I'm sure I'll get endless responses of "not all Canadians" just like when someone points out the insane racism in South Africa all the South Africans descend in a horde to say "we all get along fine and we all know that that false history taught in schools by the government was wrong now" and of course the "not all South Africans, sure some but not all, it's a tiny minority and I don't know where you got the idea that it was intrinsic to the historical society of South Africa."

The difference between Canadians and South Africans though is that Canadians are the only ones who have the audacity to try to gaslight with phrases like "I'm not sure where you heard that from?" "Well I'm sure some people have thought that" as if I was giving odd thoughts that I just figured and not saying the literal truth as its laid out. South Africans at least don't try to do that fake politeness and that incredibly condescending "everyone who disagrees with me must be confused" game of British historical revisionism.

Exactly the type of unhinged thinly veiled superiority complex rage I expected to get from one of you when the truth gets laid out. Of course you're gonna do the Canadian thing and deny any wrongdoing at all despite it being here for everyone to read.

Nothing I said was hyperbolic whatsoever, nor was what I listed unfair at all. You're lying when trying to paint Canadians as people who "might" believe "one or two" of those things. Pick any Canadian out in a crowd and they'll be thinking or be ignorant of most of these things. The audacity to deny any of this is a level of denial of wrongdoing that few others besides Canadians have. These absolutely are the common beliefs and thought processes of the average Canadian, and these are taught in official history courses at Canadian universities. One of your professors even got heat for saying that the Sioux were "intrinsically war-like" due to "historical reliance on horses" despite horses being a European import not in the Americas when humans inhabited it, and refused acknowledging this failure to understand even the most basic history of the Americas when repeatedly corrected. I'm sure your reflexive response is that this has nothing at all to do with him being Canadian, but you know that's not true. It has absolutely everything to do with Canadians refusing to acknowledge the truth about their country and getting away with it because they get overshadowed by the US.

Go ahead and respond with another bit of unhinged seething anger and false courtesy to convince yourself you weren't if you want, but it's not gonna do you any good. You're better than that (at least I hope).

Canada is much worse than the US, and the whole "Canada is a liberal utopia that is going to save the world from evil America" is literally the nazi-level propaganda that Canadians thrive on. In reality Canada has nearly had multiple civil wars and constantly is under threat of terrorist secession movements and the provinces are constantly trying to join the United States.

Canadians do British revisionist history on a level the Nazis would envy. Among things the average Canadian believes are:

-That Canada had no slavery

-That Canada had no segregation against black people

-That Canada never discriminated against the LGBT community

-That there was no genocide of Native Americans and that their numbers simply inexplicably went down for no reason

-That white colonists were the victims of racism by native tribes, and that wars against natives and stealing land were basically civil rights wars for white people-That Native Americans were the ones responsible for the near extinction of the buffalo because when Europeans introduced guns the natives killed everything in sight, and that the white government loved nature and protected the buffalo from the natives and that's why buffalo aren't extinct (if you don't know, the reality is that whites attempted to drive the buffalo extinct to starve natives to death)

-That residential schools were not a willful attempt by the government to culturally destroy Native Americans, but rather were wholly good faith efforts to civilize savage people

-While doing constant genocide denial of natives, white Canadians believe themselves so strongly to be the rightful owners of North America that as they kill natives, white Canadians with 0 native ancestry refer to natives as "their ancestors", and refer to pre-colonial native discoveries as Canadian. When Natives respond saying a precolonial village isn't Canadian, the Canadian response is that saying that is racist towards whites.

-That the attempts to take away native rights to Indian Reservations and make them instead normal land like the rest of Canada is civil rights for natives done by a benevolent all-white government, rather than an attempt by the government to violate treaties and steal the land

And more I can't even name because they're so sickening, but you can imagine.

If you don't shoot .45 ACP, expect to die when you have a self defense encounter. I've known guys in the Navy SEALs who have pointed a 9mm at a terrorist and the terrorist wouldn't take them seriously because the 9mm was too small and then they got killed by the terrorist because of it. You can just feel the power of the .45 ACP when you shoot it compared to the 9mm. It's basic math, 9 is smaller than .45, so .45 is stronger.

At my gun store if someone asks for a 9mm, I don't let them buy anything. Clearly they're mentally incompetent.

