Yup OK ? You just keep reproving my point "Never argue with an id iot, they'll only bring you down to their level & beat you with experience" and you do.....again and again and again LOL

No, I think you’re accepting political leadership that has been bought off and is entrenched. If you wish to dismiss legitimate criticism of government as conspiracy theory or “anti-vaxer” or fringe, that game is wearing very thin.

https://www.foxnews.com/media/north-carolina-pastor-eviscerates-woke-school-board-perverted-library-book-sinister North Carolina pastor eviscerates 'woke' school board for 'perverted' library book: 'This is sinister' A North Carolina pastor is sounding the alarm on a sexually explicit book available to children after he was interrupted during a heated school board meeting while trying to read a passage from the text. Rev. John Amanchukwu slammed officials sitting on the Asheville City School Board of Education Monday for making the controversial book depicting various sexual acts available in school libraries. "If you don't want to hear it in a school board meeting, why should children be able to check it out of the school system?" he said after officials cut him off when reading from the book. "We have perverts that are perverting our kids, and you all sit back, smug in your chairs and celebrate diversity, equity and inclusion, but you want me to read it, so you can hear it." Here's a section of that meeting. And the downs syndrome retards here give Florida Governor DeSantis grief because he doesn't want those books in school libraries.

Add outright sanctions for human rights abuse. Canada should have started down this road while building a trading coalition/bloc of similarly minded countries decades ago. And all the while pushing hard on a zero emission goal. That said there's no time like the present to get started on the human rights side but it's likely way to late to to stop the unfolding of a climate crisis.

It's the only way they can win elections.

Do you even know what you're talking about or just pulling on a cliche to excuse floundering instead of dealing with my response? You stated the colonizers were not pleasant people. By our own standards of today, at least. I merely put that in the context of the world in which they lived. Who invaded whom? Why, whoever had the power to do so. Invasions and wars were frequent throughout Africa prior to the coming of the White man, as was slavery. There was no such thing as respect for borders, much less human rights. Any more than there was in India prior to the coming of the Europeans. Brutality and slaughter reigned supreme. Your antipathy seems to be directed at the white colonizers because they were better at it than others, at least toward the end. And of course, they themselves decided the practice was not moral and so abandoned it. What other imperial colonizer or power ever did that throughout all of history?

Would be a better analogy if Johnny and 100 of his friends were pissing all over the pool deck while you're forced to hold it in until your bladder explodes. If we're going to go through pain to make our economy green, we can't leave easy loopholes that just export our production and pollution where the rules don't apply. ?‍♂️

"His" as in your man crush on Putin?

They should just truthfully advertise how fascist our country is now... We'd have reverse birth tourism. People would be flying to Saudi Arabia to give birth.

Exactly. Bring up what I said in this thread only, if fighting my words on the subject at hand. You're otherwise fighting below the belt, if you can't pick apart the argument itself being brought up in that very thread. If your only means to win a debate is to bring up prior ones, then accept you suck at debating, and my ex wife is single. She used to model, so may be a perfect fit for someone like that. If am that bad, it should be a cakewalk to pick me apart each thread. Pointing to me not liking to be faced with something, is one doing the exact same thing they are accusing me of o_O in my calling out their behavior and dismissing their posts. I love a heated debate. Just don't bring bulls*** from other threads to mud sling and then get your panties soiled when you get return fire. The irony of him calling me the worst type of poster.

So much time spent on me and I don't care. As a wise man told me "Never argue with an id iot, they'll only bring you down to their level & beat you with experience" and you are sure proof of that. LOL But hey..... Yup OK ?

It's been a few days and I've given this some thought. To be clear, I believe in inequality. here's why I do. As I said, if everyone is equal then everyone is poor. What happens then, and communist countries have shown this over and over again, is corruption takes over. There is no market discipline...no rules to the game. In the end the poor just get more poor because no one has the incentive to create wealth because it must be just stolen. Venezuela has oil riches greater than Canada and just look at what socialism (equality) has done to them. With inequality, a few people/companies create wealth. Poor people who work hard succeed and gain wealth as well. The leader of Singapore said they have two resources, people and hard work, and with that they have become successful. So making Alberta poor with Equalization will not make Ontario, Quebec and the Maritimes rich...we will all just be poor. I have a saying that goes; if you want people to have nothing then you give them everything and if you want them to have everything then you give them nothing.

