Being okay with genocide as long as you have other interests you don’t wish to risk by taking a stand against it is kinda basically “complicit”, isn’t it?
My gender is my concern, but you may use any pronoun to refer to me

lol cope harder
Naaah, just privatized suicide services. Oh wait, we have those, we call them long term care.
How is this in any way difficult to grasp?
UW administration hates its students.
He used his authority and position in the community to sexually exploit someone who was vulnerable and IN HIS FUCKING CARE BECAUSE THEY WERE A VULNERABLE PERSON. You’re being such an asshole right now, how can you not understand that.
When there is a power dynamic, what might in another context be a simple conflict between two equal people completely changes in nature.
You just fucking said you weren’t making a legal argument, that the term was not defined in the law in the relevant jurisdiction. But now that you realize you’ve crawled out too far on a shaky limb, you’re still turning to “it’s not my opinion, it’s just the law!”
Doesn’t work that way.
That’s exploiting a power dynamic to force themself sexually on an unwilling person. That’s rape. Laws don’t define words, it does not matter what the definition of the crime of the same name is, that woman was raped.
I don’t know what you mean. What is “the other thing?” I didn’t reference any such. The existence of government management over alcohol and its taxation does not necessarily mean that money has to become “addictive” by going into general revenue. If the exploitation of vulnerable people is to be avoided, this money must go to strictly to dealing with the societal and personal effects of alcohol.
The same goes for government involvement with gambling.
As much as I hate that this is just unabashed kleptocracy dumping public funds into corporate coffers, I don’t think it’s good that the state is addicted to ruining people’s lives for revenue and I’m kind of glad to see a shift here. But, not like this…
It’s not up to you to decide what that means. They are allowed and empowered to decide for themselves what “being Canadian” means. And if it means staying the fuck away from you and never, ever interacting, well that makes perfect fucking sense from where I sit.
Funny how there is no alternative method of reducing or reversing the growing wealth disparity presented. The class of people who have done better than not only every other Canadian but virtually everyone else on Earth since the last world war that they ALSO profited from is telling us it is unfair to them while a growing number of people cannot eat and house themselves any longer. The very reason people cannot afford to survive is because the top is taking a larger portion of our productivity every single year.
Oh, leave people not harming anyone alone. They are not obliged to play with you if they don’t want to, grow up and deal with it.
Like his word would be worth anything.

Pipsqueak is one of the Conservative Horsemen of the Apocalypse. Like the Biblical Horsemen, everything he says and does is bad. Everything that is good that he touches withers and dies.
Pipsqueak, who Harper actually named minister of state for democratic reform, is in fact one of the most despicable, loathsome politicians to ever grace the national stage. He is a pestilence made flesh.
A refresher: Pipsqueak is the Conservative MP who famously joked about “tar babies” in the House of Commons, a derogatory term to describe blacks. He is the MP who attacked Harper for compensating aboriginal residential schools victims, opining that what those lazy natives needed was “hard work.” He is the MP who told his fellow MPs “f— you guys,” and then later said he would “confiscate” the tape of the occasion.
He is the Conservative MP who can always be counted upon to do the bidding of the adolescents in PMO. He is the MP who even big-C Conservative commentators, like the Ottawa Citizen’s Randy Denley, say is the poster child of “red-necked bigots” in his Nepean-Carleton riding. Ouch.
There is more, much more, but you get the point. Pipsqueak Pierre Poilievre is a disgrace to Parliament. He is a joke. And whatever Harper may have accomplished with his shuffle was unalterably diminished by the promotion of Pipsqueak.
I guess everyone gets a turn eventually when the talent pool is that shallow.
Do you not know the difference between an example and a definition?
Poor people don’t need cars. So it saves a lot of money.
Thanks for letting me know you have made the migration so I can block you immediately.
It might be hard, but they did it. /r/Canada used to be a great community. It was attacked, invaded, and destroyed. This post is tongue-in-cheek, but if there is any significant Reddit migration, I don’t doubt that the community really will be attacked.
