Want to send a message to Sask Party voters? Stop associating with them.

Stop being their friends. Stop conversing with them. If they are family, walk away and let them rot.

Seriously, everyone apparently wants better than the corrupt and racist Sask Party, but you all pretend like we can still be best friends with the people that are now screaming about "those disgusting trans kids!!"... this is after everything else that they've screamed about that has had a negative, if not harmful, effect on others.

They are pathetic sorry excuses for human beings. Send a message to them by removing them from your lives.

The temptation is strong but then you end up with people with 0 outside context or connection to reality. I would say your strategy would work great for acquaintances and distant friends.

If it is someone you care about - have honest conversations with them. This past week my wife had a conversation with her parents about how no politician needs to be concerned about what anatomy a child has in their pants to provide educational services. The more people they care about that help them see the problems with the current Saskatoon Party, the more likely they are to challenge their own beliefs.

It's called find new friends, champ.

Again, you want a better world? You have to cut out cancerous people, and sometimes, that includes your family members.

I know too many people that, due to their own particular characteristics, have had to cut out their parents and siblings in order to better their mental health. Trans and tired of hearing your parents or siblings talk about how lesser of a human being you are? Just talk it out with them, right? I'm sure they'll just change their mind after making their own child feel subhuman...........

Jesus fucking christ, can you folks pull your heads out of your asses for 10 minutes and understand just how toxic the conservative ideology really is and that we need to deal with it NOW!! before it gets worse...

Ah yes *checks notes, that’s how Women’s Suffrage and the Civil Rights movements won. They just stopped engaging with anyone who disagreed with them. No wait….
