I just fucking know this shit is coming to the UK and simply being a game dev that doesn't do pronouns is going to get you put in jail for fuck's sake lol ;_;
I just fucking know this shit is coming to the UK...
It's already there.
...and simply being a game dev...
How do you know if someone is a game dev?
Don't worry, they'll tell you!
JK, love you. ;)
...that doesn't do pronouns is going to get you put in jail for fuck's sake lol ;_;
We're not there...yet. Yet. It is, absurdly, a very real worry, though. And I find it utterly mind boggling - and this is coming from someone who hates the government - just how worried and afraid UK residents should be of their own governments. Canada, and Australia, have you guys beat for now, but it's a tight race.
I'll just put this out there, if it ever comes up, vote down "assisted" "suicide" as hard as you can. It's sad but hilarious that government murder of its citizens is now a hallmark of Canadianism.
lol as if voting will make a difference, my country is going to vote Labour next election, I think it's a guarantee now because the Conservatives have stabbed everyone in the back far too much. I know I bitch about this a lot but it really is going to affect my work a shit ton, I'll probably calm down a lot once I've left the country. The normies are going to normie hard on this in the UK and I won't be able to stand it. Then they'll wave their arms around and be all oh no how could this happen?
I fucking refuse to see my tax money going to any of this shit which is why really I'd sooner move to some African country than deal with any of that shit but as I've mentioned before South America generally is where I'm potentially aiming.

Nice, you're escaping?! Where are you going?

Taxation is, unironically, theft. Also indirect violence, since it's usually turned back around to hurt the taxpayer. Taxation is not only theft, but metaphorical battery and rape too. Fuck taxes.
...I'd sooner move to some African country than deal with any of that shit but as I've mentioned before South America generally is where I'm potentially aiming.
Yikes. Good luck, South/Africa sounds pretty fucking dangerous, but I'm sure there are safer zones. Just don't be a farmer, I guess? And never relax.
From the sound of it the Conservatives aren't much better anyway. It's pretty bad if they're so pozzed that the left isn't bothering to cheat them out of elections. As bad as the Republicans are at least they haven't reached that point. The flip side is they'll never be allowed to take real power again.
Okay, a bit of autistic background for UK politics as they are now.
The Conservatives are terrible, but at the same time I encourage everybody to go and check out the UK Labour Party conference videos by Callum of Lotus Eaters. He's done a very good job compiling their insanity, it's not an exaggeration to state that if Labour get into power it will be ten times worse and we'll swiftly become almost as bad as South Africa because of the amount of actual retards they have in the party. Not an exaggeration either some of them are clearly mentally ill.
I have good instincts on normies in the UK and I trust that and my instincts tell me this is going to be more of the same. I know this because in the most recent election the conservative voters simply stayed home. Did they vote for a third party candidate or field their own to tell both parties to get fucked? No and I bet many of them secretly simply switched to Labour as well.
If Labour gets in as well it won't be a case of accelerationism which I'm admittedly in favour of so maybe this is what we need. However there are so many ways they could fuck things up so much worse. Chief of which is Brexit, Labour are very much in the remain camp, coalition with lib dems possibly? If it's a close election which it will likely be because the normies will never vote for a new third party and that will mean they could push for rejoining the EU and it's entirely possible another referendum which the normies will vote for because the Conservatives deliberately sabotaged everything and copy-pasted EU law.
So fuck it, I'm not waiting around for that to happen, getting away to a country that's nowhere near the EU bollocks which is why the South American continent is going to be my likely target. Governments there as well will be too poor to enforce nonsense like hate speech so that's another win for me.
Something we can do about it is to mock Canada/UK whenever it comes up.
"Oh you're from Canada? Canada's nice I guess but don't you wish you had free speech?" "We have free speech, it's in the Charter!!" "No I mean like actual free speech like the 1st Amendment not pretend free speech".
It should be so annoying that Canadians don't even mention their country because they'll get shamed for no free speech.
Let's be real though as funny as that would be, most leftists and even normies deep down are full of shit when it comes to free speech. That's how Qu'ran book burning bans and tearing down statues are even a thing. If western countries had any actual spine.
This is what I have to keep explaining to people who are lucky enough to not have to live with the fucks day by day. These people are only ever going to care about the state of society when it effects their bank accounts, netflix and their pizza deliveries. Hunkering down and keeping out of the way of everything until it starts collapsing is really all I've got when it comes to western countries that aren't getting even half-decent leaders.
It's something Count Dankula noted quite well and he found shocking, many people don't actually know what free speech means and a lot of the times especially normies end up having their limits more than they care to admit which is how this shit all happens in the first place, I hate it.
I'd wager that 95%+ of leftists actually believe Canada has free speech.
Example: the wikipedia articles on the Charter say they have so much free speech it's even more than America. Completely and purposely ignoring the very first Section that states ALL their rights (not just free speech) are subject to "reasonable limits prescribed by law as can be demonstrably justified in a free and democratic society".
America: 'no law abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press'
Canada: 'no rights if there's a law against, but maybe if the law is ridiculous you can have your "rights" back'
Their prime directive is that laws supersede their rights unless unreasonable. They only have reasonable rights rather than inalienable ones (ie actual rights).
Everything they've ever seen said Canada has free speech and they've never even thought about it. They honestly believe they have free speech and reading that Canada doesn't is shocking to them. That's why it's effective, it's like throwing cold water on them.
Yeah, as a Canadian I'd endorse it but they've done such an effective blitz on turning freedom into a dirty word it'd be pretty much spitting in the wind at this point.
You get it, probably because you're in Canada yourself but it's really only people who have lived amongst leftists especially that truly understand how bad their mentality is. Most normies I know have a major left wing bent but they'll never admit to it and try to pretend they're apolitical, they're liars.

You people don't understand that I'd rather get shot at than deal with woke leftists daily and yes, they're that bad.
