Oh look, more Conservative Party campaign signs trashed, this time in another riding. https://x.com/Douga536/status/1911832442857566294 Oh look, more Conservative Party campaign signs trashed, this time in another riding. https://x.com/Douga536/status/1911832442857566294 Oh look, more Conservative Party campaign signs trashed, this time in another riding. https://x.com/Douga536/status/1911832442857566294

Here's a story (I won't name the person who told me this) that illustrates where we are in modern Britain. Someone who was a Labour Party agent in a town in Britain with a sizeable Muslim population was asked to meet a 'community leader' to discuss the next election. He went and sat down at a table. The person threatened to withhold the votes of the hundreds of postal votes he controlled because the Labour candidate had not satisfied him on a particular issue. To illustrate that this was not an idle threat, he brought in shoeboxes full of postal votes from the last election, all filled in for Labour but unposted. 'This will happen again unless you do as I say' was what he pretty much explicitly said. This agent (a decent person who is no longer in Labour) just left & refused to have anything to do with it. I'm afraid that not all Lab agents etc who find themselves in a similar position react similarly. Sometimes the threat isn't made as blatantly, it's more implicit. But we have imported the corrupt sectarian politics of clientelism into this country & then let it fester. It stinks I also spent years canvassing for Labour. One road in my ward had a lot of Muslim voters. Hundreds of times this is what happened. A woman in a veil opened the door. She spoke no more than a few words of English. When I managed to get across to her that it was an election, she would say 'Ask my husband' or 'My husband is not in'. Once I got a woman who spoke reasonable English. She was quite explicit and said 'My husband tells me how to vote, I obey him as a good Muslim'. The idea she would be allowed a political opinion of her own was outlandish This wasn't just one or two. This was the default. Occasionally you might get a younger Muslim woman who appeared to defy this. But 98% of the time this was the reality. I am sorry, it's not on. We shouldn't accept this as ok. This is Britain, not rural Pakistan. So you can see why, when I see Labour politicians blithering on about Islamophobia and how we need to restrict free speech to 'tackle' it, I see red. They are ignoring reality and putting on an act to curry favour with corrupt Islamic vote-harvesters. It is rotten. If thinking that all of this is not ok, if thinking that Muslims should either adapt to our basic social and political norms (e.g. not being corrupt, not being misogynists) or not be here, makes me an 'Islamophobe' or whatever, so be it. I don't care. The hour is late. Wake upAlso, the silence of most 'feminists' on these issues is shameful. There are lots of women right under your noses who are oppressed. But because they wear hijabs & you're too cowardly to criticise Islam, you ignore it & blither on about 'tampon poverty' or whatever instead https://x.com/CapelLofft/status/1910624178295779648

