If you're going around telling marginalized people that their #rights are temporarily disposable, you really don't think they deserve rights at all.
That makes you a piece of shit.

@broadwaybabyto Your last sentence is telling on all of us, why should anyone 'give us' anything? It should not be in their remit. What it should be, is everyone's right. #Rights #Mastodon #Fediverse

The American dream is still alive and well … in Canada.
This is happening all the time now and the victims just don't report it. In her state, she'd have been able to file charges even if she was trans. Happily, she is suing. "Businesses have to train staff. When that doesn't happen, the business is liable for the harm caused." said senior staff attorney at Gender Justice, who is filing the suit.

Humans come in many different forms with different looks, preferences and beliefs but fundamentally, we are all human and therefore deserve the same rights, the same opportunities and the same respect. No one is more or less human than anyone else.
#International institutions were not designed to ensure universal #rights. They were designed to maintain the core-periphery hierarchies of the world system. If we want universal rights we have to create new #institutions through anti #imperialist & anti #racist struggle.

#US officials have repeatedly pointed to a speech given by #Trump during a visit to the #MiddleEast in May as an example of the new way Washington relates to the world, with an emphasis on *sovereignty* over *universal* #rights.
Speaking in Riyadh, #SaudiArabia, Trump criticized “Western interventionists … giving you lectures on how to live or how to govern your own affairs.”

Historic ruling finds climate change ‘imperils all forms of life’ and puts laggard nations on notice
"Climate change “imperils all forms of life” and countries must tackle the problem or face consequences under international law, the International Court of Justice (ICJ) has found."
"It will set a new baseline in terms what countries need to do to address climate change and opens up new avenues of recourse against high-emitting states not doing enough on climate change."

The problem with the idea that criminals should have no rights is that it quickly becomes people accused of becoming criminals should have no rights which become accusing people you do not want to have rights of being criminals.
Of course there are a lot of other problems with the idea #criminals should have no #rights.

Human rights are for everyone.
No, dignity is not conditional.
No, your worth is not decided by your gender, race, income, ability, identity, age, or beliefs.
No, justice should not be reserved for the privileged few.
No one is “less than.”
You are human. That alone is enough to deserve safety, respect, equality, and freedom.
Every person. Every place. Every time.

What's new re: #TrumpRegime's deportation efforts, unlike previous attempts:breadth & scale -transforms expulsions into a tool for INTL lev.
By deporting foreign nationals to often unstable 3ird Cs -creates exiles *little hope of returning to US or C of origin *uses these vulnerable pops as bargaining chips in a str of diplomatic & geopol deal making.

We're Publishing Our #ICE Reporting In #Spanish
We’ve been covering the technological infrastructure powering Trump’s mass #deportations for months by this point. We believe there is a high public interest in knowing what tech companies are working with #Immigrations and Customs Enforcement (ICE), what #surveillance capabilities are being used, and how those may contribute to a lack of due process.
