  1. China pollutes worse. I get it. Now try telling the lifeguard that Johnny Rotten is still pissing in the pool so why should I have to stop? Squeeze your cheeks together and tax your brain until it explodes, maybe you'll get that cuz that's what you're doing.
  2. Oh yes, those missionaries were such a benefit to those colonized. They should fall on their knees in gratitude. [/s]
  3. Well I guess only lefties can distinguish ill formed assumptions from 'truths' then.
  4. Did you skip every history class in school? You don't know/not sure that Britain didn't abolish slavery until 1837 and other European nations later than that? That women were chattel property until into the 20th century? That there's an entire race called "Metis" who traded with natives, married and took up much of the native culture? Without 'conquering' or 'colonizing them?
  5. 1970s? When it realized 'all men are created equal' meant brown people and women too? When it got the brains to pull out of an unwinnable war that the people didn't support? When everyone knew you couldn't lob nukes without total annihilation? When they first noticed what people did could f*** up the whole planet? When Presidents had a sense of shame and resigned instead of bragging about it. When everyone knew that 'because he could beat you up' didn't make a school bully a hero and role model? When people laughed at Archie Bunker instead of wanting to be him? When people could watch Star Trek TOS, MASH and Walter Cronkite and weren't snivelling in public they were too "woke"? When they could actually run and vote for a Socialist candidate and not be intimidated? Basically in the days Americans could say "Enough is enough!"
  6. Learn to distinguish truth from a personal speculation. One so basically racist it assumes a culture is incapable of evolving. Goes hand in hand with ultra conservative ideals wishing your own culture to stop evolving. 500 years our own culture kept slaves and "owned" women as it had done for thousands of years. You saying native culture couldn't change after 500 years of mere exposure to Europeans rather than colonization? Your viewpoint has been coloured by a colonial upbringing. The definition of what they call a 'settler' view. Stamping your feet and denying it like denying 'white privilege" doesn't change that it exists.
  7. Congratulations You have just won the George C Wallace Award for the most blatantly racist post in this entire thread.
  8. Stop making shit up as if it was true. Forced attendance at school was and still IS up to a certain age for everyone. Or are you gonna claim they were forced because home schooling in Ukranian or Farsi wasn't gonna get them anywhere once they went outside?
  9. This thread has nothing to do with Canada - Federal Politics at all.
  10. Oh Jesus, chevron.com completely makes up gibberish BS ideas and calls them myths and they fall for it. They're just as reliable as stepping outside and believing your own eyes.... duhh
  11. I still want a Trumpy bear to take camping. There's a secret compartment with emergency toilet paper in them.
  12. Same old same old BS. Interpret everything thru your perverted antivax lens, blame the left for opposing actual dictators oppose anything that benefits society as a whole and glorify those that impose ideas similar to yours on everyone else. He made the trains run on time justifications....
  13. So besides blaming Trudeau for this problem too, what's a solution? I would suggest a start would be spending fewer billions and years studying and more time doing. Like maybe buy some unused industrial, non-agricultural land near transit access and servicing it as a mobile home park. With the gov't "study" money and no greedy landlord that wants $1000 a month just for a trailer pad.
  14. Granted they were promoting the American Dream to themselves all the time in those days, but because Hollywood was 90% of entertainment everywhere, internationally too even if not by intention. The results can be seen today at the southern border. Sell them the dream and act surprised when they come in droves?
  15. No I wouldn't say it was, nor would I give the whole world that the USAs was better than everyone else's, which was predominant from Hollywood at the time. At the time? Sorry I should have said still is. (remaking Red Dawn, all time Reagan era propaganda movie)
  16. You know how it works out though. The very fact they own an RV they can live in on the side of the road means they won't qualify to get housing. The usual Catch22. You must sell the RV and live off the money you. Then when you're absolutely penniless you can reapply.
  17. We're aware Americans find it difficult to spell. Mould is the King's English. If you had any perception you'd figure out I used 2 spelling to distinguish two different things to try to help you get it.
  18. I saw all the profound statements. I can only agree that they are profoundly deplorable.
  19. Rooms do not pass or fail, they're rooms. Come out and say what it is - staffing shortages are the problem. If there's no beds, they can't move you out of the Emergency, can they? If there's only so many ER staff they can't serve you faster, can they?
  20. Most military know you need a security clearance to view secret documents. And the only reason PP won't get read in is because then he'll know what's on the table and might have to agree with the conclusions. Refusing to he can keep ranting on with his anti-Trudeau bullshit and keep to the Tory's no actual platform whatsoever.
  21. Let's equate Drag Queens with KKK members. Cross dressing with pedos. Sex Ed is porno. Black is white the sky is purple. Someone needs one of Elon's brain implants.
  22. Parents pushed you to get a degree so you would keep learning. Even if it was in poetry or lesbian dance, you'd understand you learned something and didn't have an aversion to learning itself. Unlike so many that stopped dead once they graduated and ain't gonna learn nuthin' anymore, don't have to. Or as we see so much on this forum, didn't even get that far.
  23. So Beaver and I represent "the left", eh? The evil bogeymen who want to see "we shot the guards and stole Imhotep's mummy" and "he also used his assembly line as a war profiteer and Hitler admirer" added to displays. And want to 'groom' children and hear them say "Look Mommy! Neanderthals had boobies and wee-wees just like we do!"
  24. You went and looked that up? Feck ! I was just mocking these ignorant types that like to celebrate every deplorable act that strokes their ego. Department stores 'grooming' people.... feck!
