Goddamn, that was impressive, you can tell there’s a lot of real enthusiasm there. He went so much deeper than I expected, I even learned a couple of things despite using Linux for 5+ years now. Great to see Linux being pushed to non-tech audiences.

Yes, pretty easy - that’s exactly how I use it

👍

Lmao. Who told you I have “nothing but hate” for the country? You talk like you know me. I hate your mainstream political parties and the people who bend over backwards to do genocide apologetics, especially when we know that in a few decades, a lot of those people will tut-tut at “our past mistakes” and do some land acknowledgements style performative bullshit. There’s plenty about Canada and specific Canadians I very much like. But of course it’s easier for you to dehumanize people with “they hate us cause they anus” rhetoric like most right wingers love to do.

Side note: By the way, I came here for career and economic opportunities above all else (opportunities that my country didn’t have because of your dear UK whose inbred pedo leaders you still feature on your currency, and the US who you’re basically a colony of). It was a pure business transaction - your government gets much needed immigrants and an infusion of tax money, inflated tuition fees, and living expenses into their economy, and I get to be here. I have no obligation to “like” or be “loyal” to anyone (the whole premise of having loyalty for a capitalist country is questionable anyways). Despite all that, I do feel those things to some extent because that’s just human nature I guess. Your country is not owed any of it.

Not sure yet, maybe nothing but we’ll see. Still waiting for your explanation as to why I should leave.

Why? Explain your reasoning in detail please. And don’t forget to mention what your ancestry is.

Who told you that pro-Palestine people voted for Trump? Choosing not to vote for Harris is not the same as voting against her.

And I don’t need to compare Carney to other party leaders because we all know that Polievre is pro-genocide - it goes without saying. I have no hope of ever convincing conservatives - they are too far gone. Liberals are supposedly the “good side” which is why their hypocrisy needs to be called out.

To make it clear again: I do NOT support the cons and implying I do is a strawman.

Not voting, I’m a Permanent Resident who was under the illusion that Canada had moved on from the days of residential schools. Equal rights, humanity and all that turned out to be a load of bullshit.

Edit: If I could vote, idk. If no one can take a principled stance on what should be an extremely obvious issue, then nobody.

So, your answer to preventing the rise of fascism in Canada is to do exactly what the Democrats did in the US. How did that work out for them? If you actually want to see the Conservatives lose, you should demand the Liberals actually do better instead of compromising on something as fundamental as whether or not to support a Holocaust. That’s what you are doing right now, calling people out for saying “I will not vote for either of the Holocaust parties.” You may personally be willing to sacrifice a few hundred thousand brown people on the other side of the planet for the sake of slightly better domestic policies, but many will not cross that line. Trying to sway them with bullshit “lesser of two evils” nonsense will not work.

Obviously, things in Canada are different - we don’t have nearly as much of a role to play as the US does in genocide, and the population is also less right wing overall. But that just makes it even weirder that you’d respond so negatively to the simple true statement that “Carney supports genocide” - it is objectively true and stating it isn’t even realistically going to change anything. The more I interact with libs the more it feels like they don’t even believe their own “lesser of 2 evils” stance, they just genuinely don’t care about murder supported by their money as long as it happens far enough away.

I feel your pain. Aside from being slow as balls despite modern hardware, my Windows PC has a habit of occasionally locking up when I RIGHT CLICK on something T_T

Then it takes several minutes of no start menu/task bar, no trackpad gestures, no file explorer, etc before everything goes back to normal… for a few seconds before explorer crashes again. The only solution is a reboot.

I’m genuinely scared of doing anything on this machine.