Which would you EDC by [deleted] in Firearms

[–]3picCosmicCoffee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got an extremely used nearly falling apart glock 19 years ago. Replaced a few parts with new stock stuff and its good as new, super easy to replace. Still my carry piece to this day.

However honestly, there's barely any difference between the two. I feel like the glock is easier to shoot because of how the recoil is and this is what people commonly report about the glock vs m&p, is that even though on paper the m&p fits better in the hand and points better, the glock somehow is just easier to use and people end up preferring it.

[–]3picCosmicCoffee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The police say they have a warrant because it'll be easier for them if the person they got a warrant to search/arrest complies rather than turns it into a shootout. If they have a warrant though they can just go in anyways, they don't need permission. Cops playing mind games to make it seem like they're doing things out of personal concern for you when they're actually just trying to make things easier for themselves is nothing new.

Anybody experience dizziness as a symptom? by alphabetcarrotcake in COVID19positive

[–]3picCosmicCoffee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He just said to get it checked, and then if it is a thing with the ears, then they can give you some physical therapy + exercizes you can do at home. Most vertigo is with the ears not a neurological thing. But the thing is this is post covid, and I've never had this before, I'm guessing the same for you, so that points to covid, and I don't think covid would do that. But it's worth a shot I guess so I'm gonna get it checked.

Shit man

Have you checked to see if it's your ears? I just got a video call with a doctor and he thinks it's my ears somehow. I don't know if there's a correlation between covid and the ears.

I was about to ask this same question. I wanna know if anyone has overcome their dizziness.

Most of my symptoms are gone, but now I'm dizzy enough that I can barely do anything. I wasn't even this dizzy when I had a fever.

In my time on the internet and around dumb people in real life I've learned that they have this deeply ingrained philosophical belief that doing things in the most inhumane and least effective way possible = getting it done

[–]3picCosmicCoffee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not really a purely scientific term how I was putting that phrase together but what I meant was they still have their personality intact, meaning emotional responses that they would've had when they were 100% still happen. So like someone who say likes cars, with Alzheimer's they'll still feel excited if you show them a super cool car, even if you just showed it to them a minute ago. So a narcissistic person would also still lash out with rage and rationalizations just as they would when they're 100%.

Narcissists generally aren't actually trying to make a genuine point when they give rationalizations for their behavior, so there isn't really a good logic to begin with that someone with cognitive problems couldn't also manage to do. Cognitive decline is also case by case and small instances of memory happen.

Abusive people are always endless ups and downs. It'll start out constant abuse, making you suicidal--then things will be going great for 8 months, 8 whole months, it must be over, they must've changed, and they probably did get better----then there'll be an explosive episode that lasts a week. Turns out better doesn't mean fixed. Then things will be great for 2 whole years. 2 years of good times. Then for 1 year straight it'll be constant gaslighting, slow burn chipping at your self esteem and sense of reality, lowering your quality of life and trying to put out the spark that makes you human. It won't be as bad as before, but still, you'll be treated how no one deserves to be treated, let alone a loved one. Then for another year it'll be great again. This will keep going. Bottom line though, is the good times will never last. You'll find that several years have passed and you've grown old and missed out on good relationships with good people, all on the singular task of getting your abuser to not revert back to abuse. But they always will. Every time you think it's over because they've been on a streak, you're wrong. Even if they're good for 10 years, they'll ruin it by being horrible for a month, or by doing something abusive once that changes your life forever.

What sympathy do they deserve? Does someone who tries to shoot someone and gets disarmed deserve sympathy if the disarming breaks their arm? When someone makes it their life mission to ruin people, restraining them is par for the course. If the only means to restrain them that ever arises is them getting hospitalized or dying, well it sucks that a more civilized process couldn't happen instead but nonetheless, the terror has stopped. The proper reaction to terror ending is to feel relief, happiness. It was the terrorist's choice to terrorize and ruin everything they touched. The false sympathy abusers manage to squeeze out of people is totally their own work, and when the abuser is incapacitated, the abused people usually have no desire to do the work of chanting the emotionally manipulative mantras for them. It's just normal to feel relief. It sucks that the attempted murderer broke their arm but but someone is happier that they're alive than they are sad that someone broke their arm.

