You said “It’s not surprising.” As a statement of fact. As you wrote it, it offers no leeway for an argument or an opinion and that means you are saying I’m wrong.

The way I see it… in my mind… I don’t think…I think that… You didn’t say these any countless ways to allow for my opinion to be anything other than wrong.

You chose words that didn’t allow for any other opinions in direct response to me clearly stating an experience i am currently having and have held for decades.

That’s pretty rude. Unintentional or not, that’s what you did with your word choice, or lack there of.

This is text, you have the responsibility to clearly say what you mean. You chose not to

I said it’s bizarre to me.

You said it’s not that surprising.

Do you understand the difference in our 2 opinions?

Mine is a personal opinion, while you arrogantly tell me I’m wrong to express my personal experience.

Think about that for a second while you reread our 2 comments.

Your choice for words determines how people understand you.

It’s so still so bizarre to me that a social justice warrior is supposedly like a bad thing.

I’ve come to understand it as is used, but on its own I still expect people who are hearing it for the first time being like hey that sounds pretty awesome, someone who fights for social justice in this shit hole world

I just assumed he meant skin colour, not actually dirt/trash in the streets.

You know, the racist way to phrase it, which I simply assume this Republican is being in front of other Republicans(racists)

If you read the comment im referencing then that is quite the simplification of what his trip meant to him

That’s not the one, keep looking

You uh, didn’t use metacrawler, Altavista, ask Jeeves, yahoo, or Google(back in the day) much did you?

The internet has been more content than a human can experience in a lifetime since it was brought to the masses, and probably even before the pentium was created and a oc3 line was the dream of every computer nerd and geek

I replied to the wrong comment and can’t find it now. I clicked on a comment that was similar

Read the fucking article you dumb ass or enjoy the god damned egg all over your face

He has a pretty good reason for being there in the first place. There is nothing wrong with having a good enough reason to go there. As long as you aren’t a coward about it.

The article explains well what happened and i believe it shows his integrity.

If you don’t believe me then keep scrolling the comments here to find out why he had a good reason to be there in the first place.

A willingness to honor your commitments is not something we discourage. And not allowing yourself to be used to promote and be promoted by a terrible regime by sacrificing something you have committed to, openly and transparently is also something we should probably take good note of.

No. Polycules should also be allowed to own homes. If we are changing the rules then let’s fix this as well

Companies shouldn’t be allowed to own housing

But like on ALL their properties not just the excess ones

Sweet summer child…

He will rebuild it all in his own image(of course), then someone will ask Canada to go burn down the white house again, and there will be a Terry Fox Torch bearing marathon to welcome the Canadians to complete the mission by all the Americans that understand the absolute blight that is this administration.

Then I’ll wake up and it will all have been a pleasant dream

Fuck the Olympics. It hasn’t been anything other than a corporate entity intent on making money above all else in almost a hundred years. IOC tramples on the rights of many people every day and the entirety of the organization can burn in hell

Time and money. People have been losing those 2 things since whatever post ww2 economic upward mobility boom busted.

People cannot be made to spend the entirety of their time on this planet fighting fights they didn’t start. Even spending your entire life fighting one cause can be moot if there isn’t enough will behind it

It’s not a surprise at all that the current status quo is undoing decades of progress and landing everyone right back into a pile of shit that’s harder to get yourself out of without becoming exactly like the people who put others there. It’s the only way to get out of that situation without getting lucky.

Billionaires are born or had a lot of luck and support to get where they are. A trillionaire is such a fucking bad sign of things it’s insane to think this is the moment in history we are witnesses to

What you have going for you is that your state’s are much more individuals. By design. It well may be too late for your union, but individual states can still make good decisions if there’s the will of the people.

I won’t be surprised if at some point soon{2028 possibly…)that other nations no longer recognize the US as a whole and starts recognizing states as independent. Probably won’t happen I’m not holding my breath but it would make a lot of sense in a worst case scenario/pessimistic perspective

Sadly it’s trending more and more like that, America has always had that kind of effect on Canada so not a new thing but a culmination and acceleration of it

They are too chicken shit to actually make a strong move though. They will bluster a lot a lot stopping these things but will cave as soon as someone says hey want to try again to talk about this?

Ford is a corrupt POS and Carney is about as predictable as every banker ever has been. We don’t have strong leadership willing to actually make a commitment to Canadians.

As as sad as depressing as that is, we are better off than the alternative that was Pierre Polievre