🔴 When you report on Islam, the warnings start almost immediately: “Be careful.” “Watch your back.” “Get protection.” These warnings aren’t coming from online trolls. They’re coming from law enforcement officers, intelligence experts, and national security veterans—people who know exactly what happens when you pull back the curtain on Islam’s political agenda. I can name countless friends in Europe who now live under 24-hour armed protection, bouncing between undisclosed safe houses. Others were murdered—for writing, drawing, teaching, or simply refusing to lie. And when violence fails, the next weapon is lawfare—lawsuits meant to bankrupt, silence, and intimidate critics using our own legal system as a bludgeon. So here’s the question no one in the mainstream media will dare ask: If Islam is really “peaceful,” why does exposing it require armed guards, safe houses, bulletproof vests—and a legal defense team? Just look at the names. Read their stories. They weren’t the threat. They held up a mirror to it. And that’s what made them dangerous—to those who needed the truth buried. These are just a few of the hunted. Charlie Hebdo staff (France)– massacred in their Paris office for drawing Muhammad. Samuel Paty (France) – beheaded for showing those cartoons in a classroom lesson on free speech. Salman Rushdie – stabbed on stage in NY, nearly blinded, decades after Iran’s fatwa over The Satanic Verses. Theo van Gogh (Netherlands)– murdered for directing a film about Islam’s abuse of women. Ayaan Hirsi Ali – fled the Netherlands, now lives under protection in the U.S. Lars Vilks (Sweden) – killed in a car crash while under 24/7 police escort after years of death threats. Geert Wilders (Netherlands) – lives under constant armed protection for opposing Islamic immigration. Pamela Geller (USA)– targeted in a beheading plot by ISIS supporters in the U.S. Bosch Fawstin (USA) – continually threatened for drawing Muhammad and winning the Garland cartoon contest. Rasmus Paludan (Denmark) – lives in safe houses, under armed guard for burning Qur’ans and warning about Islamization. Robert Spencer (USA) – poisoned in Iceland, caught on video after criticizing Islam publicly. Masih Alinejad (USA)– targeted in Iranian plots to kidnap or assassinate her for leading the anti-hijab movement. Vipul Amrutlal Shah – faced threats and bans for producing The Kerala Story, which exposed ISIS recruitment and Love Jihad in India. Nupur Sharma (India)– received global death threats for quoting Hadiths about Aisha. Mila (France) – under permanent police protection since age 16 for criticizing Islam on Instagram. Laurence Marchand-Taillade – under 24/7 police protection for exposing Muslim Brotherhood networks in France. Éric Zemmour (France) – follows armed bodyguards daily, relentlessly targeted for criticizing Islam and immigration. Michel Houellebecq (France)– under gendarmerie protection for writing Submission. Robert Redeker (France) – forced into hiding, his life shattered after one article in Le Figaro. Mohammed Sifaoui (France) – branded a murtad, under police protection for infiltrating Islamist cells. Frédéric Haziza, Philippe Val, Zineb El Rhazoui, Imam Hassen Chalghoumi – all under heavy protection in France for defending secularism and exposing Islamic extremism. Father Jacques Hamel (France)– slaughtered at the altar by ISIS terrorists during Mass in Normandy. Avijit Roy – butchered in the street in Bangladesh for writing a secular blog. Saman Abbas – murdered by her family in Italy for embracing Western life. Mahsa Amini – beaten to death in Iran for wearing her hijab “incorrectly.” Ahmad Abu Marhia – beheaded in the West Bank for being gay. Sarah Halimi, Lola, Luna – victims of Islamist rage and brutal violence in France. Salwan Momika – killed in Sweden after burning the Qur’an—while awaiting trial for “blasphemy.” Saïd Djabelkhir (Algeria) – sentenced to 3 years in prison for calling for Islamic reform. Asif Mohiuddin (Bangladesh/Germany) – survived assassination, now in exile for secular activism. Farag Foda (Egypt) – assassinated for advocating separation of mosque and state. Fatima Naoot (Egypt) – imprisoned for criticizing Eid animal sacrifice. Ahmad Al Shamri (Saudi Arabia) – sentenced to death for expressing atheism online. Mashal Khan (Pakistan) – lynched by a mob over false blasphemy claims. Basuki Tjahaja Purnama “Ahok” (Indonesia) – imprisoned for “blasphemy” after quoting the Qur’an. Asia Bibi (Pakistan) – spent 8 years on death row for false accusations, forced to flee the country. Farkhunda Malikzada (Afghanistan) – beaten to death by a mob after false accusations of burning the Qur’an. Hatun Tash (UK) – stabbed and targeted for death after publicly criticizing Islam at Speakers’ Corner. Lives under heightened security. Tommy Robinson (UK) – constantly threatened and forced into hiding for exposing Islamic extremism and "grooming gangs." Jyllands-Posten Staff (Denmark) – journalists and editors under threat after publishing Muhammad cartoons in 2005; continue to face security concerns. Imran Firasat (Spain) – lost asylum status and faced arrest after producing anti-Islam films; targeted with death threats and legal action for his criticism of Islam. Kurt Westergaard (Denmark) – The Danish cartoonist who drew the controversial Muhammad cartoon in 2005. He survived an assassination attempt in 2010 and lived under police protection until his death in 2021. 🔻 The Verdict Not one of these individuals committed violence. Their only “crime” was using their voice—through words, art, protest, or belief. They questioned. They criticized. They told the truth as they saw it. And for that, they were harassed, sued, hunted, stabbed, exiled, poisoned, and killed. If Islam is truly “peaceful,” why does exposing it come at the cost of one’s safety, freedom, or life? Why are so many forced to live behind security gates, rotate through safe houses, or rely on legal teams just to survive? And these are only some of the names I’ve listed. How many more have been silenced before they could speak? How many are being intimidated into silence in their own communities? How many live in fear—unseen, unheard—knowing that one wrong word could end everything? Cost them their job? Their safety? Their future? This is no longer just about free speech. It’s about civilizational survival. Because if we can no longer name the danger— If we can no longer protect our own citizens from violence and intimidation, If we allow fear to dictate truth, and submission to replace courage— Then freedom is already gone. Speech will die first. But our countries will follow. The names on this list are not just victims. They are warnings. And unless we force our political leaders to act now, many more will follow. History has made that pattern painfully clear. https://x.com/AmyMek/status/1911356572972065174

