There are more examples of good attempts at changing the status quo, but go on.

Damn, i wonder why the story about rich bastards destroying entire kingdoms for their own benefit doesn’t show said bastards doing jolly stuff for the masses lr abolishing the status quo that benefits them.

The naive attempt to improve society somewhat involves conquering an entire city, changing it’s laws inmediately, and then leaving inmediately. Maybe i’m misremembering but Martin said that plotline was inspired by the US involvement in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Nah, it won’t happen.

First off, there are two parties in the government: Podemos, a succdem party with a GREAT Equality minister (who has been fighting several years for trans rights) and the PSOE, the Labour Party of Spain. They were about to pass a law almost equal to the current one 4 years ago, but then elections happened, they needed to form a government with Podemos, and they had to hand over the ministry.

So now they are terfs. Yes, seriously. Several prominent politicians from said party have been doing everything they can to either block the law, make it worse (less protection for trans illegal migrants) or spew nonsense on twitter. All because they lost a power struggle (or won by a less huge margin than they hoped).

Also, saying anything good about Scotland at all might be wings to the catalonian independentist movement. It wouldn’t actually, but due to reasons i’m not going to get into, the spanish conservatives and fascists have been particularly jumpy these past months regarding catalonian independence, so the government give them more ammo.

TLDR: best you can hope for is a supporting tweet by the Equality minister that mentions trans people but not Scotland specifically

Fascists can be very good at finding cool nicknames. In spain they nicknamed the conservative radio host (our rush limbaugh) Federico Jimenez Losantos, Pfizerico Jeringuez (like a flu shot) Losmato (i kill them). Because he supported vaccination for covid.

I’m sorry to report it sucks. Althought maybe that’s just me.

I’m not even talking about ideological reasons regarding how it depicted the soviet union, i just found it boring and the cute anime girl (i’ll give them that, she is very cute) was barely worth it.

This is about the anime, no idea about the light novel.

For babies born during coronavirus. Definitely a fancy word that the youngsters use and will be used in the future. Not like those silly non-binaries.

Spain too, the similar organisation will accept words that ABSOLUTELY NO ONE USES like “coronababy” (wtf) and then not accept the -e termination as a neutral suffix for non-binary people or plurals.