Biden is a weak president who overcompensates for his unwillingness to take a reasonable centrist position against the radical left extreme of his party by “going toe to toe with Putin” and pouring billions into the Ukrainian bloodbath with no clear realistic goal. He couldn’t even attempt diplomacy because he can’t forge a working relationship with Putin that could end the war. His family appears to be in the pay of foreign governments, and like many in the swamp, he has been bought by the companies that fund party campaigns. Apart from more borrowing to spend on unaffordable programs, especially military, what has this government accomplished? Don’t worry, if Biden is pushed through as leader by the Democrat Party, Trump will probably be president.

Homophobia is seeing a massive resurgence in 2023.

Biden is easy for the bureaucrats to control. He's absent minded and dumb as a stump. All he cares about is that he got to reside in the Whitehouse as POTUS. The rest is scripted for him and he botches that consistently. RFK Jr. is the best choice the Democrats have in their stable.

It's clear she's the inevitable choice. I hear she intends to decriminalize all drugs as per Vancouver and other places. Disaster is on the way.

Just another attack on the pillars of society.

Some of these concerns are legitimate, other ones are being blown out of proportion for political reasons. In terms of the Catholic faith, things are definitely changing. Now the faith is not immutable, however the line between loving The sinner and loving the sin is becoming blurry.

DeSantis is rational and rolling back the radical left that is destroying America, at least in Florida. Biden is a reckless warmonger who has turned over all authority to the radical left. He is the big pharma establishment. He represents the unaccountable union of government and corporate power. RFK is honest and pushing back against narratives that are destroying the West. He sees the hypocrisy and destruction in Ukraine. It’s pitiful for US democracy that Biden is being sealed off from debate within his own party because his own party doesn’t think he’s mentally fit to debate. Is this who you want as your president? If RFK is left out of the running and Biden is handed the Democrat leadership, Trump will win the presidential election. Given the current state of the union, he probably should.

Gosh. Let's talk more about vaccine conspiracies, please.

I totally backed the lockdown (and quite enjoyed it). But was I just a mug? (thetimes.co.uk) The UK author who wrote the above piece is a bit of a rightwing shock-jock, but at least he admits his opinion changed and it is in a non-tabloid newspaper. My wife remarked to me, in March 2020: “It’s all shite, all of it. None of it will make a difference. It’s about control. And it will go on for ages.” Nonsense, my dear — it will all be over by September, and this is simply a case of ensuring the frailest of us survive, I assured her. What a terrible thing it is to have to admit, in a national newspaper, that one’s wife was absolutely right, on all counts, and that I was wrong. The government was right too. The ministers, including the prime minister, and the civil servants took not the slightest notice of their own advice. They partied like it was 2019. They were happy to pass on the fatuous injunctions from Sage to the plebs and to ensure that transgressors were fined or shamed or both — but they knew it was all bollocks. This is, I think, at least half of the reason the public is so angry about partygate: we are angry at ourselves for being mugs and doing exactly as we were bidden. Yes, we might despise the arrogance and entitlement of Johnson and co, but the real vexation is with ourselves. And the horrible implication that the nutters, the extremists — the people we rather pompously derided and later silenced altogether — were right all along.

I know, right? ? That Cureus article about the German study is the first one I've seen that specifically ties excess mortality to the jabs, not the virus. Most every study tip-toes around it and some scientists have said they silently fume because they have to put the obligatory "the jabs are wonderful and saved lives" line in their studies or it won't get published at all. The Europeans are way ahead of us on "the science".

Because he doesn't have to keep going back to the Middle East for western news commentary...for a start. At least this time we can safely assume your news source wasn't financed by the Iranian Republican Guard, so you're making progress.

