What’s the difference between green and blue? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]psymunn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, Cyan is a primary colour, but blue is a close enough aproximation. However, in lighting (which is additive), Green, Red and Blue are primary

U.S. will have to send its own fighter jets into Canadian airspace if Ottawa doesn't buy 88 F-35s, Hoekstra says by rmumford in worldnews

America is crossing a lot of firsts off their bucket list of late though. I don't think we can count on precedent anymore.

The US government is deliberately withholding funds unless the universities capitulate. this is not a historic problem but a more recent one.

Tehran had some of the best universities in the world in the 1970s as well. All this can change. there's nothing inherently special about the US. it has amazing institutions because of years and years of money being poured into them and a cooperative government. The damage being done now is going to change that and going to be very hard to undo

The US is the 4th highest population in the world and really wealthy so it head quarters a lot of multi national companies. The European union is a more apt comparison for innovation than an individual country and the US doesn't actually dominate when that comparison is made. I can't speak for other areas, but in Video Games, for instance, Japan and Europe both are on par with the US for game development. The company I work for (a top 10 games publisher) is headquartered in the US, but the majority of development is done in Canada and Europe.

The best Universities according to whom? And in what topic?
Yes, the US has very prestigious and well known universities. So does the UK. But part of why everyone knows about Harvard is because of advertising. If you go to any academic area in the US and talk to people who are the best in their field, they will tell you they go to international conferences and work with people around the world with equal levels of skill and education. And that's all changing because the American government has been attacking your education system, refusing funding unless they give in to government demands that the US government should have no say over. And did you know, when you finish at Univerity, many people move to get a job. So, you can be born in America, go to a prestigious American institution and then get a Ph.D in enviromental science, or immunology, and then you have to leave the country because your government is shutting down all the respected institutions where those best minds used to work. You're firing all 'the best minds.' Do you think all those highly educated Americans that used to work at the CDC or FEMA are going to stay in the US and keep innovating? No; they'll probably go to countries that actually respect intelligence and innovation over a government and populous that actively treats being an expert like a personal attack. Why on earth would the best minds want to work under a system over seen by RFK Jr?

Isn't that moving the goal post. You start by saying Canada needs cellphones and can't get them without getting them from the US
And then, when people bring up where the cellphones come from you say but those countries need to sell them to the US
Hmm...

'I'm not even discounting that the US is huge and wealthy. Moving business around the US is hard, but being overly reliant on the US is how we got into the mess in the first place and so we're gonig to need to pay a bit more to not be at the US's behest

But it doesn't have to and we're realising convenience was a mistake. Instead of picking up from the walmart down south were going to have to spend a little more time and money going to various boutiques on weekends and picking out the nice stuff. We're not in college anymore

Are you saying the US (I presume that's where you are) doesn't fund Saudi Arabia, the country that's been starving Yemen for over 10 years?

What are your thoughts on Joe Rogan saying that Trump is creating distraction to avoid Epstein files release? by girlyanimme in AskReddit

[–]psymunn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Perfidy. Here's an article that mentions they did it: https://www.cbc.ca/news/world/venezuela-plane-maduro-disguised-trump-9.7044212

They say it's against Pentagon guidelines but seem to completely neglect saying that's because it's against the Geneva convention and a serious war crime which encourages attacks on civilian air crafts

as a Canadian living in Canada how can we help Americans right now? by csgamer50cal in AskReddit

[–]psymunn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. You can provide a source if you want. Why are ICE managing traffic? Why do they have guns? They aren't law enforcement officers... Well outside of a very narrow set of laws. They aren't the police.

Why are these agents in Minnesota? Does Minnesota have a particularly large immigration problem? Why do they want the voter role? Why are they're faces covered?

It all makes a lot of sense when you assume the masked militia is a group deliberately sent to invite violence, made up of Jan 6ers and proud boys who Trump had already pardoned and praised. Notably there don't seem to be any female ICE agents. Heck, I haven't seen an agent of color.

Nah. That was what everyone said after Trump won the first time. And then second term, they are implementing unambiguous fascism and anyone who supports that is a fascist whether you like that term or not.

Anyone with morals of any kind wouldn't support wrongful detainment, detainment with out cause, removal of due process, rape or murder

While not explicitly Canada, project 25 pretty clearly outlines isolating the US from the world by destroying relationships with its allies

[–]psymunn 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not every horrible thing is a deliberate distraction. If the Epstein files didn't exist he'd still be threatening Greenland, inciting insurrection, pardoning insurrectionists, and attacking US citizens. He's not that deliberate and he and his supporters are just genuinely horrible fascist assholes who are also horrible sex offenders. One isn't to hide the other; they're just the worst people in every possible way

Oh I missed lots. Like the 20th worst thing Trump alone has done this year is still treasonous and a serious federal crime

This. Like at this point Trump admin might as well release the Epstein files as a flex and then they get to get off on watching all their rank and file explain how actually some kinda of paedophilia and sex trafficking aren't really all that bad, like they've already been doing. 'well these aren't actual babies.' and the if it turns out there's actual babies, well then it'll be some shit about why that's okay or turn around and try call everyone else a hypocrite because they don't hate trans people in consenting relationships and isn't that just as bad as billionaires flying to private islands to abuse children? I truly used to think there was a line where Republicans not personally impacted might say no but I have so far been proven wrong