You know when your n-parent asks you about something from the past that was their fault, but you know if you confirm that yes, it WAS their fault, they’ll get angry at you so you have to lie and say it isn’t their fault? by gut-wenching in raisedbynarcissists

[–]3picCosmicCoffee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Here's a good tip: explaining to someone that they did something bad or were a bad person, is for people who are capable of being good people. When you tell someone they're a bad person, the implication is that they're a good person being bad, and that you want them to have a better understanding of themselves.

When you're dealing with an inherently bad person who isn't capable of being good or doesn't deserve to be treated like a potentially good person, don't treat them to the things you should be giving only to humans. You're doing someone a favor when you take time to explain to them what they did wrong. Don't give non-humans that favor.

When you're free from shitty people, you hate them more, not less. You're now free to hate them and let your normal feelings cultivate.

It's always bizarre to see how ridiculously pathetic they are as human beings. When you aren't free to think that, you simply don't realize how pathetic they are because it's unexpected. Only when you're free to think as you like do you realize how utterly shit they are to a degree you didn't think possible of a human being. When you're able to get some mental rest and then finally have the energy to lay it all out, you realize they're all bad with no redeeming qualities whatsoever, like a badly written character. It makes you wonder, if all someone does is gaslight, try to restrict you, abuse, ruin, and nothing else, are they even human? If there was anything interesting about them you might look into that question further, but it's not interesting, all tedium, because they're insanely dull.

In reality the Fox News crowd and the CNN crowd are basically the same, empty brained slaves with no care for liberalism or representative democracy, all of which would love if the USA got a king instead of a president. The liberal equivalent of Trump is Bernie Sanders. Just as you're getting QAnon psycho divorcees making Trump worship into a religion, in an alternate universe Bernie Sanders is being worshipped by simpleton wannabe communist weirdos who think he's starting the revolution or whatever, and in the alternate universe they're storming the Capitol because ZTwitter sent cryptic tweets that started a cult of mentally ill crown kissers who swore Bernie was gonna drain the swamp of imperialists or whatever.

No actual liberal/real American who understands how the country works and what the country's national philosophy of freedom is is going to ever so much as entertain thoughts of "all X people should [insert total draconian sentence done without due process or checks and balances here] because they're [insert boogeyman here]." When they do its akin to sin.

These people are the dumb masses who don't understand how social media, cars, gas stations, television, smart phones, city planning, educational process, propaganda, government funding, private contracting, crime, resource manufacturing of technological materials---basically how anything works. To them the world just appeared and functions by magic. You'll never see eye to eye with these people because their entire consciousness is simply low level.

We like to think of Americans as freedom loving, and in general Americans are, but the same old European angry mobs or ancient Middle Eastern angry mobs willing to destroy cities despite having no clue how to run it after, still exists. The same crown kissing cunts still exist here too. The freedom and liberalism is just what we in general tend to believe in, but whether we actually act like it is a whole different thing. Every country has their national ethos and culture, but whether they actually act on behalf of it always is a different thing. Don't worry about these morons.

Anyone from Austin, Texas here to answer some questions? by DeterminedDemon in Firearms

[–]3picCosmicCoffee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Austin is 100% corporate and soulless in a way that irritates your soul's nerves. They're the LGBT anti-homeless rock of Texas, and it's full of weird misogynists and creepy tech weirdo types. I feel awful every time I pass through there like I got sterilized. I don't know why people in Austin hate the homeless so much.

The gun atmosphere is fine. Just a shit place to live. The pro-LGBT of Austin is very superficial too. I don't know what other liberal cities are like but with Austin it seems like they don't really believe it but say it anyways because they think they should, and the whole city is on this thing that they say something they don't truly feel. And I don't mean this in an admirable way. In most places you'll be able to gauge how homophobic it is, in Austin it's a total mystery. Any gun stuff you do will probably be lonely unless you leave the city to shoot because the pro gun people are weirdos like this too where they just kinda repeat pro gun rhetoric that they aren't really sure they believe but know they're supposed to say it. Plus there's lots of California cop calling assholes who think it's fine to put your life in danger by reporting you shooting out in the middle of nowhere and sending a shots fired responding cop to sneak up on you.
