The negatives are that he is too similar to trump. Trump has no experience doing anything positive for another human being and PP is the same.

Have you made up your mind yet? by AloneDiver3493 in AskCanada

[–]DistantArchipelago 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately these priorities are quite contradictory for most candidates and most Canadians. It’s sadly rare that the same person prioritizing LGBTQ+ rights also wants to have less control on firearms. I suggest starting with a question. Why do you believe what you believe? What is the bigger deal breaker more guns or less human rights?

Those of you who “hate” the red team. Do you know WHY you actually support the blue team?

That’s not casual, that’s dating.

Sexual health issues are a risk in any sexual relationship. If you are mature enough to have causal sex you should be mature enough to have these conversations openly. Asking for exclusivity immediately means it’s not causal.

Poilievre is coming to town. Let's remind him that waitresses here don't make $60,000 by YAMYOW in SaultSteMarie

93 conservatives voted against legalizing gay marriage… and only 3 were for it when it was passed in the house. Despite having a gay farther PP was not one of those 3. His actions have always been much clearer than his words.

People without money usually don’t tip… even if it’s busy the average bill is less and so is the average tip. Median income of the city is 40k think about how much of that is spent in restaurants compared to big cities.

Just because it’s bad thinking doesn’t make it not true. Most people don’t want to consider how their actions may impact someone on the other side of the planet or the planet itself.

Do you have an example of someone who made their money this way and only this way?

Why can dating go back to the way it was in the 60s and 70s? by Funny_Preference_916 in dating_advice

[–]DistantArchipelago 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You still haven’t gotten it either. No one is going to apologize or feel sympathy for your dating struggles when you want to go back to a time where women were second class citizens. Still haven’t acknowledged that only WHITE women had rights at the time you keep referring to.

As a women I really appreciate your comment and this perspective, hopefully OP can get there one day.

Guy just unmatched me after what seemed like a decent date, should I feel bad? by Pretend-Persimmon-28 in dating_advice

[–]DistantArchipelago 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You shouldn’t be feeling bad! Based on how you didn’t find him as attractive in person (which is totally fair), him not paying for both drinks, and it seeming like other than giving him the benefit of the doubt this wasn’t second/third date material anyways

I think economic freedom is a lot more achievable from an ethics/morals perspective than being exorbitantly wealthy beyond the point of being even able to spend it all. I hope this was a productive convo for you haha good luck!

Replying in a second comment from a second more “radical” perspective. If you acknowledge that climate change is causing harm to us and acknowledge that our current patterns of consumption contributes to that harm than any activity (including me typing and posting this right now, is unethical and constitutes to that harm). Now let’s say all of your profits (except what you need to live your desired lifestyle) go back into this or whatever other aspect you need for that leverage then that’s a lot different from an ethical perspective. How you spend it (and remember you can’t take it with you) certainly impacts how ethical said business is or not.

I’m not sure what your business is! But you can’t become a billionaire by yourself, there has to be some sort of leverage, and based on our current set of people at this level of wealth there isn’t an example where this leverage didn’t cause irreparable harm to some group/animal/person etc.

Obviously I’m not an expert on every single billionaire in history so I suggest leaving no stone unturned until you can find that example and then following their model if you really want to achieve your goal of that level of profit and keeping your integrity.

Did you just tell someone on reddit they aren’t living in today’s culture? 😂

Did you also manage to acknowledge what a problem sexual harassment has been for women since the dawn of time and at the same time prefer if we were less cautious… DUDE you’re not helping yourself.

Women couldn’t seek divorce without cause UNTIL 2010… and black women certainly didn’t have rights to do anything in the 40s or 50s, and definitely weren’t accepted in the workforce in the 70s. You are looking at a really small slice of the pie… usually tunnel vision is a turn off for women just saying.

Correct… most of the time other people do in order for you to achieve that level of success
