.

Ughhhh. I'm not LGBT, but I hate how they are mistreated and the fucking mental gymnastics and lengths people will do to hate you guys. It's fucking despicable.

Grindr account -> harrassment

Jesus, that's shitty.

Some dudes play the long game to get you to open up and then they post all of your stuff on the town pages and stuff calling you a groomer or a pedo. And the worst part is that most people believe the first thing they see/hear/read so all it takes is one rumour or malicious post and your entire life in the town is upside down. Can’t leave the house to go to the grocery store without someone sneering or making a remark.

Rural Atlantic Canada is absolutely fucked and it wasn’t even this bad 3 years ago when I moved here. Looking to make my exit plan in the next year or so.

Try a larger metro area if you can afford to. The established LGBT communities could probably help you feel a bit more welcome.

That’s the goal. I used to live in a metropolitan area but was priced out and moved more rurally but things now have gotten very very bad where I’m at. Saving some money and hoping I can sell the house before someone burns it down.

I’m hoping I’m just being extreme at the last part 😭

My heart goes out to you, dude. It sounds like a terrible situation.

Hang in there. I'm rooting for you

I'd say move to someplace like the Cowichan Valley on Vancovuer Island, but even rural property is expensive. Maybe Edmonton? Urban, fairly progressive, cold (and therefore less expensive), lots of work.

And now precedent has been established for a lawsuit in this case, at least, despite it being an awful situation as a complete understatement

What do you mean

[-] TheFriar@lemm.ee 2 points 11 months ago

I’m sure they’re fully erect as they swipe through grindr, seething with anger and ejaculate looking to explode.
