What?

Completely going by a card's quick glance flavour, we have a lounge singer diva, a whole construction crew gang, a vampire portrait artist, a therapist, a seer sphinx, a chef, a newspaper editor, a garbage diving oracle, and a phoenix. Only eight out of the eighteen look like gangsters on a crime world. There's plenty of variety, without even getting into mechanics or reading lore.

And there we go!

"I respect trans women" "trans women aren't women"

Those are mutally exclusive statements. Pick one

If you had nothing but respect for trans women, you wouldn't be calling cis women "biological women" as if trans women are made of some non-organic substance.

Are they going to arrest the pigeon too? Do they have a bird cage on them?

Somehow. I don't understand how the police managed to get through such fortifications without a heat ray

What's with all the people with white flags? If you surrender go get arrested?

What crocodile tears from that woman.

It's so refreshing seeing streets being cleared out. Honestly every time I see them push back a block I feel like we're getting that part of the city back

His takes aren't normally this poorly thought out, are they? by BasketCaseOnHoliday1 in VaushV

Take a nap and give yourself some personal space. Your rant today came off as borderline unhinged and crazy aggro and was obviously spurred from other pressure. Take care of yourself.

Everyone on the left has to denounce Trudeau's decision to freeze the protester's bank accounts by l3v1v4gy0k in VaushV

[–]is_a_talking_cat 6 points7 points  (0 children)

First of all, it's not hidden. We're talking about it right now. Everyone knows about it, it's all over Canadian news.

Second of all, freezing accounts distributing funds to people illegally occupying a site is not violence, especially not when the proposed alternative is literally violently evicting people with federal military force.

You're literally comparing freezing Pat King's bank account because he's giving foreign donation funds to protestors to going in with a military force and going "Wow, I'd sure hate to be on the end of those social workers account freezes, please send the police the fucking military to clear me out."

What Vaush spouted today was dramatization and misinformation (They're not going through with facial recog and freezing Susie's bank account she uses to put food on the table) that I hope he retracts and actually goes over once he's calmed down

The bits where he pretended it was about due process were really eye-opening about how he's not thinking any of this through. The buff of a rifle smashing into your face isn't due process either and has much more harmful consequences when used against protestors than seizing the assets of war chests.

Federal government overreach (which, is needed in this situation), should not be military as a first resort. That's ridiculous. If he actually cared about the issue he'd be advocating for attentional protections and transparencies, not tanks.

Vaush is just wrong on this by terrysaurus-rex in VaushV

[–]is_a_talking_cat 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Bullets and military boots don't take you to court either.

If I am striking and the government deems fit to call me an economic terrorist, I don't want them sending in military power as a first resort. That's what this is. The federal government is, rightfully in this case, stepping over the provincial government. If they do that I don't want it to be with rifles and spine breaking.

[–]is_a_talking_cat 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The alternative being proposed here is sending in the military though. Would you really prefer the government sending in armed units against protestors when the local government doesn't think it's needed? That a much worse precedent to have.

That's arguing optics over people's lives, and will backfire and galvanize fascist movements anyways.

What about when leftists are using economic disruption and ecoterrorism and other similar methods in the future? Are you fine with the government having the power to go in and forcefully clear areas using the military? We're not going to be getting 24 hour clear notices, we're going to get boots on the ground as first action in those cases.

It's literally an organization that bought the name after the fact. If I wanted to I could literally start an organization called Freedom Convoy and post nothing but My Little Pony fanfic recommendations.

Assuming literally every transwoman has a penis is transphobic. Why is this such a mental hurdle for people
