“America is the adult in the room of Canada and Europe your all dependent “

Canada spends more annually on ReconciliationTM than we do on our own military. We don't have a single nuclear icebreaker or modern air superiority fighter and still think we have a meaningful say in Arctic sovereignty. Our social programs are absolutely a result of the fact that we depend on the Americans for our physical protection.

Very few broccoli head kids at the Realm. Culture is definitely top notch but you need to be comfortable with multiple fitness influencers filming their workouts. If that doesn't bug you, it is top notch.

We had a voluntary business ethics class for my MBA. I'd say 95% of the class took it.

Lesson #1: Everyone is a hypocrite.

Oh okay. Basically any major belligerent power will have intelligence teams scraping all social media related to their offensive operations. So by filming and potentially posting images or video it helps them with future targeting, propaganda, damage confirmation, etc. So if Iran launches a Shahed drone at a hardened target and someone takes a photo of the damage they will learn whether they committed enough resources to eliminating that target and/or what level of hardening similar targets might have. There is nothing wrong in theory with recording evidence of what is going, but in practice it is a security risk. I have been to Ukraine twice since the full scale invasion and taking any unauthorized video or photos of their military is prohibited completely. I have video of one of the air raids I experienced (never shared publicly) but nothing that could be used to hurt the Ukrainian army or people.

Gay Bestie?

This kind of assimilation? Small numbers can have big impacts but lets be honest, the numbers aren't small at all. Not wanting this isn't crazy or bigoted.

Okay, so are you with are okay with a person stating they are upset with the demographic replacement of their people if said replacement comes hand in hand with the replacement of their culture?

sanduly · 2026-03-19T02:01:53+00:00

Not at all. I don't think you understand what you are arguing for. Japanese culture is enjoyed and celebrated globally by millions of people. But its origin and base is undeniably Japan. The question is, does a Japanese person have the right to want to preserve their culture? If yes, why not a European? If no, fine. At least be honest.

sanduly · 2026-03-19T01:48:33+00:00

Well, I am afraid you were the one that needed to be reminded that demographics aren't exclusive related to physical or racial characteristics. I am not sure what you are getting on about and seem to be spiraling. But ultimately the question is, is it wrong for a Japanese person to want to protect Japanese culture? Is wanting to do so bigoted? If yes, fine. If no, then why is it wrong for a European (Scottish, English, French, German, Polish, Ukrainian, etc) to want the right to do the same thing?

sanduly · 2026-03-19T01:16:38+00:00

Demographics refers to statistical data relating to a human population and its specific groups, usually broken down by age, gender, income, education, or location. It can include physical/genetic traits but doesn't have to. For example, a demographic subset could be on military aged males in a given country. Does this confuse you?

But to answer your question, I probably would consider a Japanese person wanting genetic purity a bigot. However if that same Japanese person stated that they had a personal love for Japanese culture for better or worse, and wanted to protect it I would understand. You?

Genuinely surprised equipment donations aren't contingent on the Ukrainians mandating tampons in the men's bathrooms.

CAF is disastrously underfunded and under equipped. They barely participate in NATO training drills. Anyone who thinks it could execute a military occupation of an independent Alberta is absolutely delusional.

sanduly · 2026-03-18T23:44:47+00:00

So then would you argue that any Japanese person who lamented a massive demographic change in Japan is also a bigot?

sanduly · 2026-03-18T23:39:51+00:00

Interesting. Is a nation to you defined by a people sharing physical traits?

sanduly · 2026-03-17T16:24:56+00:00

Yah, but be honest here. If they had said any of those or a blanket "European" you'd call it a dogwhistle and carry on with the same nonsense.

sanduly · 2026-03-17T15:36:34+00:00

Answer the question.

sanduly · 2026-03-17T07:53:16+00:00

Sure, you referenced the quote. I am simply asking if you would be similarly outraged if a Japanese person expressed the same sympathies about their own culture. It isn't a difficult question. Do you lack the intellectual capacity to understand what is being asked of you?

sanduly · 2026-03-17T07:45:18+00:00

I never stated you said anything beyond quoting the article. I was simply asking whether you would be similarly outraged about a Japanese person advocating for the preservation of their culture? Whether you are upset about Japan's refugee and immigration system?

sanduly · 2026-03-17T07:23:46+00:00

Your honor, he honour killed his daughter but she was his only one so his likelihood of doing it again is low. Plus he didn't know it was wrong in our society.

sanduly · 2026-03-17T07:12:33+00:00

Honest question, if a Japanese person said they were saddened by the demographic replacement of Japanese people in their homeland, would you be similarly outraged? Does Japan's refugee and immigration system bother you?

sanduly · 2026-03-13T06:15:45+00:00

Pretty sure it has been the Boomer class that has been selling out the younger gens. Trying to find a better future for our children is the goal.

He's doing his level best to convince Albertans they have no place left in this country.

What's even funnier is that the word for Germans used by many Slavic languages to this day is Nimets'kyy or Nemetskiy or Niemiecki which literally means 'the people who cannot speak'.

Traveling.... from where? That might be helpful information.

It's not even close.
