Because it doesn't take an academic to understand the difference between a domestic dispute being taken advantage of and someone who's being cleansed by a regime.

If this person was a trans person from Afghanistan then that absolutely would have been a justified refugee claim.

Stop being disingenuous. There are plenty of states in the US that are very LBGT friendly. This person was in Colorado, which has extremely lax gun laws, so of fucking course they're at risk of gun violence. And it's not state-sponsored violence, it was a personal conflict. They have many, many options to ensure their safety in the US, including changing their name and moving. Both of which are easier than moving to Canada.

Being targeted by a single person doesn't make someone applicable for asylum. And there are about 49 other states this person can move to if they actually cared about finding a solution. We shouldn't put this person on the same level as victims of state-sponsored genocide, political prisoners, and others. There are other plenty of other cases of people not receiving police protection from stalkers, just because they're trans doesn't means that's why.

Lmfao this is a joke right? It's this person's responsibility to find new accomodations, and move if they need to. You can't just fucking claim asylum because you have a stalker. Absolutely ridiculous argument.

Because their claim is bullshit and they were trying to defraud a system used for cases of actual persecution.

What's sweet tomato sauce? Do they mean ketchup?

I corrected my comment. The article I posted was written by a medical anthropologist, not a conservative think tank.

Friendly reminder that Israel sterilized administered birth control shots without informed consent to Ethiopian Jewish women who were trying to invoke the Law of Return and migrate to Israel.

Semi-related: with the Switch 2 coming out later this year are we likely to see Nvidia release a Shield 2? I guess it also depends on if the Switch uses a Tegra processor or not?

I'm a Canadian who leans left and I was starting to get fed Nazi videos. Usually videos of "what could have been" set to background audio of one of Hitler's speeches. You'd be surprised at how many Arabs and Slavs are in the comments wishing that he won, waxing nostalgic about a future ruled by the "Austrian painter."

I wish cigarettes weren't cigarettes

Is this the same guy who owns the MalibuArtist channel on YouTube? Love his videos, but for fuck's sake dude, tell the swimmers when there's a great white right underneath them.

TLoU1 was that game for me. Way too heavy to play again

Lmfao pig bastard got what he deserved I guess

"...but the aesthetic is dope"

The only reasonable excuse for attacking this data was that it helped the Russian war effort. Eg. flying in supplies, planning offensives, missile and UAV flight planning, etc.