Possible cancer-causing capacity of COVID-19: Is SARS-CoV-2 an oncogenic agent? - PMC (nih.gov) A peer-reviewed, pre-released article intended for publication in the journal Biochimie became available online this week, titled “Possible cancer-causing capacity of COVID-19: Is SARS-CoV-2 an oncogenic agent?” The editors didn’t say WHY it was so dang important to rush it to print before it was ready. But that will become clear if you stay with me. The article is very dense and still needs some editing for clarity. It seems like the author’s first language is not English. A note from the editors at the top of the article recognizes these problems, but says that due to the importance of the subject matter, they wanted to get it out even while they’re still editing. Peer-review is already done. In this paper we learn about a category of diseases called “oncogenic viruses.” Oncogenic means tending to cause cancer. Notably, HIV is considered an oncogenic virus, as are herpes, leukemia virus, and hepatitis B and C. In the article’s “highlights” section, this sentence leaps off the page: Which proteins? It never gets around to saying WHICH covid protein has all the oncogenic properties. Which is weird. What do you want to bet the “protein” is Spike? That’s my bet. And I’ll explain why they probably obscured that fact. But stay with me for now. The authors begin by noting that SARS-CoV-1 — the virus’ prior version from ten years ago — was never linked to cancer. It doesn’t promote cancer growth. So all the pro-cancer features described in the article are brand new to SARS-CoV-2. Nature was super busy working on this one! The authors say it’s too soon to connect covid-19 to cancer, because we haven’t had a decade of study yet. Their point was that covid — coincidentally — shares certain unique features with other oncogenic viruses like HIV and hepatitis, suggesting there WILL be a link between covid and cancer: The article discusses the 3 oncogenic mechanisms of covid. 2 of the mechanisms are related to inflammation. Covid-19’s “proteins” don’t just have ONE pro-cancer pathway, which would have been remarkable, but there are at least THREE and covid’s mystery “protein” is a witches’ brew of features found in other oncogenic viruses: Whoever designed the virus — nature, Chinese bioweapons engineers, or Fauci and that guy from North Carolina — TRIPLED the ways that covid could encourage cancer cells to grow and flourish in the body. The organ systems that are at particular risk are: the lungs, the colon, pancreas, breasts, mouth & throat. In the Conclusion, they refer to "malignant neoplasms" - AKA cancerous tumors: Why did the editors rush this article out so quickly as a pre-release? Could it be because *this* paper ALSO came out this week? 20230523-18780-kpzba5.pdf (cureus.com) In this peer-reviewed article you’ll be shocked when you see what the researchers suggested was the possible mechanism to explain the unprecedented levels of mortality. The researchers were surprised to find NO excess death in 2020 — the most intense year of the pandemic — but to find 100,000 extra people unexpectedly died in 2021 and 2022. A hundred thousand is a lot of folks, especially in a country about the size of Montana with only 83 million citizens. Hmmmmmm........Something happened. Something! Something in Spring 2021...... Why don’t they just say it? Oh, wait! They finally do. (I'll save you from the narcoleptic maths in the study....) The same "flawed safety analysis" that many doctors and scientists have tried for 2 years now to get the CDC to acknowledge, too. Many have sent urgent reports and emails to the CDC urging them to examine their system because the "death" safety signal was actually triggered almost immediately following the vax rollout. The CDC has so far ignored this. But I digress. There's more: Did you catch that? The non-highlighted part? “The obvious hypothesis of a decrease in excess mortality with an increasing number of vaccinated persons, is not correct.” What they’re saying is, the data shows that the jabs DON’T WORK. We already know the jabs don’t stop infections, nobody is even arguing about that debunked lie now. What they’re saying is that the data doesn’t even show that the jabs reduced deaths. The German researchers are rightly pointing out that the vaccines appear to have INCREASED all-cause mortality. A vaccine that lowers your risk of dying from covid a little, but increases your risk of dying from cancer a lot......well, it's up to you, I guess. Excess mortality is finally becoming impossible to ignore: it’s been elevated for two consecutive years now - all over the world, but only in highly vaccinated countries. Two years during which the miraculous jabs had their chance to do their work but failed, and the link to the vaccines is looking a lot like an obvious candidate for the deaths, as the German researchers properly noticed. So here is where the narrative makers are likely going to try and pull a(nother) quick psyop on us: They need a way to blame the excess deaths on something besides the jabs. It needs to be compelling. It needs to be airtight. It needs to be distracting. So they’ll probably have to use something true. The hastily approved, quickly peer-reviewed Biochimie study on covid’s oncogenic properties offers covidians a handy-dandy explanation for both the excess deaths and the timing problems. If they can show covid causes cancer — and I believe it can — then they can attribute the excess deaths to the virus! And the lag making the excess deaths LOOK attributable to the vaccines can also be attributed to the lag time required for cancer to develop and be diagnosed — and remember, the hospitals were deferring cancer screenings. Let's unpack that one now: "deferred cancer screenings." I followed Ethical Skeptic almost from the beginning. You should, too. Here's his website: The Ethical Skeptic - Challenging Pseudo-Skepticism, its Agency and Cultivated Ignorance Ethical Skeptic has been reporting on the latest neoplasm figures every couple weeks for years. Ethical consistently reports a steady increase in neoplasms since a few months following the rollout of the jabs — except for a few types of cancer that have helpfully remained flat, allowing us to rule out “deferred treatment” as the cause for the types of increasing cancers. In other words, if the cause was deferred screenings, then we’d expect to see ALL types of cancer increasing. Not just certain types. One of Ethical’s most compelling charts exposes the rapid increase in spending on medical treatments for “neoplasms” (cancer) since the jabs were introduced to the population: A few days ago, at the Third Annual European Union International COVID Summit, Dr. Cole reported (again) on all the anecdotal clinical evidence showing skyrocketing rates of “unexpected” neoplasms. At one point he asked the medical attendees to raise their hands if they were experiencing unparalleled rates of new cancer diagnoses in their practices. Dr. Cole said half the audience raised their hands. Dr. Cole also referenced Ethical Skeptic’s findings: https://twitter.com/ChrisGreece48/status/1659829360134615040?s=20 Confirming both Dr. Cole and Ethical Skeptic, note the following article that published in MedScape in November 2022: Cancer Drug Shortages Continuing and Increasing (medscape.com) The article tried blaming the problem on greedy drugmakers, but once the reader slices through the noise, what they’re really saying is that increased demand has gobbled up all the low-cost generic cancer drugs, so all that’s remaining are expensive branded substitutes. Increased demand. What would cause increased demand for cancer drugs? Remember Ethical Skeptic’s chart on cancer drug expenditures, which seems to confirm higher purchases of the more expensive branded options after generics ran out. That’s three sources all confirming unprecedented rates of cancers. But the point isn’t that cancers — especially turbo cancers — are exploding. We already knew that. The point is: the data is getting undeniable. They can’t keep denying it’s happening and they won’t be able to ignore it much longer. The giveaway is that the Biochimie study never once mentioned the spike protein, instead generically referring to “covid proteins.” Why obscure the role of spike? It’s unbelievable that a highly-accurate, peer-reviewed article like this one, which goes into mind-numbing detail about all the specific genes and microscopic components of the oncogenic EFFECTS of the covid proteins, never actually gets around to which genetic parts of the “covid proteins” are oncogenic. It’s like they’re not even curious. Why not mention the spike? There’s a good reason. BECAUSE THE JABS PRODUCE BILLIONS MORE SPIKE THAN THE VIRUS. If the spike protein IS oncogenic, then jabbed people are far more at risk of cancer than are naturally infected people. In an infected person, spike hangs out in the body for around eight days. In a jabbed person, spike is being steadily produced for at least four months, and maybe much longer, especially if people keep getting boosted. In other words, any elevated cancer risk caused by covid infections only lasts a few days. But elevated cancer risk from the jabs will last for months or even years. The bottom line is, they can’t talk about spike without hauling the jabs into the discussion. So the new narrative that we’re supposed to believe is that covid INFECTION causes cancer and the jabs help prevent that from happening. Don’t buy it. Covid might cause cancer, but if it does, it does to at fractional rates compared to the jabs. REMEMBER: they tried to do this exact same bait & switch with myocarditis, claiming that the virus caused more myo than the jabs, when it was the opposite. The vaccine trials only observed participants for a couple weeks, and then the drugmakers “unblinded” the studies, making it impossible to compare jabbed vs. unjabbed after that. By disclosing in great detail exactly how covid promotes neoplasmic growth, they are stitching together a coverup blanket, a new narrative to throw over the explosion in turbo cancers and blame the excess deaths on the virus. Because you can’t sue or or even criminally accuse a virus, unlike public health officials and military bioweapons designers.

