I’ve struggled over the last year and half watching the genocide of Palestinians in realtime without any condemnation from Western governments nor our media. Israel’s confirmed war crimes and crimes against humanity are well documented yet they continue to kill innocent Palestinians, mostly women and children, with impunity. I want to see a free Palestine where Palestinians will self-govern and receive Canada’s recognition as an independent state with rights equal to the likes of Israel, Canada, etc. I feel the only path to Palestinian statehood is through a UN Peace Resolution.

As a member of the LGBTQ+ community, even the tamest most non-pornographic image or text I post is taken with great offense by homophobic and transphobic people who want to eradicate the presence of Queer people online. The mere existence of a Pride flag let alone Pride colors in any art or clothing causes such bigots it treat it as the same thing as pornography. My community has routinely been unjustly targeted by bigots, who often use porn bans as a means to justify the banning as non-pornographic content. As a result, I am heavily oppossed to any and all banning of sexual content, because banning sexual content never stops there, it always include non-sexual things. As such the fight to protect peoples' right to sexual expression is vital for protecting my right to exist.

Banning sexual content has always been a slippery slope. First it's anything outrightly explicit, but different people have different definitions of what sexual content is, and bans like this disproportionately harm the LGBTQ+ community because of it. The kind of people that fight against pornography for "family values" are the same kind of people who would label the very existence of someone like me as "explicit". Bans like this help no one and cause far more harm than good. And even if you don't agree with the existence of explicit content, why should payment processors have the right to dictate what we can and can't purchase? It's a direct violation of personal freedoms. No company should be allowed to decide where and what I use my own hard earned money to purchase.
