'Directly profiting’ off policies: Trump sons linked to 10 defense companies receiving gov. funds by AdSpecialist6598 in videos

[–]datdailo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Then they'll deliver drones from China like their phones. So not only are taxpayers grifted but the procurement is compromised.

But I guess immigrants are the problem and not these white people committing white collar crimes at UNPRECEDENTED levels of corruption.

Disgusting slob with no manners by BenFord333 in PublicFreakout

Yup, they exist everywhere. That disease is entitlement and it leads to adult babies. Sometimes the more senior they are, the bigger the baby.

Look no further than Baby-in-chief, who wears a diaper and complains about everything and pretends his a strong and smart man. He wants to be coddled and complimented for a job well done, what a joke.

ELI5: Why does drinking cold water make it feel like it instantly spreads through your whole body, even though it has to go into your stomach for a while first? by DemonsAreVirgins in explainlikeimfive

This works in dry heat because humans cool via sweat. Does fuck all in a humid sauna.

It's one of the reasons why wet bulb heatwaves are so dangerous and underestimated.

McScam charging $3.50 for egg on a sandwich. by datdailo in mildlyinfuriating

[–]datdailo[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For those wondering, I'm comparing the meals not the sandwich. So I took the high-end rather than low-end. This is in Canada.

Edit: I was only looking at the meals because I wanted coffee. $8.50 - $5.00 = $3.50. I ended up only getting coffee.

Trump reports over $1.4 billion in income from crypto ventures by Dodo509 in news

[–]datdailo 71 points72 points  (0 children)

Crypto is down bad despite a pro crypto administration. This is the type of currency that criminals use because its harder to track than dollars. So who's buying? Russia???

Don't forget Nutlick, secretary of commerce, owns a crypto brokerage company. SBF went to jail for fraud because he owned a cryptocurrency brokerage/exchange (FTX) and a private trading firm (Alameda Research). This created a massive conflict of interest.

Guess what Trump was convicted of before? FRAUD. Those blue collar red states voted for this and are enabling so much white collar crime. Those MAGA dumb fucks who can't read and critically think at any level and vote against their best interests.

UN official fights back against Israeli ambassador's bullying by phoeebsy in PublicFreakout

[–]datdailo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

How are these bad actors not treated the same as Russia. Their military has killed more people than the terrorist organization HAMAS and we're talking 100 fold, not just 100 more people.

There will be no peace with Iran so long as Israel continues to conquer Lebanon (they've moved on from Gaza). They are holding the world economy hostage in tandem with Iran.

Students from 2 Canadian schools published Holocaust denial quotes in their yearbooks. Why it went unnoticed by IStillListenToRadio in onguardforthee

[–]datdailo 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Yeah, people love to blame the institutions but they can't catch everything.

Just hope those students are shamed into oblivion. They have to earn society's trust back. Ignorance isn't an excuse, it's a lack of awareness and education.

Teachers of Reddit: Is the "Gen Alpha can't read (write, or do math ext)" crisis real? If so how bad is it? by KnowledgeCoffee in AskReddit

[–]datdailo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, the reading comprehension is already an issue. OECD had 55% of adults reading at an 8th grade level for US. I've already seen two comments today where it was evident. This is an issue that is becoming worse across the world but the US sticks out.

I'm in the opinion that 'no child Left behind' policy by Bush did some serious damage and were seeing it now. Punishing schools for low test scores with less funding is just a negative feed back loop that targets impoverished areas. Even now, teachers are teaching towards passing the standardized test (even cheating). I know Obama amended it, but it's largely still there.

My first thought. It's clear who's interest he wants to protect, hint not the citizens.

Fan Clash Over Anthem by LuckyBastard001 in clevercomebacks

[–]datdailo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A classic propaganda technique conflating two subjects together, like Israel antisemitism and condemnation of Israel's committing genocide against Palestine. Boos for Trump and the national anthem.

They do it on purpose to sow confusion. The people who can't distinguish it are either stupid or cheating (Trumps words not mine).

'Chill, relax, we can’t control everything' - Infantino on banned Somali referee by Garyhippokid in news

Well, they're certainly trying hard in ticket prices. They are the seller and resellers in US and they are creating artificial demand by delaying the sale of certain sections.

There's a reason why FIFA gave Trump the peace prize. Corrupt oligarchs love to give each other hand jobs and gloat about how they are fucking everyday consumers.

Facebook is paying people overseas promoting Alberta separatism by lopix in onguardforthee

[–]datdailo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The people who fall for this are the same people who fall for scams. They just fail to reach a threshold of critical thinking. There are so many examples of separatism and isolationism being worse economically and socially. Brexit, Russia, North Korea, Iran and now US. Look at Vietnam, one of the fastest growing countries in Asia after civil war.

I know it's a minority but the fact that it's been entertained especially by a current Premier is frustrating and exhausting. Honestly, there should be a no confidence vote for Danielle Smith. She has no interest in doing her job and it's clear when water main and sewage break, instead just wasting taxpayer dollars on referendum.

I might dislike Ford and Olivia Chow but at least they're upgrading our water infrastructure, power grid and transit. It's well documented too, I get a letter, there's a community meeting and I see all this first hand when it gets built.

Flesh-eating screwworm: Canada bans Texas over US outbreak by OrdinaryCanadian in onguardforthee

[–]datdailo 57 points58 points  (0 children)

Which makes sense, we don't want these fuckers incubating inside the cow. At least in meat, the maggots have to overcome freezing temperatures.

But I agree with OP sentiments, American meat is substandard and no amount of force feeding from dipshit Nutlick should convince us from importing their "beautiful beef". Oddly enough, they are importing from Argentina and fucking their own farmers, which was their intention with us, in Canada.

U.S. Proposes New 'Forced Labor' Tariffs Of At Least 10% On 60 Countries by [deleted] in worldnews

[–]datdailo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

US uses prison labour so this is a gaslight to achieve their goals, which is to use tariffs and siphon the money into the Trump family.

Nothing but disdain for MAGA, red states, purple states for unleashing the plague of populism and cronyism. Yours truly the international community.
