Time to input Jordan Peterson, Preston Manning, Kevin O'Leary, Elon Musk in the form just for fun?

Spamming Marco Rubio’s name would be nice.

[–] adespoton@lemmy.ca 18 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Marco Rubio isn’t Canadian… but Ted Cruz is, and I’m sure he’s got an honorary doctorate in something….

Anti-Civil Engineering for helping to ensure that the Texas power grid falls to ruin?

You gotta make it believable or it will just get filtered out by AI.

[–] Luci@lemmy.ca 12 points 4 days ago (2 children)

Yep! Instead report actual doctors who are posting rightwing propaganda and anti-trans sentiment so the filters approve your submission

[–] rxbudian@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 days ago

Isn't Rand Paul a doctor?

[–] KMAMURI@lemmy.world 9 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

Anti Vax and COVID deniers as well. Addresses and phone numbers of doctors offices are public knowledge as well. Fill it in real good.

[–] RBWells@lemmy.world 22 points 4 days ago (1 children)

So, circumcision then? Get to it, boys! Report away.

[–] SplashJackson@lemmy.ca 6 points 4 days ago

Mutilation is mutilation

[–] AceFuzzLord@lemm.ee 22 points 4 days ago (1 children)

God they're so dumb. They keep uploading snitch sites that will be filled up with people sending fake reports, memes, etcetera.

[–] Auzy@aussie.zone 8 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Won't stop them from saying they've got 10000 submissions already

[–] AceFuzzLord@lemm.ee 4 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Yes, but it would at least clog up their submissions, slowing down any submissions using this as intended as they go through every request or have an AI do an even worse job.

[–] Auzy@aussie.zone 3 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Absolutely agree. Best to use real sounding names too

[–] jbk@discuss.tchncs.de 14 points 4 days ago (1 children)

so what doctors (presumably openly anti-trans and/or pro-maga) do we spam there?

[–] arin@lemmy.world 10 points 4 days ago

All the ones who do circumcision.

[–] KMAMURI@lemmy.world 18 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago) (1 children)

Ooooh I wanna be on all the American lists. I wish I was a doctor. Sign me up. I hope our doctors wear this like a badge of honor. Publicise you've been added to the list. Encourage Americans to flee to obtain your services. Fuck the dictator.

And Canadians, prepare to defend these doctors with your lives should it come to that.

Yea I started hoarding old Styrofoam already.

[–] PandaParent@lemmy.ca 4 points 4 days ago (2 children)

I don’t understand that reference.

[–] InEnduringGrowStrong@sh.itjust.works 3 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Styrofoam dissolved in gasoline makes for a stickier, more gooey cocktail that sticks to surfaces.

Me? IDK, I just like how it looks, it reminds me of the snow.

[–] PandaParent@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 days ago

Good to know!

[–] NotSteve_@lemmy.ca 1 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

Styrofoam can be used to make thermite

Edit: and Molotov cocktails I believe

[–] KMAMURI@lemmy.world 1 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

We just bought two new appliances because the old ones died just before the tariff war. I have all the styrofoam packing material.

[–] Sunshine@lemmy.ca 18 points 4 days ago

The form field is titled "State/Province"

[–] Daryl@lemmy.ca 15 points 4 days ago

Wow. Free advertising and referral service, courtesy of the US Government.

"Hey, in Canada, if people want to have a little maple tree or a beaver in their pants, it's nobody's business but their own, eh. It's aboot the freedom to be yourself. So take off, eh, you American hosers!"

[–] Albbi@lemmy.ca 14 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Time to put every mohel on that list.

[–] KMAMURI@lemmy.world 2 points 4 days ago

Start with the COVID deniers.

[–] taiyang@lemmy.world 8 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I know in the US that bottom surgery generally doesn't happen under 18, and the same is true in Canada, no? It's always just for show, although I guess we can't assume anyone in the government actually pays attention to statistics.

[–] Sunshine@lemmy.ca 13 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago) (1 children)

Gender affirming surgeries are rare for teenagers and even if they do happen it's for 16 year olds and up with strong cases.

[–] funkless_eck@sh.itjust.works 3 points 4 days ago

and it's normally for gender affirming care for Cis folks. I.e. things to make AMAB folks appear more in line with stereotypical male appearances.
