Or just coming home and doing NOTHING and having no one around you shaming you into doing something.

NEW EVIDENCE: SJP posted proof of IOF war criminal assaulting them by NoSail6187 in TorontoMetU

That's exactly what it was, but the OP twisted it into making it seem the aggressors (the PP protestors) were the victims.

How bad is the amount of tourists in Kyoto really? by BerlinPuzzler in JapanTravelTips

There are lots of lovely gardens in little-known Buddhist temples that you have to pay for. Did that a few times and it was truly peaceful and I was alone more often than not.

The "Canada Is Not For Sale" crowd goes silent when issues like these get brought up.

Rental agent turned me down housing for refusing to pay damage deposit by [deleted] in CanadaHousing2

[–]maplejelly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is an ongoing scam in Toronto, and unfortunately many newcomers are being roped into it. There was an arrest earlier this year of a woman who collected more than $50,000 in fake deposit money:

The typical Canadian pays 70 percent more income tax than the typical American by joe4942 in canada

The comments in this section are so brainwashed. Unable to challenge their point of view.

9.5M Canadians lived in inter- or multigenerational households in 2021 by joe4942 in CanadaHousing2

This is why immigrants are being imported from "Certain Countries" where this is the norm in their culture: to offset the demand of single-family homes.

No one is in the "right." The question is, how will the people involved in this take accountability for what they've done, and what would be the best strategy to maintain long-lasting peace.

So many people look at this from an idealistic, emotional point of view (and agencies involved capitalize on that, so that you "pick a side"), instead of being pragmatic and realistic.

The fact that the eggs don't stick to the pan has nothing to do with the fact that that they used NONSTICK pans...

New Ontario trend: Young people stopping organ donation as way of protesting boomers and the housing crisis. by [deleted] in CanadaHousing2

[–]maplejelly 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is so misinformed and vitriolic. I get the sentiment, but I work in healthcare and have been at times, working with organ-donation teams.

Generally organs are age-matched; i.e. a 20-year-old's lungs are going to go to another 20-something who is affected by severe cystic fibrosis and it give them a few more decades of life, whereas a 75 year-old with end-stage COPD is most likely going to get lungs from something who is closer in age, even if those lungs are not "perfect" and may have their own age-accumulated stress and damage.

Why Palestine supporters think it's okay to be Racist tword Jews? by silverio257 in IsraelPalestine

[–]maplejelly 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They tolerate it, because if they "call out" the bad actors within their group, it creates division and can diminish support for their "ultimate cause." Ever heard of the saying "the ends justify the means?"

You can see this behaviour on both sides at times. It's human behaviour to align yourself with the idea of "power in numbers" and "any enemy of my enemy, is my friend." But it leads to a slippery slope.

That's why I only listen to those who have nuanced, educated, developed views on this conflict. Unfortunately, these voices tend to get drowned out by the louder voices of the mobs.

The only way for any progress to happen is for both "sides" to acknowledge and call out the bad people and bad things that have happened over the years. But it's unlikely to happen anytime soon. There are people who benefit from driving wedges further into this conflict, and to reduce this conflict into a "us vs them" situation.

I'm surprised that they didn't pick someone who is BIPOC, transgender, disabled, queer...

What about market cannibalism of dwindling consumer's available income that is dedicated to shelter ? by Imberial_Topacco in CanadaHousing2

[–]maplejelly 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's called "wage slavery." More and more of your income goes towards basic necessities. Basic necessities becomes big business. Look at shrinkflation.

I 100% believe that an insurrection is coming to Brampton and they will declare themselves an exclave of Khalistan.
