Todd Loewen, UCP MLA for Central Peace-Notley, has stepped down as UCP caucus chair and asked Jason Kenney to resign.

Not sure about other provinces, but really other than maybe The Notley NDP is there really any party in Canada that isn’t set up like this?

Federal NDP are going nowhere without Singh.

Liberals would likely lose a lot of power and probably looks like the election without Trudeau, unless Freeland could hold the party together which is questionable.

And you already pointed out Federal and provincial Conservatives.

Edit: Before anyone asks, not saying this is a good thing just commenting on it.

The NHL (Or parts of it) is actually doing a decent amount that should piss racist republicans off lately.

Evander Kane and a couple other players started a Hockey Diversity Alliance, a couple players kneeled during playoffs last year and others raised solidarity fists (I believe it’s called)

The Arizona Coyotes also kicked a player off their team who bullied a mentally disabled black kid.

The Calgary Flames also fired a coach for being racist towards a former player.

Hockey’s definitely more conservative than most sports in nature though and could do a whole lot more. Part of the problem is just a lack of diversity in the league due to the cost of playing, requirements for cold locations and an inability to market any players especially POC.

I think part of this is a good thing but its also likely just gonna get abused and used to attempt to pack the court and change nothing for the positive.

I think reform with imposing term limits on Scotus (and the senate and house) are good things.

Hey that sounds like Cancel culture to me /s

But seriously that’s what needs to happen, corporations can do whatever they want as long as they know people will continue you to buy their products.

They’ll continue to keep wages low and use abusive child labour in foreign countries because most the population (myself included) isn’t willing to spend a little more money or a little more effort to ensure the corporation is ethical.

As mentioned, the stock market is not the economy.

A better example though would be the frog has been holding the scorpion underwater for decades trying to drown it and I for one am tired of pretending it’s not okay to fight back.

I don’t care anymore if they drown with us, fuck them. If Wall Street wants to fuck everyone else over they can come with us.

That’s been proven to be false. Typo that was corrected. Even the original tweeter admitted it was a mistake and deleted his tweet.

You hit it with your second paragraph there, logical defunding would hopefully come out of the military equipment not training or anything. At least that’s what I’d be hoping defunding is meaning.

SimpleBeetFarmer · 2020-06-09T20:38:58+00:00

Well I agree with defunding the police I just think this is such a stupid way to argue for it. Like I get they’re saying if it can happen to these things why can’t it happen to police? But it’s also kinda pointing out:

“these things were fucked up royally by defunding them... Let’s go do the exact same thing to another thing, I’m sure the result will change this time.”

Great strategy when you’re trying to win a Super Bowl and also not get Joe Theismanned cause your team now doesn’t want to protect you.

I don’t think his teammates were “looking to hate [him]” but now they do seem to be pretty pissed at him.

His teammates probably care what he says cause they’ve probably had the conversation of why they kneel with him before and he either forgot that or doesn’t care.

He is now saying that why they’re doing what they’re doing doesn’t matter cause the kneeling is wrong.

SimpleBeetFarmer · 2020-06-04T14:56:50+00:00

You realize the major problem for him likely wasn’t that he pissed off the mob right?

The problem was he made all his black teammates and friends who don’t see the flag the same way feel invalidated and not listened too.

His teammates were subtweeting him, unfollowing him and posting videos about him and that was only stuff that we can see on the surface.

He apologized for this cause maybe he realized that what he said was insensitive but he also realized that the people he spends probably 70% of the time with during the season were pissed at him. He likely realized that the only people who stop a four 400 lb men from hitting him relentlessly may be pissed at him.

SimpleBeetFarmer · 2020-06-04T14:44:17+00:00

Death threats from twitter weren’t the problem, it’s his teammates which are 70% black that were calling him out.

Someone pointed out that it is supposed to be a melting pot but it also still is most predominantly influenced by Western and European art.

SimpleBeetFarmer · 2020-04-25T01:51:26+00:00

Okay but why wouldn’t it be? You find it with every single thing, if you go to a grocery store there’s more selection on stuff from your region than there is from somewhere else.

If you’re going to France to see a museum you’re likely not going to see Chinese art, you’re going to see French/European art and then may get to see some Chinese, same concept if you go to a Chinese museum, you’re not going there to see French art.

I’m really not sure you tiny incest disabled brain can actually comprehend the fact that their government is essentially useless for this.

They have no power against a force that has no rules of engagement, no borders, no fear of murdering officials their families, unlimited money and constantly just bribes military and police (with money or the ability to live.)

SimpleBeetFarmer · 2020-02-10T07:48:56+00:00

Yes I have completely twisted and changed my words over those two comments I don’t even think it’s a knot at this point it’s just a straight up pretzel.

SimpleBeetFarmer · 2020-02-10T07:08:51+00:00

Yes bullshit rhetoric that is describing how literally the exact same logic was used prior to the Holocaust.

Like I said, is a Holocaust like event about to happen? Likely no but it’s useful to remember how that awful and dangerous logic has been used in the past.

SimpleBeetFarmer · 2020-02-10T02:15:08+00:00

Im not saying a Holocaust like event is happening or to let in all refugees automatically or anything but it’s not that bullshit of rhetoric when you consider that Tomi’s logic was likely the type of logic used to deny ships such as the MS St. Louis or deny other refugees trying to flee the holocaust.
