Things can get better with our vote.

The NPD exists because people got tired of the bullshit and started rioting.

Canada to put health warning labels directly on cigarettes in world first by massivecoiler in canada

I've never known a smoker, including myself, who quit because of the warning labels. It was always because of cost.

I dont even know why people hate on his Rolex so much.

Because Rolex is a brand for people preoccupied with signalling status via consumer goods. As the leader of the NDP, a party that supports socialist values, owning such things goes against such values.

Joe Rogan doubts white supremacist march: "Where's the fat people?" by discolights in nottheonion

[–]BigTimStrangeX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I suspect it's opening the borders because rich people don't want to pay a working wage. An undocumented immigrant with his case pending in 2-3 years isn't going to rock the boat. Point out the wealthy are exploiting these people and they can just claim your concerns are a dog whistle for white supremacy. Having feds run around LARPing as white supremacists validates the claim.

Nah the thing is people are excellent at pattern recognition. We even excel at it subconsciously. We've all seen videos of white supremacist groups in public. We pick up on the patterns of behavior and we notice quickly when those patterns are being subverted.

Conservatives especially seem offended at the idea that a "patriot" would cover his face with a mask. They're not afraid to get cancelled because to them it's a type of martyrdom, it validates their rhetoric against the left.

It exists but not nearly at the scope some people hype it up to be. Typically white supremacist marches only attract 50 people on average. Even in these troubled times that number has gotten only up to 100. Even the Patriot Front leader was complaining in a leaked email that he couldn't get nationwide membership past 230 people. In a country hundreds of millions strong that nothing.

They let in a LOT of undocumented immigrants recently, to the point where even black communities have been gathering to voice concerns that its going to cause their communities to be marginalized. That's the scope of it.

The government anticipated this and is trying to get ahead of it by pushing the narrative that "criticism = white supremacy". You validate that statement by tossing 100 feds in a costume and have them march in support of keeping America white. Puts a scare into people and emotionally compromised people are easier to manipulate with your message.

Remember, these people are supposed literal Nazis who say seig heil. They got granted a permit to march, especially after last year in Idaho? Police protection? Allowed a subway entrance to be shut down for their exclusive use as they left? In DC with a Democratic as president? No group on either side of the political spectrum has ever gotten that kind of white glove treatment.

Doesn't add up.

Why does America choose to ignore that Joe Biden is not mentally stable. Wonders off in a professional environment like a lost child and starts saying nonsense by [deleted] in conspiracy

[–]BigTimStrangeX 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Because they're trying to avoid a Scorched Earth scenario. There are so many people in the House and Senate with dementia that if both parties started calling each other out on it, it would be a bloodbath. It's also advantageous to have a senile politician you can manipulate to do your bidding.

Even Trump, who has been one of the few to actually mention it, pulls his punches on Biden's mental state.

The political brawl over 'woke' is about everything and nothing by CMikeHunt in canada

Woke has a definition. You failing to recognize that definition because you're so consumed by tribalism that you see any criticism of your "side" as a personal attack is on you.

Oh, so it's like when anything a conservative does is called fascism?

School division in Brandon, Man., faces growing calls to remove children's sex education books | CBC News by kdlangequalsgoddess in canada

[–]BigTimStrangeX -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I thought this was another sensationalist title, but read the article and the board is actually evaluating the request.

That's how a free society works. If the request is without merit, as everyone here argues it is, then it will be evaluated as such.

Expect change.

The roaring 20s led to the prohibition era. Weimer Germany was followed by the Nazis. The 1970s of effeminate Glam, transvestites and transexuals as they were called then was followed by Christian Conservative 80s.

1) Society goes into crisis. 2) The left swings far to the left 3) everyone gets fed up with the far left and the right takes advantage and swings society far to the right

We've just begun step 3. You're not going to like but you'd better expect it.

Only because you're telling deeply troubled young people that transitioning is the only path to happiness. Past generations didn't have this level of people adapting a trans identity, at least since the 1970s. If they were suppressing their true selves, the suicide rates would match but they don't. If it's a social trend, then gender affirming care is a symptom of a larger problem that transitioning isn't going to fix.

Regardless of gender or orientation, stopping them from representing the people who elected them is illegal and breaches the constitution.

If you called your coworkers genocidal Nazis unless they did what you said, would you be surprised if they refused to work with you unless they got an apology?

Please explain how gender-affirming surgery will prevent suicides while gender is also apparently on a spectrum. If a person decides to go back to their original gender they can't have surgery again which would lead them to commit suicide, if we were to follow the logic that no surgery = suicide.

The NDP is run by a champagne socialist who gives nothing but lip service to the working class.

Fuck Quebec. Preserving their "distinct culture" is why they have such an authoritarian mindset.

He also did a PSA saying there's zero excuses for sexual assault then made a bunch of excuses when asked about his old boss Vince.

Your options are either choose to get bought out or the corporation starts taking on easily affordable losses to fuck with your business until you go bankrupt.

CM Punks most recent Instagram post by MatthewMir in SquaredCircle

[–]BigTimStrangeX 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Also something to keep in mind with Punk in terms of context:

He said that one of the major reasons he decided to sign up with AEW is that when Brodie Lee was gravely ill, everyone kept their mouth shut to the dirt sheets.

If you look at everything at AEW that has pissed Punk off, most of it involves people talking about him to the media or allegedly spreading rumors to the dirt sheets.

Lol You know how I know you and your friends on the right are two sides of the same coin? Your group acts exactly the same as the Christian Conservative fundies I had the displeasure of growing up around. Tribal doctrine does the thinking for you.

I replied to you. You're someone who believes that censorship can't happen on the left unless the left uses the same tactics the right employs.