Do you have any evidence of that? I'm guessing not, because I asked you for evidence multiple times and you failed to provide any. Deflection. The point is if you cared about children, you wouldn't want children alone in public bathrooms without their parents. You don't care about kids, you're just using kids to fear-monger about trans people. Do you care that you're wrong about this? And do you care that today, most people recognize trans identity? Even if you were correct about the past, words change. Often in ways that help with utility. Well according to your inconsistent and weirdo definition, the answer is no. Wonder Woman isn't an "adult human female" because she's not human, she's an amazon. Thor wouldn't be a man, because he's not human either. But if Marvel made a movie where Thor was gender-swapped, conservative heads would explode. Because y'all don't believe your own talking-points.

Awwww, you're back. Here it comes.... Yup OK ? Awwww, you're back. Here it comes.... Yup OK ?

They are facts. Your BLUE STATE STUPID opinions are just opinions. I deal with science. You don't have the education to do that.

agreed a God fearing Protestant Loyalist Orangeman a constitutional monarchist who knows his history, system of governance & the rule of law Cuidich 'n Righ

At least somebody here finds his posts interesting. I'm an enemy of God and Christianity, I'm told. ?‍♂️

I have great affection for Blackbird. His posts are always interesting. Where we really differ in this thread is the old cup half empty vs, our cup runneth over in Canada. We are blessed beyond our imagination.

