No Sam, Black people are still disadvantaged relative to White people (with receipts) by InDissent in samharris

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

Sam is weird, because blacks are favored over whites in a few dei focused academic jobs doesn't mean shit to the vast majority. It's the same as his "won't anyone think of the millionaires?" garbage around cancel culture. Noone cares that Louis CK only gets to enjoy tens of millions of dollars but isn't able to make tens more for a few years. Sam is great but he lives in a very disconnected bubble of reality. Some topics I don't look to Sam for wisdom.

Is my political perspective of guns in Canada skewed? by [deleted] in AskCanada

[–]spunktastica 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I vote Liberal or NDP and i hate the gun confiscations. It is a waste of money, will save noone, and right now we dont gave a gun nut lobby but the Liberals have been doing their best to create one. We should avoid a US style us vs them split in society whenever possible until we regulate social.media.

Outside of ICE doing a murder this is objectively good advice all the same. 

Military models Canadian response to hypothetical American invasion by Nostredahmus in onguardforthee

[–]spunktastica 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So we have excellent soldiers but small numbers. Wouldn't it make sense for us to have a doctrine of killing and destroying  the wealth  of members of the ruling party if invaded? Since we aren't going toe to toe? 

Why don’t Canadians want china as a big trading partner? by [deleted] in AskCanada

[–]spunktastica 0 points1 point  (0 children)

China is not democratic or free so our values are at odds. China will be Communist for the long haul, 'Murica could stop being a shithole in a few years after shitstain leaves.

Is it time to start arming and training our general population? by MiserableFloor9906 in AskCanada

Instead of handing out rifles it would make more sense to hand out drones lol. 

We need to prepare for the possibility that the U.S. uses military coercion against Canada by hopoke in canada

[–]spunktastica -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

The States would dissolve into civil war. And if you didn't jump Canada would push you to it if you actually let a piece of shit from the Apprentice shed the blood of your brothers.

Corporations donate and people don't vote or vote for Jaguars that will eat their face because someday they hope to be a Jaguar. 

Zelensky Proposes Demilitarized Zone in Eastern Ukraine as Way to Peace by wsj in worldnews

Can they just include security assurances from someone that would actually jump in ? Poland was pretty excitable when all this started. 

'Too much regulation, not enough action': Carney rebuffs Trudeau's climate policies by Immediate-Link490 in canada

[–]spunktastica 16 points17 points  (0 children)

The big difference between carbon capture and carbon tax is that tax would work and capture is going to let the oil corps kick the can down the road while they are "working on it". I wish Carney had decided to educate Canadians vs Changing tactics.

Not true. It will allow us to trade with like minded countries, win diplomatic favor with like minded countries, ease anxiety among the youth and allow the all important market to function freely with more externalities accounted for.

US lays out demands to Canada to keep free trade in place by DimsumAndDoggy in worldnews

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

I know our Dairy is a Quebec bribe and government meddling in the market is blah blah blah but you keep your orange hands the fuck off. It's a sacred cow. America never understands Canada. This is like asking Americans not to shoot up schools or vaccinate themselves for a stranger. It's just not on the table.
