  1. Apologies…. Quoted the wrong person.
  2. In English?
  3. Could we change the title of the thread to “Help Bring Back Polio and Small Pox”? ?
  4. How long have Conservatives been concerned with affordable housing? If I had to guess, I’d say since November 4, 2015…?
  5. Is there a reason you and others won’t answer the question about the language that you actually use in everyday speaking? Clearly, if you don’t us the term “coloured”, then you already know the answer, and this is just a silly “what if” game about the use of language and the importance of context.
  6. Great question. Do you use the term “coloured” when talking about visible minorities? Is that everyday language for you?
  7. Should Goody only have have violated the Elections Act by $50,000 rather than $150,000?
  8. If the group you oppose doesn’t care about context, is that a reason that you shouldn’t care either? Should one use outdated, racist language because one doesn’t care for “woke people”?
  9. Do you have an actual cite for this?
  10. What’s your definition of a communist?
  11. What percentage of vaccinated people have heart problems caused by the vaccine?
  12. What is the point of posting this bible passage?
  13. I believe based on the expertise of secular scholars like Bart Ehrman. Just like I believe that Julias Caesar existed, despite the clearly fabricated (mythical) parts of the histories.
  14. @Michael Hardner and @eyeball do what a dead Nazi tells them to do? Did you misspeak, or did you actually mean to write such a nonsensical statement?
  15. Do you think context matters? Do you think this is an appropriate way to ask about a person? Is this the type of language that you would use in real life? Be honest now….
  16. You’re saying there was none of these?
  17. Haven’t crackpots always been around? They just have a louder voice now and are more organized due to the internet.
  18. No, I’ve not noticed an attempted coup. But I don’t really follow everything they do and say…. They stated themselves, that was their goal. We have heard @Goddess try and deny they meant it that way. Thanks for being intellectually honest. It’s a goal that would be illegal if they tried to carry it out. But whether they have any hope in actually achieving it or not is a separate issue, isn’t it?
  19. No, I just reiterated exactly what I said. Both Parties have dissident voices. Is that a bad thing? Why would it be bad for the Libs and not the Cons?
  20. But the only reason gold is valuable is because we agree that it is. At least, for most of its uses. It is a commodity that does have its uses as well, but that would put it in the same category as copper, not a special category where it is used to prop up values of currency.
  21. So all the criticism about this plan were perfectly legitimate. Thanks.
  22. Do you think it might be more comparable with people who get arrested? Do they just leave those children to fend for themselves? Or do they take the children from the home and find suitable places for them, likely with other family members?
  23. Can’t the piece of paper hold whatever value we agree that it holds? Isn’t that the most basic premise of money? Obviously, it’s not quite that simple… but…
  24. I didn’t provide any buts…. Don’t both parties seem to have MPs that disagree with their party leadership?
