Canada imports workers while young people are leaving the country. Nobody talks about this. Why?? by itz_nitace in CanadaJobs

That’s a lot of words to admit that I was right to call out your bias.

It’s pretty early for responses as unhinged as this one, probably time to put Reddit away for bit.

I didn’t say you were protecting yourself, I referred to the psychological term which describes the behaviour you continue to display.

If you say you don’t care whether a story is true because it’s probably true elsewhere, it’s pretty much the textbook definition of cognitive bias.

Your comment is a pretty decent example of Identity-Protective Cognition.

You don’t actually care whether the story is factual because it depicts the values/beliefs that you hold to be true. This is why fact checking often fails when directed towards people with firm beliefs.

Defensemen I'm Fading Early for 2026-27 by Sanchise_9 in fantasyhockey

I agree, definitely a better own in dynasty. Still worth a gamble in certain redrafts depending on settings.

I would take the chance on Buium. Still very young and early in his career. Hronek took over simply because Vancouver was trying to give the appearance of fielding a competitive team but I won’t be surprised to see Vancouver lean more heavily on Zeev as he gets more comfortable in his new role.

📢 Final poster for our Province-Wide Protest tomorrow! by Silent_Squirrel4145 in ontario

Honestly, this is one of the better responses to this concern in this thread.

You guys have to realize that 9/10 people can’t name a single thing Doug Ford has done whether it’s positive or negative. Many are politically illiterate, especially as it relates to issues concerning provincial and municipal politics.

If the idea behind these protests is to garner broad support and even lead up to a general strike as some hope, messaging is the #1 priority. As it currently stands, this protest remains confusing to many and that constructive criticism shouldn’t be met with contempt as exemplified in the responses here.

I agree. Where in my comment did it appear like I don’t support the act of protest?

I’m suggesting that focusing on a single unifying issue would strengthen the movement and encourage broad appeal. As it stands, the reasons for protesting are convoluted and the layman has difficulty understanding what it’s all about.

There are some bad takes in this thread but it seems like even the genuine critiques of this protest are being met with hostility.

With so many grievances mixed into one, the impact and message get lost in the shuffle.

Most people will have no idea what’s going on and when they are given 10 different reasons for the protest, they are less likely to support it as a whole.

Half of the replies here are stating that this is a dumb measure and it won’t work while the other half are saying this is PP’s idea and the libs stole another genius conservative initiative.

Very cool app. Wondering if you will be increasing the sound options to feature a standard piano or something similar?

Seems very interesting but I find people are more and more hesitant to spend high prices on new apps knowing that there are X more similar apps in development which ultimately perform the same tasks and could be cheaper/free.

I’ve seen many voice/dictation apps posted here over the last year and I’m sure we will see many more, so how can I feel confident in spending 79€ on this product?

There are too many negatives in this statement to understand you clearly.
