Because not everyone is 100% motivated by money? Also lots of MSM isn't funded by the government.

I would say it's probably a given that they support Trudeau but "obvious" "cheerleading" .. I don't see it. It's also pretty difficult to provide objective evidence of subjectivity right ? The MSM is more accountable than actual "shill" media, ie. paid-for advocacy outlets like Rebel Media and Press Progress. The Star has been strongly Pro Liberal through the years. But if you can find The Rebel or Press Progress making concessions like "there is no doubt people are tired of the PM" then post that too. The best place to get news is RePolitics.

I don't understand what we are talking about here. Nobody is talking about rights. This seems like an attempt to make this question more complicated than it is: "1. Why not use the phrase "call a spade a spade" " A: You don't use it if you don't want to potentially insult someone. If you want to offend, go ahead.

I told you what specifically I searched. Why are you telling me this?

They don't have to win. They just have to not lose. Like Vietnam.

Well... I don't feel qualified to discuss that but it seems to me that costs of labour do increase. But anyway... I'm more talking about his urging the workers to rise up... You have nothing to lose but your chains... Than dialectical materialism etc

I had a post disappear. I just mean that you can't feign innocence if you use words that normally will be taken as insults. So you can own that and not say.... Why should I not use this term? The reason you would use it would be to insult. If you want to do that then that's your option. The rules of social discourse haven't changed since the first insult shrieked by some chimp

Okay. Can you explain the Communist manifesto then? Because it reads as a directive, the working classes to rise up right?

Right but do you think that you're not accountable for insulting someone? Harassment? Hate speech? Words mean things.

Hey, I get it... you think that the Holocaust is overblown. Well, go to the patent council meeting and make your case. Morality is founded in politics, so there are likely more parents out there that want to ban remembrance day than want to deny the holocaust. Not saying that you're not "just asking questions"...

1. That's a Dodge. You're accountable for your actions. Everyone is. I don't admonish people for making fun of Trudeau or other public figures. I think that's a different thing than talking to someone directly. 2.3. ok

Do you have an answer to my question?

Right but ... the issue with videos is we don't know context. And you can stage them, not that I'm saying this happened. It's enough that anti-semitic stuff is being reported widely, though, for me to say something.

1. I generally don't want people to feel bad, but I also fall into insults sometimes admittedly. I DO however use words with purpose and consideration. If you want to cause people to be confused and possibly offended, ask a black person if he is niggardly with his opinions. 2. Not sure how that follows. It seems to me that 'both sidesism' is more like that, if that's what you mean. 3. Knowledge is a good thing, to my mind. Although who wouldn't want to be Adam/Eve or Adam/Steve I suppose... eating apples, looking at Eve's bazooms... chatting up the snakes.... How to weigh the value of knowledge objectively is an interesting question btw.

1. That's weird to ME because you're a non-atheist using the bible to justify policies that I have to live by. And I would rather you not post the bible, but if you insist I will occupy that domain and explain why you are wrong (in my opinion) 2. Right - but you are saying 'excessive' taxation is socialism which is akin to the devil. So at some point it becomes a sin ? That's rather arbitrary and I can't think of another sin that works that way... ie. you can do a LITTLE adultery murder stealing coveting blaspheming etc. 3. Please address why YOUR interpretation of levels of taxation that amount to sinfulness should be heeded ?
