Canada Outlaws Disagreeing With Women Online, California Soon to Follow

In a landmark move for gender equality, the Canadian government has passed legislation making it illegal to disagree with any woman, ever, on any online platform. Under the Believe All Women All The Time Act (BAWATT), men who dare to challenge a woman’s opinion or point out logical inconsistencies in her argument could face fines up to $50,000 and up to 12 months in prison, or, alternatively, being MAIDed.

“We believe that women have been oppressed for far too long by the patriarchal norm of expecting them to back up their claims with facts and logic,” said Prime Minister Justin Trudeau in a press conference announcing the new law. “From now on, anything a woman says online is sacrosanct and cannot be questioned under any circumstances.”

The law applies to all interactions between men and women on social media, online forums, and even private messaging apps. It also grants women the right to retroactively flag any comments made by men that they deem problematic or offensive, regardless of whether those comments were made before or after the passage of BAWATT.

Critics argue that the law is unconstitutional and violates free speech protections guaranteed by the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. However, Trudeau has dismissed these concerns, stating that “the Charter has historically only applied to men anyway, and this law is about empowering women, so it’s totally fine.”

The bill was quickly passed with overwhelming support from both the Liberal and NDP parties in parliament. Many conservatives opposed the measure, but were swiftly silenced by accusations of misogyny and calls for their MAIDing.

In the wake of Canada’s bold move, California Governor Gavin Newsom has expressed interest in introducing similar legislation in his state. “If it works for Canada, why not California?” he said in a recent interview. “We’re all about progress and equity here, and if that means silencing men who disagree with women like me, so be it.” He also recently unveiled his new pronouns – all of them.

“Those men have had their say, now it’s our turn,” said Newsom,

While the future of free speech in Canada and California remains uncertain, one thing is clear: it’s never been a better time to be a woman online. For everyone else, it might be wise to keep those opinions to yourself.
