are you saying they aren't legal in Canada? I'm sure they are, I'm constantly inadvertently clicking on 55+ developments when I'm clicking around property in Gibsons.

here in BC we specifically carve out age restrictions on housing from human rights discrimination law. that applies to children too. you can get pregnant and have to move if your building doesn’t allow kids.

Anyways i got 3.5 years left on my foreclosure credit hit before I can get a mortgage, so i gotta buy something cash if I do buy something. i'm at 6 figgies in the bank but not at the 6.5 level (by the yospos definition of 6.5) but we're just livin cheap and puttin cash back. eventually i will have enough to either buy a small cabin or purchase citizenship in some also-ran Caribbean nation and call it good

ontario human rights code allows for age 65+ buildings. we have 55+ buildings here that are actually illegal but afaik nobody has bothered to challenge them in court so they exist in a legal gray area

That’s just a pilot program for nationwide deployment, they’re testing the waters for how being an open apartheid state will be received (again).

That the Dems haven’t gotten rid of the senate filibuster and passed a voter rights act yet says they’re 100% fine with it.

Matt Taibbi is a bit of a crank but he was 100% about one thing in his 2016 postmortem - in the post civil rights era there was an effort made to see all Americans as Americans first and black, Muslim, whatever second. That is dead as gently caress in the post-2016 era and we’re absolutely going back to the pre-1964 status quo because the revanchists are in charge and there is no will among elected officials to oppose them.

Joe Biden could deschedule marijuana today if he wanted to. He hasn't yet.

The Democrats could nuke the filibuster and push a new voter's rights act through congress today if they wanted to. They won't.

You can only assume from their actions that they're fine with the Republican status quo.

Dems are captured opposition for the most part. They have had many opportunities to actually do something meaningful and they always compromise with themselves before they even get started.

she claimed to support that, but she never actually endorsed any bill or anything that would have increased az min wage until after it was signed into law.

You already know the answer to that.

There's a reason I can say "ACAB" without any problems even if they're more constrained than the American ones. And if the pearl clutchers start whining, I've got stories and voices for the stories, and ones a lot closer to them than they ever like to admit.
