D'ailleurs, au sein de la #méritocracie que serait notre #DémocratieCapitaliste, qui ignore encore et toujours le #sexisme et le #patriarcat qui la fondent, toute adaptation à ces #corps différents est immédiatement considérée comme une énorme injustice, une #discrimination et une marque d' #inéquité envers les corps masculins normaux du standard de base pour lequel le monde du travail a été conçu. Il faut donc absolument noyer la spécificité de l'adaptation dans une pseudo-généralisation.

Я сподіваюся, що прийняти іммігрантів є одним із варіантів і що ми не закінчимо, як Японія.

Meanwhile, after a #Trump White House push to #police #homelessness, the #DOJ released guidance that lowered the barrier to #institutionalizing any person with a #disability.
Taken together, the actions signal a worrying return to a reality where people with #disabilities are pushed to the margins of society, advocates said.

This is long overdue, and a welcome change to have convictions in Ireland under a Victorian law for sexual activity between men *disregarded* rather than *pardoned* as was an earlier legislative proposal.
Still, the proposed statutory requirement that people apply, prompting a "review" seems overly bureaucratic - why not disregard all such convictions under the 1861 law?

Meanwhile, I trust that transparency, access, and deletion of the files kept by An Garda Síochána on hundreds of gay men in Dublin - which, as far as anyone knows, are retained *to this day* - will soon follow.
This by Shamim Malekmian in @dublininquirer@mastodon.ie from 2022:
"Forty years ago gardaí interviewed hundreds of gay men while searching for a killer - and they still have all the files"
