In the US, local, small farms don't have to. May be the same in Canada. Eggs are not washed in France at all, which is why they can be stored at room temperature. Washing removes the biofilm that protects against disease. It's done because it also removes pathogens on the outside and feces.

You're speaking about pasteurized eggs. In Canada too, those are the surest bet against any food-borne illness. But they are uncommon and mostly unnecessary. We have higher rates of salmonella than Canada. But it's still pretty unusual. Both countries wash the eggs so they have to be refrigerated.

It's middle class moralism, a version of politics that has little in common with actual Marxism. I associate it with middle class radicalism, in a political sense, which to me is the left spectrum of liberalism. But illiberal in that dissent and a struggle over ideas are anathema, suspect even.

You don't know what motivates all people. The statistics don't lie. Trans women retain male patterns of offending. There are rights to be balanced. We sex segregate because biological males primarily target biological women and are more capable and likely to do physical harm. It's that simple.
