Online? Dictatorship. Let the guidelines be clear and the conversations civil and on topic. If my speech isn’t wanted in a particular community I can find another, or make another where I’m the dictator.
IRL? Democracy. It sucks, but it’s better than everything else. I do, however, wish there were better laws forcing media to be locally owned, and bound to be truthful. And some way to keep late stage capitalism’s hand off the scales.
American “dairy” doesn’t usually qualify as food under Canadian law. Too many steroids and antibiotics.
100% truth. It’s the same intergenerational trauma causing this, and that this is causing.
Isreal had a unique opportunity to “turn the other cheek” and be a good neighbour, even while Palestine was fighting them, and they instead choose the evil path.
Ya, this is one of those times where I’m hoping they both lose. Both leaders houses and their entire cabinets get bombed to rubble while the innocent civilians evade all damage.
Really hope we go with the Gripens instead.
People went to Qatar to sit in slave-built stadiums. Don’t expect any morals from FIFA fans.
This is why Canadians won’t cross the border. The US is no longer a safe country to visit. Innocent people being thrown in to concentration camps and shipped off to El Salvadore to die… Thanks, but no thanks. Ima go to France this holiday instead. Nice and safe over there.
There’s a lot of “chocolate” in the US that doesn’t qualify as chocolate in sane countries because it has too much wax or other additives in it. US “chocolate” bar in Canada has to be called a “candy” bar.
Same way their “milk” has too much other garbage in it to qualify as “milk” in Canada.
Lindt, otoh, is /actual/ chocolate. So it’s seen as luxurious.
That’s inevitable if the squabbling children over there don’t collectively pull their heads out of their asses. Some religious nutters, Jewish or Muslim, is going to glaze over the whole fucking area because their imaginary friend told them to.
At least then the atrocities from both sides will stop. Overall, it’ll probably be less innocent deaths than will be caused by a few more centuries of those ignorant savages clawing at each other’s throats.
This. Only the server owner needs a plexpass.
Fascists gonna fash!
Fascists gonna fash.
I know it’s a slim chance and I’m going out on a limb here, but something tells me the driver was a white conservative.
Not sure I agree that it’s sinophobic. Acknowledging that Trump has literally handed a narrow race to China due to the Republican hatred/gutting of science doesn’t seem 'phobic to me…
Justice would be to have his ass thrown in prison and all his assets, including the house, transferred to this woman. Also, let the general population of the priso know that he liked to watch kids use the bathroom.
Lol, no. We don’t need a Heritage Foundation puppet like they have in the US.
You really think PP has the spine to stand up to Trump? He’s a puppet for the Heritage Foundation just like half the conservatives down south.
Conservatism is an epically failed viewpoint.
I can understand your desire for change, to be fair. But you see what happened in the US when they went that way? Same shit show up here if PP gets in.
What does the US produce that the EU needs? Shitty superhero movies and Google Ads don’t count…

Online spaces are limitless, basically. If you don’t like living under someone else’s rules it’s dead easy to spin up your own space with your own rules. The dictatorship-ness of these virtual spaces keeps then semi-civil and on-topic. Ideally, at least. We are talking spherical cows here, obvs.
Real life spaces, not so easy to spin up your own country. So we have to use a political system that (on paper, at least) caters to the majority without stepping on the minorities too much.