Bolded is the only thing you said in that entire ramble that even had a kernel of a point, so I'll answer that first: The personal beliefs of a clueless tool on the internet are not relevant for any sort of investigation. Neither of us know who was actually investigated (or who may still be under investigation), but you do need evidence to prosecute. Whether or not any of the BLM organization's leadership incited riots, we can probably assume they didn't tape themselves storming government buildings in tactical gear calling for the overthrow of the US government. The rest of your post? Just more of your performative jackassery.

Some individuals have been targeted unfairly and lost their jobs in schools and universities over ‘cancel culture’ and I would oppose that. However, a lot of the complaining about this phenomenon seems overdone. For example, if you’re a politician, comedian or a writer, people are under no obligation to like your opinions. Paying too much attention to what various maniacs say on the likes of Twitter is also clearly foolish.

Both good and valid points. Yet I would ask @Queenmandy85...do you listen to folks when they chitchat about current events and "things" in general, when in social settings? Do you see and hear about the street shootings and knifings? The subway violence? Here's a page with long term stats. https://www150.statcan.gc.ca/n1/pub/11-630-x/11-630-x2015001-eng.htm Note that the worst crime in Canada, happened in the mid-90's. Also note that the crime rate flashed upwards from the beginning of the 60's. Yes...it has dropped. But of late...not so much. Toronto is becoming a shitshow. https://thehub.ca/2023-02-16/its-not-just-toronto-violent-crime-is-a-national-problem/ Now...we can sort of excuse the latest crimewave with The Rona lockdowns a stuff...added stress and anxiety. But what happened in the early 60's that propelled so many into a huge crimewave? What drove the people to commit so much crime all of the sudden? IMO...we robbed the public of base morality. In 1966 the infamous NYT headlined a question; "Is God Dead?". Well? Is it? No...it can't die...only lose power over the wills...the souls if you will...of the populace. Easy divorce...easy abortion...easy social assistance...lightened sentencing... In believing we were being...compassionate...we created a bed of nails. Everything we've done since the early 60's has served to destroy what were once common beliefs. As a result, society has lost touch with things like respect and honour. Now...I think we're all intelligent enough to realize the "Gawd" is not going to forsake us simply because we've been taught about him/her/whatever...by nonses who formulate "religions" as political tools instead of true social tools. But in those religion lie something of huge social value...a spirit of good will...respect...love even. Without that influence...regardless of the political crap the 3 major religions have waded into...the pillars of society begin to crumble. @blackbird sees this crumbling of man's...soul...and laments that. I do too.

America HAS ALWAYS been great. In the 1950's it was ONLY great for white males and their CLOSE friends, and that is the MESSAGE of MAGA: go back to white supremacy; when only white heterosexuals had legal privileges. ?

Checkin in again and I see the mental defective who this thread was started about has almost every single thread in the top 20 of both US Fed and State topics. Yep there's a few here who try and humor the wingnut and actually attempt discussion with howler monkey only to have crap slung on them. But my question is what the hell kind of life does this Reason 10 dingaling have. My Lord he's on this forum 24/7 maintaining his self gratifying slew of insults and degradation on over 30 topics, which he feverishly monitors. I feel pity for this poor deranged nut.

Educated scientists who haven't been bought off by George Soros believe these points. And your unelected pedophile president continues to accept MILLIONS IN PAYOFFS from the number one coal user and polluter in the world: COMMUNIST CHINA. You really are BLUE STATE STUPID.

and Awesome article.

Sometimes it really does go too far and gets really silly - like cringeworthy, completely out-of-touch and worthlessly guilt-laden. Even things like freaking bathrooms are ridiculous. You can barely open a low-key food joint now without the feelings-police coming out and forcing you to do 5 digit bathroom renovations (up to very specific code) so that someone's 105 year old grandma doesn't have trouble pooping. The culture-warrior hysterics, however, have taken whatever kernel of reasonable sentiment there might be around this and turned it into an angry clown circus.

It's fascinating how some of these folk waste their day scouring the internet for hot-takes over which they can get outraged. Not many years ago it was the "SJW's" we were rolling our eyes at whenever they got their panties twisted. Now the counter-culture has escalated it into hysterics.

Doesn't even affect his lot. They already don't go to museums, libraries, art galleries, symphonies, plays. Only woke people do. The ones that get dragged their only want to hear about the Hudson Bay blanket's pretty colours, the number distributed, where, when and how.

To my knowledge, Robert F. Kennedy Jnr is not anti-vaccination. Rather, he correctly questions whether a specific vaccine works. ====== As a Canadian, I admire his understanding of people, and this world.

She’s not Caucasian so she’s perfect for the utterly lost cause Toronto. Vast city of victims.

Are Democrats REALLY stupid enough to run on their record?
