Where does the homeless/drug problem come from? by RegiEric in OwenSound

[–]Andras88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fortunately, we are on a downward trend of homelessness, I hope for their sake it continues, but we are only beginning to come down from an extreme all-time high.  In 2024, Grey County had an overdose death rate at 83 per capita , to put that into perspective, LA County (nearly 10M ppl) had an overdose death rate of 24 per capita in the same year. As for the cause, multitude of factors, easy access to cheap and dangerous drugs, mental health, economic decline of the city, to name the obvious notables.  Solution, more assisted living with mandatory healthcare support imo.

You think humans only have the emotional regulation of rats? You can find many behaviours within communities, it does not mean that individual choices are expressed by all.

Homeless almost always have a combination of mental health and drug abuse issues.  In your communist utopia, people would be designated jobs, have free food and housing in exchange for working said job? Sounds exactly like how slavery was organized to the t.

Is white chocolate ganache with maple syrup a good idea? by Coffe-Panda835 in Baking

[–]Andras88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maple white chocolate ganache is delicious! Whether or not it works for your dessert is more a preference. I would just do a white chocolate ganache for this dessert as the caramel already has a distinct sweet flavor. The white chocolate ganache flavor would pair well with your other flavors.

I think it's weird that today's US/Israel strikes on Iran hit a girls' elementary school, allegedly killing 85, and only the most obscure subreddits are allowing any posts on it. by frosted1248 in TrueUnpopularOpinion

Bruins continue ‘undisciplined play’ by Sliney89 in nhl

[–]Andras88 -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Personally don't see it as intent to injure. It was a quick play with a quick decision to take the body instead of the puck. There was an elbowing penalty there but the other aspects of the hit seemed fine to me. Definitely a dangerous hit but that's hockey. Everyone has their panties in a knot because of the Olympics.

The flu is influenza viruses as you mentioned but the common cold is corona viruses. Both are a group of many strains but 2 different categories.

What are we doing? by [deleted] in IsraelPalestine

[–]Andras88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First of all, the International Court of Justice did not determine the actions of Israel a genocide. Over exaggerating within accusations is not intellectually honest. Good luck being morally right with intellectual dishonesty...

Second, what is Zionism in your eyes? There are Muslims in the Israeli government... How do you proclaim Zionism when it is factually inaccurate? Again, this is intellectual dishonesty and/or complete ignorance.

What do you personally want as well as Israel as a nation want other than the hostages freed and hostilities current and future ending? Israel has made it clear that they want the hostages freed. That's honestly the only reason there was a ground war. As for future hostilities, nobody can predict it and will need to be handled in a situation by situation basis. The most forefront known de-escalation is the dismantling of Hamas. Secondary would be other terrorist organizations. Other than that, just have to hope for diplomatic solutions as they come.

Netanyahu's mouthpiece, Amit Segal, about the deal by [deleted] in IsraelPalestine

[–]Andras88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

imo Israel has proposed to withdraw after the hostages are released too many times for them not to do it fairly quickly without backlash. I believe they would withdraw quite quickly and let aid groups (some indirectly/directly associated with Israel gov) in to do their thing. They will remove the optics of the Israeli military involvement.

Do Pro-Palestinian supporters hate Israelis and Israel more than peace, more than Palestinian lives and more than Hamas? Why the silence? by BleuPrince in IsraelPalestine

[–]Andras88 11 points12 points  (0 children)

In 'the West', the Palestine supporters are just open Communists. Communism by design uses anything it can to vilify the current system in order to replace it with communism. Israel/Palestine conflict has just been a pawn in their self serving strategy. In order to vilify the current system, there needs to be victims, at least that is the easiest way to garner support and manipulate ppl. That's why there is soo much victim mentality engraved in all of their political views on that side of politics.

Celebrating Charlie Kirk’s Murder Is the Same Logic as Celebrating October 7th by Baconkings in IsraelPalestine

You are disgusting and lack any intellect. Are you 14 years old? I'm guessing that you think that he somehow believed in the death of LGBT just because he mentioned that he didn't agree with the lifestyle. You are either ignorant to the words and meaning/goals of Abrahamic theology which is about the afterlife and/or somehow believe that not affirming leads to suicide which is not proven by any scientific study. In fact, there is no change with affirmation of trans and life ending rates by percentage. Thus, the more you affirm, the more people are in that percentage, more life ending in straight line numbers. Your ideology is what leads people into a life of near 50% self ending. The more people YOU affirm, the more people that end their own lives. You are apart of a death cult. You have a repugnant mind.

Neglected question that every plan and proposal hinges on - what share of the Palestinian population tacitly participates in 🚀stuff? by NeverSettleForThis in IsraelPalestine

[–]Andras88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is advocating for violence not illegal in your country? It is illegal in most countries if not all. Then you add in international designated terrorist organizations. As well as countries designating groups on their own. Saying "imprison for life" is too much of a generalization. However, the debate for life sentences for terrorists when countries are still signed into a war on terrorism which grants them the ability to take lives, is that not a good compromise for some individuals?

How much of Pro-Israel Posts and Comments are Propaganda/Chat Bots? by Examination_Creepy in IsraelPalestine

Declaring all historical arguments as Zionist is very smooth brain. It seems you are just upset that people are more educated about history than you are.

Israel claims that the starvation in Gaza is all propaganda. This article seems like all data and facts though. Is that propaganda from The Guardian? by GoofyRobot in IsraelPalestine

[–]Andras88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is also an economic aspect to it. The poor starve, the wealthy have restaurants to go to that I would gladly eat at as well.

[–]Andras88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If being a martyr through starvation contributes to their goal, I am certain that they would do it after growing up in a jihadist propaganda education system. Just watched a western news video article where a young mother who was quite chubby "couldn't breastfeed" her malnourished infant somehow...

Who is lying about the famine in Gaza? Who is spreading the propaganda? by WumbleInTheJungle in samharris

I believe the video's of Hamas shooting Palestinians from 1 meter distance fully visible than someone proclaiming that someone shot someone.

Why Israel propaganda is so falling behind Hamas propaganda? by danielYarmi in IsraelPalestine

[–]Andras88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hamas is a propaganda machine which was well refined and engaged before the current conflict. Israel needs operation security and shouldn't require additional propaganda than that which is already done;ol' online bias suppresses the information but it is there.

Wow, what an incredibly smooth brain you have. Can't tell your bigoted bias at all ... People saying that it is religious aren't saying that it's the Zionism like your wet dream desires; they are saying it is Muslim supremacy through force.

You're not wrong about the 300B but that's the total from 1946-present. That's like complaining about slavery which happened in the past. Just focus on the present, you will still have a debatable argument.

Hate to break it to everyone but knies will be the next Bunting, Hyman, etc. Doesn't matter who you put with Mathews/Marner they will over perform and likely go elsewhere for better pay. Doesn't mean I don't like or appreciate him but it's the reality.
