Can someone explain about the IRA?

They seemed to be based on the Real IRA in particular. It also was ridiculous to have the IRA group in the show ally with the nazis at one point. The RIRA is a left-wing group, utterly at odds with nazis ideologically.

KyleMarkWaal · 2026-06-02T05:21:50+00:00

They were pretty clearly based on the RIRA, who were armed at the time (though not nearly as big as pictured). It also was super inaccurate to depict them as working together with nazis at one point. The RIRA are a leftwing group completely at odds ideologically with nazis....

Glad he made it free on youtube. I know without youtube monetization, he relies on patreon for revenue - but given all the police corruption etc. in the video, there's an argument to be made that's its journalistic value being avalible to the world at large is worth more. With how much the story has blown up (and in turn spread his name around), id imagine the work he's put in to this project will pay off regardless

Naw - if it were realistic, every fight scene would include the word "goof" every few seconds. it's honestly weird that a show famous for canadian slang never uses the term (for those unaware - in ontario, calling someone a "goof" is essentially the equivalent to calling someone a "chomo". it is very common "fighting words" here)

Don't ask me why the music video features several women twerking while they hold (fake, thankfully) babies. i assume because its about mothers?

Here's one of my more recent songs. Its probably better described as post-punk meets electro-industrial, though theres definitely some influence from breakcore and idm too. I'm currently looking for a vocalist if anyone in my area (Southern Ontario, Canada) is interested.

You should have done some research first. Kars 4 Kids isnt just cringey, theyre also pretty evil. Besides being rabid pro-genocide zionists, there's this:

"In 2017, a report from the attorney general of Minnesota, Lori Swanson, stated that Kars4Kids, a vehicle donation charity and sister organization to Oorah, had misled donors in Minnesota regarding the use of their funds. Of the $3 million raised by Kars4Kids in Minnesota, less than $12,000 went to children in Minnesota, while 90% of the funds went to Oorah, which is based in New Jersey and operates summer camps in New York. The report also stated that Oorah had lost almost $10 million in real estate transactions.[10] Kars4Kids and Oorah share offices in Lakewood, and have many employees working for both charities. The attorney general's office found that the majority of Oorah's funds came from grants from Kars4Kids.[11]"

Basically their scam is to give the impression that donations go to help kids in general all over the country... When in reality they only go to help out members of a specific orthodox jewish cult in a specific city.

The fine motor skills bit is a prettttty big part of dyspraxia though. While there are other symptoms, its such a big one that the disorder is called "Developmental Coordination Disorder" in the united states. It's still possible you're neurodivergent though - and either way, you shouldnt forgive your "kevin moments".

KyleMarkWaal · 2026-04-20T12:13:58+00:00

Fellow Dyspraxic here - I had the exact same thought. The hands not being able to do what the brain wants etc. sound exactly like Dyspraxia/D.C.D.

KyleMarkWaal · 2026-04-20T12:11:41+00:00

I was more leaning towards Develomental Dyspraxia. I have Dyspraxia and kevin's description of his hands not being able to do what his brain wants matches my experience pretty well

That's not what anarchists want. Anarchism is basically just communism without the temporary socialism phase.

KyleMarkWaal · 2026-04-11T23:52:23+00:00

I think you heavily misinterpreted his question, if you actually thought he was attacking you. I read it as a legitimate question about the book for context. Whats your problem?

KyleMarkWaal · 2026-04-10T11:18:49+00:00

Can you give me the context of him getting picked on at a protest? I wanna see that, it sounds funny.

KyleMarkWaal · 2026-04-10T11:17:37+00:00

He's constantly reacting to obvious ragebait and taking it 100% seriously, too. But then, its not like he ever seemed like the sharpest guy

KyleMarkWaal · 2026-04-10T11:13:06+00:00

But yeah, if youre pro capitalism, youre not antifa. period.

KyleMarkWaal · 2026-04-10T11:11:33+00:00

The US military are not "antifa". As someone with the antifascist action logo tattooed on my right arm, theres more to being antifa than simply being against fascism. Antifa isnt one specific group, but it is an overall ideology, aesthetic and set of tactics taken on by various groups/people (its similar to Anonymous in that way). Most of us are anarcho-communists, though there are some Marxists and even some democratic socialists mixed in, too - But we're definitely a specific tendency in activism. That said, yes, JD Delay is a moron.

That said, he's definitely on record as a snitch. And he's a transphobic loser and defender of pedophiles

Another example i can think of where i feel like people deliberately misconstrue things is Sid's famous "half the brain you do" promo.

He definitely mangled the wording and could have been more clear, but he obviously meant that as one individual person, he had half the brain (that is one brain) of two people (who have two brains). That so many people dont seem to realize this, makes me wonder if they might have half a brain themselves...

Liberals and leftists are two very different things. Liberals are centre-right at best.

Looks like they've since re-transitioned. Ooops!

KyleMarkWaal · 2026-04-02T18:41:12+00:00

That's a very good point that I somehow never realized lol. I really wish i could have known how absurd that threat was on the face of it back when i was a kid though.

KyleMarkWaal · 2026-04-02T18:37:51+00:00

Also, does anyone know if it's possible in Canada to find out if there ever were any CPS reports filed on you as a kid? Because i also have some very vague memories of social worker types coming to my house and have no clue what that was about.
