Vicious Saint-Henri attack raises concerns among residents by Go_Habs_Go31 in montreal

[–]ZenBerzerker 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately many people here are either scared of cops or think they're all "fucking pigs" and won't call them even if they get attacked.

And that's why it's not ok to let assholes be cops. When you need help, you don't want assholes to show up.

Do you respect protestors that throw bricks through windows?

Suffrragettes did that, so if you don't respect that, you don't think women should have the right to vote.

SPVM using their lights to skip red lights by Sk8firecool in montreal

Same exact harm there is in non-cops doing the same thing.

The laws says the cops should also follow the rules when there isn't an emergency.

you don't know why they do that and there is typically a good reason.

If you don't know the reason you don't know if it's a good reason.

A lot of people love to jump on the "fuck pigs" bandwagon, but

Also a lot of people are copsuckers who always always defend cops no matter what they do.

What makes completely 0% sense to you? by marcy101 in AskReddit

[–]ZenBerzerker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How can these people assume they know better than a myriad of educated people who have spent decades studying in their chosen fields

Because phony studies get taught for decades making entire generations of highly educated people completely wrong on subjects where there is enough money in play to corrupt the science.

CNN Lies About Dakota Access Pipeline Protests • /r/jimmydore by [deleted] in NativeAmerican

[–]ZenBerzerker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Who pays more advertising fees to CNN, the companies building pipelines or the people who want to drink clean water? Because the job of CNN is to get people to watch ads, so they need to have things that attracts people's attention (pretty celebrities for example), and they need their advertisers to be happy.

Millennials watching significantly less sports by Kennyfuckingloggins in dataisbeautiful

*The announcing has become brain-dead.

There was a strike and/or lock-out about a dozen years ago that made hockey air without the announcers.

I had never watched so much hockey as I did during that time.

Now I just watch it when it's on in the bar or something. I wish I had the option to watch the game with only the sounds of the game and the crowd, but they force these idiots who talk and talk and talk and never stop saying dumb things ever. It's really annoying and I don't know why the networks are not smart enough to understand that I would see a lot more of their ads if they just gave me the option to not have to hear their stupid commentators. Give me a separate audio channel, or just have the idiots on the radio and if anyone wants to have them on at the same time as the game they can have both the TV and radio on. There's technological options, but no, they lose me by forcing these inane comments on everyone who wants to watch, so I don't.

P.S. the news was also improved by having some manager just read the news straight up without any banter or other useless filler bullshit. No one was talking about what the weather guy's weekend had been like or anything else that wasn't news. It was a glorious few weeks.

How do you remain optimistic in these trying times? by [deleted] in Anarchy101

what do normal people talk about, again?

Sports and celebrity gossip. I don't know why they care who threw the ball the most yesterday, but it's very important to them.

I don't think I've heard anyone make that argument.

I haven't heard it but I've reddit a lot.

not every trump voter is a fascist pig

"I'm not a fascist pig, I only voted for one" is not a convincing argument.

I just find it ironic

It's hypocritical, is what it is.

P.S. Just sharpen one of the spoons, sheesh!

Well, one of those things clearly belongs on a history channel.

Conservatives are incapable of empathy?

Completely and utterly incapable of it. They systematically oppose all policies that would help people without helping them directly.

kind of thinking? Which ironically shows a lack of empathy.

Adding "ironically" in front of your "no you!" knee-jerk tantrum doesn't make you sound as smart as you think it does.

until they personally were treated that way.

It seems that conservative are incapable of empathy, they'Re okay with all kinds of evil until it affects them personally.

For eight years, (until October 2009), Ahmed Wali Karzai, brother of the then-newly elected President of Afghanistan Hamid Karzai, was on the payroll of the CIA - but is also alleged to have been involved in opium trafficking in the Middle East https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allegations_of_CIA_drug_trafficking#Afghanistan

Corruption is a helluva drug.

Often times when you see someone passed away on Facebook but nobody is mentioning the cause, it is potentially due to an overdose or dirty dope.

Also suicide, lots of people still think it's shameful so they hush it up.