The religion of protest and prayer
I am Groot replied to I am Groot's topic in This is Islam's Topics
Muslims decide the perfect place to pray is not in a mosque but outside the Notre Dame Basilica in Montreal. https://x.com/l3v1at4an/status/1911825126653374568 Police in Montreal ignore the hate speech and signs of Hamas demonstrators and instead arrest a journalist (and not gently) for daring to cover it since the Hamas types were triggered by her presence. Remember that 12% of the population in Montreal are Muslim and so Montreal city council has given the order to police to back off and leave them be as much as possible. https://x.com/chrisdacey/status/1911546142397001778 That's the same reason police in Toronto leave the Hamas protesters alone. Mark Carney and the Liberals want more 'hate crime' laws. This is the way that's worked out in the UK. https://x.com/ForeverScept/status/1911425746221887590 -

As I said, I don't believe there's any organized conspiracy. It's each media company doing what they think its best for their bottom lines. As for who gets how much, information like that is closely held in Canada. https://deanbeeby.substack.com/p/news-media-bailouts-short-on-transparency https://thehub.ca/2024/07/09/trust-in-canadian-news-erodes-with-government-funding-five-key-takeaways-from-the-hubs-exclusive-polling-on-trust-in-canadian-media/

It's not a conspiracy. It's self-interest. A quarter of their budget comes from government subsidies and they know the Conservatives would have none of that. When I look around the web I see heavy coverage of everything related to Trump and tariffs and threats even when there's nothing new. The CBC had no less than a dozen new stories on their web site the other day related to Trump fearmongering and didn't cover the Carney Cayman islands tax shelter story at all. Same with Global news. CTV had one tiny box down low mentioning Brookfield but not mentioning the accounts with Carney's name on them. And now we're getting multiple questions by the media to Poilievre on abortion. Why? Because they've been instructed to do so despite the fact Conservative policy has remained unchanged for twenty years and Poilievre has already reiterated it several times. So why the questions? So they can put the questions and answers on TV and in their newspapers to raise doubts and make people fear. It's a very American tactic because the Liberals use Democratic advisors. Guns, gays and abortion in every election - scary scary! Don't look at that policy history! Don't think about our record! Look over there! Be scared! Be scared! And the media works with it every election and never calls it out.

I guess Liberal lying doesn't count, huh? All the bald-faced lies Trudeau told on a variety of subjects, and the lies Carney has already been caught up in after just a few weeks as a PM. Have you ever met a woman? They were pretty good until Trudeau took over. People like you always feel that those who offer 'free stuff' are wonderful people, even though they aren't paying for it, while those who worry about the ever-increasing debt must be morally deficient. "Just spend more! Give me more free stuff! Who cares about debts!? Someone else can pay that back someday!" - the cry of the Liberal

