Right-Wing Trolls Are Freaking Out After Learning They Can Get Sued For Calling People 'Groomers' On The Internet

even contemplating leaving Canada for good.

Hello, yes, LGBT person stuck in Texas here. Can I have their house please? I don't really like the cold, but if it means I don't have to feel scared about coming out of the closet then I could deal with it.

How can the government just overstep on Canadians' first amendment rights? Don't they know what the US founding fathers stood for? The right of Canadians to say whatever they want to whomever they want without fear of any consequences!!!1!

Other right-wing accounts variously reacted by describing the move as Orwellian, lamenting the death of free speech and even contemplating leaving Canada for good. Some rejected the authority of the court altogether while others questioned if the judge herself had "something to hide."

Funny how they think free speech is dead. I'm sure the there's a pretty decent overlap between these idiots and the people standing in front of Town Halls and region headquarters whining about vaccines, kickdowns, and Trudeau with 0 repercussions.

These dumb fucks need to stop crying about "free speech" and start crying about what it is they really want - the ability to be degenerates and knuckle draggers without any repercussions.

I openly invite all these morons to leave Canada for good. We don't want them. Nobody wants them. Go! Move to Antarctica where maybe the penguins will put up with your dipshittery. Maybe we can set up a GoFundMe to help them afford the travel cost out of here.

This is Canada, they have different laws around protected free speech. People don't realize that the US is basically the only country that has these super broad free speech laws written into the constition.

Good. Every time they bs without evidence, it: Destroys the credibility of legitimate claims & can cause serious reputation and mental harm to the accused. Should be criminal

lamenting the death of free speech

Its amazing how ignorant they are to the fact it’s always* been like this

* since the Bill of Rights

They used to have a much better grasp on this sort of thing. "Is so-and-so a groomer? I don't know, but people have been saying. I'm just asking questions..." and so forth. Couching your bs accusations in uncertain language to protect you from the libel lawsuit you clearly deserve. I guess it's good they seem to be forgetting about that tool more frequently.

Gotta love Canadians that think they are ruled by American laws. Every Canadian should know slander and libel laws here are much more restrictive on speech.

They were just exercising their right to Manitoba.

they should all move to Russia, where they will be much more free to say what they like about groomers

They can freak out all they like. Often someone who is trans will be called a groomer for no reason.

Is there anywhere in tge world that isnt infected by fascism?

They can go back to America where they'll be left destitute and homeless by their many fascist institutions (all of which they supported)

Anyone upset at being called a groomer is likely guilty of it

Please don’t take the bait!!!!

This is left wing bait so that you support a privacy destroying censorship bill.

It’s the same as “won’t somebody please think of the children”

I’m all for pride and everything, but this is political bullshite to try and convince you that you don’t need privacy online.

DON’T TAKE THE BAIT!
