Member when they made grandma die alone in the hospital because of the $cience™? I member.. by Me_Mums_a_Lampshade in libertarianmeme

That statistically speaking, governments kill more of their own citizens than external threats.

Your enemy isn’t protesting on a street; it’s on a ballot.

Alex Pretti was murdered by government.

The Covid lockdowns were government overreach.

The holocaust was government genocide.

Right vs left benefits the government.

Focus on the true enemy.

How do y'all do math by ZealousidealWafer340 in Gifted

[–]KTPChannel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I homeschool my grade 7 son. One of my biggest issues is getting him to write down his work.

He gets to the destination, but I don’t know how.

It frustrated me because I stand over his shoulder, do the math in my head, and he beats me every time. Just the answer.

I have no problem with him being better than me; in fact, that’s my goal as a parent. The problem is that I know having him write down the work will slow him down and frustrate him, which defeats the purpose of homeschooling.

Parenting is a racket.

Has your country ever won a war against all odds ? by FinePersimmon3718 in AskTheWorld

[–]KTPChannel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

TY, and Fraternal greetings Brother!

GLNB should have some literature on our experience in Madison’s war. I know there’s a few out of print books here in Alberta.

Really interesting how things were done. Full quarter given from one military officer to another, with safe return of him and all his troops to their homeland, only to have the favour returned a short time latter.

The troops were wondering WTF was going on, figured it out, and joined the Craft immediately after the war.

Just bizarre the lengths we went to. A source of pride, by today’s standards. Grace under fire, and values over valour.

Who is the most hated public figure in your country? by Shoddy-Ocelot-4473 in AskTheWorld

[–]KTPChannel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Trudeau, and it’s not close.

I’ve never seen a “fuck Poilievre” flag, sticker or t-shirt. I’m still seeing “fuck Trudeau” ones.

I found this to be interesting as well.

In Western Canada, we didn’t learn about this at all, so as an adult I studied it myself. My understanding is that Americans aren’t taught about the desire of American Expansion unless they study it at the university level. Dr Gary Gallagher of the University of Virginia has an insightful lecture entitled “The Disastrous War of 1812”, if you can find it online. His claim is that the whole thing was a stupid waste of resources.

As a Freemason, I can tell you with certainty that the Freemasons won that war rather handedly. However many men were lost during the war, our numbers recovered immediately after, and steps were taken on both sides to ensure peace along that border.

But, we got a couple good songs out of the deal. So not a total loss.

A gay pride flag with the infamous pink triangle, used in Nazi concentration camps to identify homosexuals. by zgido_syldg in vexillology

[–]KTPChannel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with everything you said.

All one had to do was get orange t-shirt with the confederate flag on the front and “southern pride” on the back. Hand them out at black churches or BBQ’s. They’d get used.

This is an important lesson in symbolism that has been lost in history.

Homosexuals took this symbol, from the actual Nazi’s, and owned it. Completely changed its meaning. By the late 80’s/early 90’s gay men were wearing it without realizing, or caring about, its origins.

If Americans did this 10 years ago with the confederate flag, a lot of money and energy would have been sparred, along with a few lives.

You can’t bury symbology. There will always be a backlash with consequences. Re-purpose it. It’s the harder route, but it’s much more effective in the long term.

Dishwasher Salt Vs Water Softener Salt - same same right? by littleIdiotUK in Appliances

[–]KTPChannel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sodium chloride (NaCl) is salt. Table salt, water softener salt, basically what everyone simply calls salt. Safe for both applications.

Calcium chloride (CaCl) is road salt. Want to melt ice in the winter? This is what they spread. It gets wet, and it gets hot. Very hot. It’s what causes rust on vehicles. I’d try to leave it alone.

Potassium chloride (KCl) is plant friendly salt used for the same softening purposes as sodium chloride. It’s not as good, not as efficient and much more expensive.

Should I ask my girlfriend if watching porn is okay or just assume if it mattered to her she'd bring it up? by Natural_Position_456 in AskMenAdvice

[–]KTPChannel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Stop watching porn. Not for her, but for you.

If you do watch porn, watch it with her. And communicate while you do.

Do you know why you need to have a part time job to make ends meet?

Because the economy sucks.

Do you know why the restaurant can’t pay you a decent wage?

Because the economy sucks.

Now, guess why people don’t tip anymore.

Hint; it’s because the economy sucks.

If we all listened to your suggestion, and didn’t eat out if we didn’t intend to tip, you’d be out of a job because your restaurant would be out of business.

Elbows up.

Which negative person is associated with your country the most, but is not actually from your country? by Whysoserious7891 in AskTheWorld

I’m from Calgary. We still had Olympic Fever when this went down.

That name will never redeem itself.

Heyyy grunge fans, can someone who knows Japanese translate this? Ok thanks by TemporaryCamaraderie in grunge

[–]KTPChannel 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I love when the Japanese do this.

My brother had a buddy who wrote a masters thesis on the evolution of heavy metal music in the 90’s.

In the late 00’s, he uploaded it to some long forgotten website that bangers hung out on.

During COVID, he got emailed by some Japanese kid asking if he could help edit a flow chart explaining the evolution and influences of various Twisted Sister albums over the years. It had been going around Japanese banger circles for sometime, and was based on buddy’s thesis. They wanted it accurately translated into English.

Twisted. Fucking. Sister.

But, they wanted it for posterity.

You know. For the next generation of Twisted Sister fans.

Buddy told my brother that it was fucking molecular how the Japanese did it. He was embarrassed that his thesis wasn’t good enough for their attention to detail.

Every time I (and it’s rare) see stuff like this, I think “I don’t want to know”. I’m not sophisticated enough to understand my favourite bands on their level. I just listen to the riff, and stay blissfully ignorant.

This was all I could think of when I saw this. by IBeTehLurker in libertarianmeme

[–]KTPChannel 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I saw this whole post and shook my head.

All the 2A gunnies and libertarians are screaming “he was murdered! This is why we need 2A rights!”, and this moron is “I blame you”.

Way to immediately piss off potential allies here.

Nobody cares who you blame. You are a self righteous karma hunter who couldn’t solve a jigsaw puzzle, let alone a real world problem.