Carney/Boomers vs Kids/Rest of you
I am Groot replied to August1991's topic in Federal Politics in Canada
Carney is the leader for boomers who hate their children and grandchildren. He gives them free stuff then dumps more heavy loads of debt onto the shoulders of their children and grandchildren to have to repay while boomers laugh their way through retirement. -
Personal attacks really started when Reform came to Ottawa. Not BY Reform, but against them, by sneering lib-left political parties like the PCs and Liberals as well as their liberal allies in the mass media. It's only gotten worse since then, led by the Liberals and their American advisors. One of the major tactics of the Liberal 'rat pack' during the Mulroney era was to call him a liar - generally without evidence, just to get headlines. Often they'd be thrown out of the House of Commons for it, which they reveled in because it would get it into the news "Mulroney called liar". It was basically Joseph Goebbels's tactic of repeating something so often people believed there must be fire under all that smoke. It's been pretty carefully brought to light that the Liberals not only refused to condemn Chinese government interference in our elections but have held the door wide for them, covering up the interference as much as possible and efusing to implement any of the recommendations to combat that interference because it's always benefiting them. Does the word 'Yes', not resonate with you? Where does Mark Carney pay his taxes? Where has he paid them the last twenty years? How much money doe she have? What is it invested in? What about those tax shelters in the Caribbean with his name on them at an address Obama called the worst tax scam in the world? Where is Carney today? Oh, right, he got angry that the media were asking questions about Chinese interference, stormed out and cancelled his future events to come back to Ottawa and hide from the media. Mark Carney refused to take part in the first French debate, saying it cost too much. I don't think Poilievre has addressed and explained this more than five or six dozen times, supported by Tom Mulcair and others. Imagine thinking women have a biological clock! The shame! And the strategy and priority of the Liberals is... uh... uhm... huhhhh... uhmm... aaaa... uhmmm.? So is bullshit. And that's what your whole post was. Bullshit.

China continues to use Chinese social media, as well as other Chinese language media to support their comrade Mark Carney and his Liberals. https://vancouversun.com/opinion/columnists/foreign-interference-tactics-in-canada-always-changing-says-target

Pointing out that Carney and the Liberals will get down on their knees to fellate any member of the Chinese government in return for their help during elections is not blaming China for the current electoral standings. It's acknowledging that the Liberal party is the favourite of our enemies because they will keep Canada weak and divided and obedient to China.

The US WANTED to preserve NAFTA. Oh, just stop with this nonsense. The Liberals were utterly unprepared for Covid. And the DEI hire they put in charge of Public Health dismissed Covid as even being of much concern. It was her advice to the government to not bar travel from China, her advice to not bother screening those arriving. Her advice to the provinces who caused them to tell their population there was nothing to worry about and to go and enjoy their vacations. Meanwhile, she shipped out our PPE gear to China to be helpful! That's on top of letting our own stuff expire over the years and not replacing it, of course. The Liberals didn't do a thing about Covid until Trudeau's wife caught it. Then they ran around like headless chickens, shooting out money everywhere, and often into the pockets of Liberal party bagmen. They closed the border with China but still did nothing to screen arrivals. All through covid Canada's large collection of immigrants and permanent residents flew back and forth from Asia and the Middle East unhindered and unscreened. No quarantines needed here! They might hurt Liberal Party standings with ethnics, after all! When they finally admitted something must be done they decided to partner up with CHINA, who hated us, for a vaccine. That delayed us for a good six months before they realized China had no intention of sharing. When they realized that they threw billions at every pharmaceutical company in the world get put earlier in lines than other countries. And how much we paid per dose compared to other countries became a national security secret to protect them from criticism. Congratulating them for all this is just utterly eye rolling. No, it doesn't. That's a bullshit figure the government loves to give out but it's not true. We're the only country whose pension plan is managed by private equity people and that puts money into stocks so the government gets to put them on the other side of the balance sheet against debts, which lowers net debt. But that's an accounting game that has nothing to do with our debt and which other countries don't play. Carney has not even suggested when he might consider the possibility of developing a plan to look into a timetable of when he might try to balance the budget. If you cared about debt you wouldn't be such a loyal Liberal.
