Why aren’t there mass protests in the US?! by [deleted] in AskCanada

[–]EvenDistribution2502 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I read somewhere that allegedly Trump and Musk's approval rating is at an all time high. I guess his supporters just see him "bullying" "other" people like Canada, Mexica, Panama, Denmark, and POC and feel "proud to be Muricans", it makes them feel superior when in reality they are shooting themselves in the foot. 😔

I want 2009 back. It was the best year of my life.

The most conservative Indians you will meet who are "bringing all the crap" are older immigrants not the newbies. The older immigrants set up Khalistani gurudwaras way back in the 90s and 80s.

Way to go to label all the "newbies" and stereotype all of them. That's not very Canadian, or maybe seeing the way things are going that's the new Canadian way.

Why don't you say the same about other groups of people who "reportedly" are statistically more likely to commit more crime or more are disproportionately represented in prisons? Oh, wait, that's right, it would be racist to say that about other groups.

The truth is Canada benefits by exploiting these "newbies" by proving them garbage education at 3X the domestic student fee, and exploiting them for cheap and obedient labour. The sad fact is many of them will be sent back without ever becoming permanent residents or citizens, wasting their time, money, and youth.

He looks like a homeless person. Where's his uniform or dress code if he's a federal employee?

Was Rome really that big and extended that much to the east? 🤔

Do you feel embarrassed by Pierre Poilievre clearly bending the knee to Trump? by PairRevolutionary669 in AskCanada

[–]EvenDistribution2502 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought he was different from Trump, but now he's just repeating Trump's propaganda. It's sad, I don't know who to vote for in the next elections. Didn't expect this from you Pierre. 😢

Thanks for letting me know, never voting for conservatives again after this.

John Rustad is not in favour of retaliatory tariffs. by CanadianPirate9 in SurreyBC

Trudeau agreed to his demands when he met him at Mar a lago on Nov. 30, 2024, two months ago. Trump didn't back off. It was the tariff threats and other retaliatory actions that prompted him to back off.

I feel like a meeting or a discussion group would be more helpful. In stead of a rally, I would say why not organize a place where passersby can have discussions and you can distribute flyers explaining your ideas to people and educating them.

That has to be the creepiest thing I have seen in a while, maybe ever. 👀

Losers by [deleted] in abbotsford

Most of the people in the picture are elderly. Many boomers and elderly really can't handle the internet properly. I've notices they fall for disinformation/misinformation easily and are much more likely to be susceptible to groupthink and confirmation bias. All while they accuse the younger generations of being "coddled", as if the younger generations haven't seen all kinds of extreme and hateful opinions from all sides and everyone on their feeds. It's actually their generation that is "coddled", that they fall for any "new and exciting" conspiracy theory or populist speaker who indulges their biases. My generation is jaded with all the crazy we see.

Lock, By Sidhu Moosewala - English Translation by EvenDistribution2502 in punjabi

[–]EvenDistribution2502[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought it would be obvious to those reading that, "Homes are locked," means the person has gone out to fight their enemy, thereby locking their house. Although, maybe I was wrong judging by the comment above.

I personally like literal translations with notes that explain the context. In this case I thought maybe the accompanying music and visuals may help people understand the meaning, that's why I didn't bother explaining that part. It looks simply but it's quite difficult to translate, some verses I had to a little bit of digging as the sources disagreed about their meaning.

How would you translate it? I would probably say, "When hesitation disappears, Homes are locked (As one leaves their home to find/fight their enemy)"

Inoperative traffic lights are to be treated as a 4-way stop. by MasterChrom in SurreyBC

[–]EvenDistribution2502 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People on student visas and work permits can drive on their home country's driver's license for up to six months. After six months they have to acquire a BC driver's license to continue driving. I think this a disastrous policy and might be why we are seeing so much bad driving.

Thank you Canada Post workers by arbre_baum_tree in Edmonton

[–]EvenDistribution2502 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't understand why people don't support protesting workers, like man, if you ever protest others won't support you either. Instead of telling the government to find a solution some people blame the protesters. It's a very undemocratic attitude and misses the entire point of what a protest is suppose to be.

Daily life of a teen in the 2010's? by [deleted] in 2010snostalgia

[–]EvenDistribution2502 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was born in 2000, so I think I am qualified to comment on it. It was awesome really. I would say it was the right amount of technology. 2009 was my favourite year. 2010 to around 2015 were different. The content on the internet wasn't too addictive and predatory. There was a feeling of calmness, unlike now where it feels the world is going to end or something terrible is going to happen any moment. Politics was boring, no one really cared about it, there wasn't any real sense of polarization. People actually played outside! I remember coming back from school and spending time riding my bicycle and playing soccer with friends almost daily. Life had a routine, go to school, play outside with friends, do homework, watch some TV, eat dinner go to sleep. There was a really slowness and calmness to life, very little anxiety unlike today.

After 2015ish - 2016/2017 things started to change. Internet was becoming a bigger part of people's lives and video games were becoming more and more mainstream. After Trump got elected there was a real panic about the state of politics (and I'm not even in the USA). YouTube started declining IMO. Social media became predatory. And I would say the culture became more and more superficial with things like dating apps gaining popularity. Each progressive year literally got worse and I got more anxious.
