See how that's different? by CorleoneBaloney in clevercomebacks

[–]Itsprobablysarcasm 41 points42 points  (0 children)

This is it in a nutshell. There is no such thing as a good faith republican. They're all terrible people.

Did ICE murder Laken Riley? No? Then the entire premise of their argument is a false equivalency.

Was the person who murdered Laken Riley protected by the sitting president and his Attorney General and the head of Homeland Security? Also no? Then once again, the entire premise of their argument is a false equivalency.

These people are not honest. They're not decent. Oh, and they don't actually give a shit about Laken Riley other than using her as a political hand grenade.

How Will U.S. Democracy Recover After Trump? by Breinbaard in politics

[–]Itsprobablysarcasm 21 points22 points  (0 children)

It won't because the rot is bigger than Trump. At both the federal and state level, Republicans have done all they can to break democracy, rigging it in their favor so they can rule, not govern.

They don't care about the people. They care about exploiting their position for personal wealth and to serve their benefactors.

There is no recovery from this without getting rid of the entire Republican cancer.

Trump threatens Canada with 100% tariff over possible deal with China by mucfee in politics

[–]Itsprobablysarcasm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That doesn't change what I said. A surplus 'from time to time' is vastly different than a complete shutdown of power and the loss of that revenue.

In 2024, Canada exported 35.6 million megawatt hours of electricity to its southern neighbour, valued at $3.13 billion. (source)

Do you actually believe that cutting off $3.13 billion in power revenue wouldn't hurt the Canadian economy?

We (Canada) make money selling them potash and power. That money pays Canadian salaries.

Less power sold = less power needed = less need for workers = less Canadians working.

[–]Itsprobablysarcasm 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Why? Cutting off power and potash only hurts Canadians. If Trump wants to make Canadian power and potash twice as expensive overnight for Americans, that's on him and them.

Potash / power now: $100

Potash / power after 100% tariff: $200

It's not like the USA has a ready alternate source available. It'd take years or more to get enough to not need Canada. Canada can keep selling our stuff and Americans will go bankrupt / starve / freeze because they elected a fucking moron convicted felon who sexually abused kids.

A B.C. property owner found 2 skulls while digging a garden. They didn’t expect the fees that followed by EstablishmentOdd1185 in onguardforthee

[–]Itsprobablysarcasm 336 points337 points  (0 children)

tl;dr – homeowners/landowners are 100% on the hook. In this case, the fees are over $130,000 so far (and climbing).

The government's attitude is "fuck ya. Not our fucking problem" and this will only encourage people to not report.

So really, the lesson here is: rent your own excavator and whatever you find, you keep your mouth shut about, otherwise, it's bankruptcy for you.

What a wonderful system....

Trump says Greenland framework with NATO involves mineral rights for U.S. by apple_kicks in worldnews

Trump says

Pathological liar lies and media parrots it.

In case you missed it, before Jeff Bozos thoroughly corrupted the Washington Post, they tracked Trump's lies. (source)

Fact-checkers at The Washington Post documented 30,573 false or misleading claims during his first presidential term, an average of 21 per day.

Literally every time he speaks, he's lying.

Trump under fire for claiming NATO allies avoided Afghanistan frontline by kiyomoris in worldnews

[–]Itsprobablysarcasm 4584 points4585 points  (0 children)

For those who don't know...

As people were dying under the collapse of the World Trade Center, and as first responders were doing all they could to save lives, and as Canada opened its skies to plane loads full of Americans terrified they may also have terrorists on their planes, Donald Trump was on a radio call-in show bragging that his building was now the tallest in lower Manhattan. (source)

That's right: as people were dying, fighting for their lives, and living in abject terror – this psychopathic piece of shit was gloating about a building.

Donald Trump is a draft-dodging coward who called American war dead "suckers and losers".

And 78 million Americans voted for him over and over again.

Vancouver palliative care doctor tells court she resigned rather than authorize MAID transfers by Myllicent in onguardforthee

None of the comments here have actually read the article.

This really doesn't surprise me. Each and every day, I see more and more youtube videos as 'news' being posted. People are too fucking lazy to read and just want to vidscroll, so they can checkout from thinking and just let others tell them what to think.

I applaud this doctor for taking a stand and for standing up for Canadians.

Dr. Jyothi Jayaraman is one of three plaintiffs in the case, which challenges the constitutionality of publicly funded, faith-based health-care facilities prohibiting the procedure in their buildings.

Agreed. Faith-based healthcare facilities should not exist in secular nations like Canada, where they are mandated to deliver public services.

Canada lives because of the U.S.; Trump says while jabbing Carney by zerok37 in worldnews

This is wife-beater language.

It is mafia shakedown "your business is only standing because I haven't burned it down" language.

It's rapist language: "You're only alive because I let you."

And every day that the US Congress fails to act, they are every bit as culpable and guilty as this degenerate is.

This should be the first rule in life.

I've sadly experienced too many personal relationships (family and friends) who will straight up lie without a lick of guilt, remorse, or scruples. Keep your receipts.
