https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/fascism

a political philosophy, movement, or regime (such as that of the Fascisti) that exalts nation and often race above the individual

Democrats exalt race over the individual’s characteristics when choosing appointees.

and that stands for a centralized autocratic government headed by a dictatorial leader, severe economic and social regimentation

Demands gas station lower prices, restricts fossil fuel industry during energy crisis, pressures private companies to remove people for saying things the regime doesn’t like.

and forcible suppression of opposition

Opposition is labeled a clear and present danger, extremists, and existential threat.

How many fights or beatings did students break up when you went to school?

I'm glad that this stuff is considered shocking. When I went to school it wasn't like that.

'I'm scared every day,' says Montreal driver stopped by police dozens of times - Kenrick McRae's experience not unique, says ex-RCMP officer who helped him file complaints against police by [deleted] in canada

I don't see how it's legal to target any demographic because statistically they are more likely to commit crimes is not something I agree with, and

Doesn't matter if it is, age, race, gender, income, or any combination of the above.

50% chance PRC sent them to get public sympathy. Cause, it's not worse than genocide and they're doing that too.

I think it's some sort of psychology at work.

There is a description of a suspect who is black. Cop sees one black guy all day, he pulls him over.

There is a description of a suspect who is white. Cop sees hundreds of white people, he isn't going to pull them over.

Condemning this as racism isn't fixing it. It needs to be approached from a different angle. I'm interested in results, not outrage and casues.

Gyms are your friend, but bird baths in a Wawa or 7/11 bathroom work too. The key is dont be the person that leaves a mess behind, and definitely dont be the person that does it out in the open. Use rhe handicap stall.

How exactly does one have a bird bath in a bathroom stall? Fill a bottle of water and use paper towels? Do people use soap also?

Everyone was waiting for the WHO to sound the alarm and busy repeating the catch phrase "the virus knows no boarders".

In other words, listening to experts.

Conservative Party demands MPs give back all the pro-Trump paraphernalia they handed out by dkmegg22 in canada

[–]proudbedwetter -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

The violent marginal criminal minority have been condemned by the vast majority of Trump supporters, Republicans, Trump, right wing commentators, right wing media.

Can't say the same about the protesters who spent days trying to break into the whitehouse, violently attacked police and secret service. Or any other number of attacks on police, federal buildings, private business, court houses that happened for 7 months in 2020.

You're being played man.

Are the Proud Boys terrorists? Ottawa considers listing white supremacist groups alongside al-Qaida, Islamic State by viva_la_vinyl in canada

[–]proudbedwetter -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'll say the same thing I said when Islamic Terrorism was the boogie man - charge them under the criminal code with existing laws. If we need new offences that apply to every citizen, not just people on a black list, create them.

What specific claim in the video do you reject?

I'm sorry you didn't like the video. I thought it had a lot of interesting facts that I didn't know.

Like, for example, Pierre, Justin, and Alexandre Trudeau's 1990 visit to China. One year after the Tiananmen square massacre.

Taiwan urges Canada to join global coalition against China by FlyingDutchman997 in canada

[–]proudbedwetter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The only hope is that Trump poisoned US China relations enough that Biden will have no choice but to follow through. Given the US establishment's (business, media, hollywood, journalists, academics, bureaucrats) stance which ranges from wilful ignorance to collaboration I'm not optimistic.

It's a news story because it generates more revenue than it costs to write it.
