Piatkowski later told a local CTV station, however, that Burjoski’s comments were actually transphobic and “questioned the right to exist” of trans people. He said he had no choice but to expel the teacher from the meeting. He told 570 News radio that Burjoski was “disrespectful” towards transgender people and was “not promoting healthy debate” at the meeting. The organization took down its recording of the meeting — a regular, public session of elected officials — and had YouTube remove another copy of the video for alleged copyright infringement.

The teacher was given what she calls a “stay-at-home order” and told not to communicate with colleagues or students. She retired soon after and was hospitalized for extreme anxiety.

She launched a defamation lawsuit, which the board sought to have thrown out. In a Nov. 23 ruling, Ramsay dismissed the bid and ordered the board to pay Burjoski $30,000 in costs. He said her claims have merit and should be allowed to proceed, adding the comments made against her were “defamatory.”

“They accused her of breaching the Human Rights Code, questioning the right of trans persons to exist and engaging in speech that included hate. She did not do any of those things,” the judge said in his ruling.

So censorship, by government officials who 'know better' and are taking the moral high ground to take down hate speech...

“The chairman of the board acted with malice or at least, with a reckless disregard for the truth. He had made an embarrassingly erroneous and arbitrary decision to silence a legitimate expression of opinion and he was widely criticized for it. It is not a stretch to infer that, realizing that, he tried to justify himself with the public by assassinating the plaintiff’s character.”

The judge said he saw no prospect Piatkowski will be able to prove his statements were based in fact, since he accused her of saying things she did not say.

Only it turns out government officials, like any human, are sometimes lying shitbags.

I guess that could be an important question to me, if I thought the progressive left or the acolytes of John Money had something of value to share with the world.

Whatever their words are, their actions say 'we love poverty, but hate the poors'.

Yes, it could be an important question to you. Given your position on the matter of gender identity, going by Cunt might be problematic.

I could see a conflict between the extreme right insistence on a gender appropriate name like Prick, or the left demanding you be Trans-Cunt.

It would suck to be no-man's land in the cutlure wars, wouldn't it? The assholes who perpetuate this nonsense are the real pricks.

If I were weak or soft enough to be injured by words, I might welcome protection from people misgendering me, or others applauding it.

I've only put one person on 'ignore', and not for their harsh words. For other reasons.

You I've simply suspended/banned occasionally, for behaviour I consider not appropriate to this forum.

Curious - for those of you who like censorship being in the hands of government...

Is censorship good? Or trouble in the hands of those protecting convicted child-traffickers?

You don't suspend/ban anybody because you're not staff. This is just word games.

You demonstrably are, given you have me on ignore.

You are banned for the rest of the night.

No games, just sensible treatment of someone who doesn't want to understand.

Way to show you aren't hurt by words, snowflake!

I'm not hurt by words, but it is tricky to navigate censorship rules. If you want to be freer with your words (and with the responses they get) you can go find such.

If you want to be in a moderated forum, expect a bit of it. It's not such a terrible thing to be suspended for awhile. It didn't hurt you, did it?

As I noted before, you aren't suspending anyone. Just another powerless dweeb pretending he's not what he is.

If you want to troll, of course that's up to you. If you actually want to consider a tough question, you could give it a go...

But I have my doubts.

And he changes the subject. So predictable.
