Binary political systems evolve to end the democracy
Michael Hardner replied to myata's topic in Federal Politics in Canada
Around 100 years ago the UK system was similar to ours in the 1980s. Three major parties. The Liberals were squeezed out. -

1. "The Liberal definition of Multiculturalism encourages division and hate." How am I supposed to comment? If I disagree then I support hate? -

If you were somewhat able to frame this in less incendiary language I'd be more interested in discussing it. You think multiculturalism is evil or bad, I guess, based on your language. Bat our school it's welcomed. There's likely nothing else to say. Enjoy your evening... -

1. I have rejected almost every election "take" I have read, as I reject yours now. The only thing I believe could be true is that it was a lot of things, but mostly economic issues that drove the result. 2. Take=rejected. "Ya" ? 3. What that has to do with immigration to my country, province, town... I can't say. I have been out of the country before, including to poor places so... I'm still not getting it. 4. What Muslim grievance did we import ? We had a lot here already before we even attempted to bring the Irish in... 5. Doug Ford... hates guys in Oakley... uh.... 6. All cultures die in the face of the consumer society. Yours did too. -
Trump's A-Team
Michael Hardner replied to gatomontes99's topic in Federal Politics in the United States
1. Low attention to detail, seems to be the issue here. Yes, "illegals" will be deported including people who are essential to the US economy. Those guys who you hire out of the Home Depot parking lot to mow your lawn will be back in Honduras. 2. Statistics are to Chuds as fire is to Frankenstein. Not to call the OP a Chud, but I have them on ignore so maybe ? 3. No problem. All Trump will do is drain the swamp of the crocodiles he brought there. -
1. Absolutely. Sex doesn't change. 2. Yes, people should be able to call out racists and homophobes. 3. Yes, global trade in its current form was launched by giants such as Mulroney, Reagan and Thatcher. 4. Yes, and I favour felons being barred from office. 5. Of course. 6. Not at all. 7. Exactly what fake conservatives do not do. They refuse to take a stand against climate change as Thatcher and Bush did, they refuse to refuse the right to pursue happiness and freedom. 8. No, you're the culture warrior here. Here's a quote from you: "You're right. I'm not anymore. Frankly I believe most Libbie leaders and much of the media belong in jail. I've told you this several times Mike...the Libbies started this war...but we will finish it.! You don't like that prospect? Grow some principals then and stop lying about us. If you ever decide to call a truce...we'll be willing to talk." I was discussing with Couch Potato, not YOU. You are a culture warrior and not someone who believes in dialogue and our proven institutions. You DON'T believe in freedom. You are AFRAID of politics and different perspectives and you think people who oppose you belong in jail. Quit posting to me. You have admitted who you are.

No, I'm not a ... oh... right. I see what you're doing. No. I am conservative. People who support radical change and epistemic revolution used to pass out pamphlets in the streets in the 1970s. I would read them and think "Who believes this stuff ?". All they needed was a corporate marketing team and backing from the wealthy elite to succeed. And here we are.

1. Except we did for generations. Perhaps there's something else - something traditionally instrumental in triggering ethnic strife ? Like economics ? 2. I live in an ethnically diverse area and I haven't seen whatever you're imagining. 3. I do remember that the Christians and Muslims banded together to support Doug Ford's opposition to sex ed. In the end, Doug took those votes and did nothing much in the way of change. -

It's the parents and communities that want this. Just because you disagree with these things, doesn't mean they're "forced". Likewise, we're not bringing "oppressed" people here in a homogeneous group to rebel against "whites". Your narrative is, generously, forced. -
Fascism or Democracy (be honest)
Michael Hardner replied to DUI_Offender's topic in Federal Politics in the United States
They asked Twitter and Facebook to tamp down on disinformation about public health. The same way government disallows false health information over radio or television or cable TV. The FDA prohibits it. This disinformation was not only bad for health but was bad for National unity. That's why foreign enemies help to spread it But owning the libs means a lot more to the chuds, really those jealous egoists who despise the elite without knowing who they really are. -

I must say DUI, you have a talent for trolling the sore winners. This post will age well if there's a real clampdown on dissent, or free expression. -

1. At the same wage, don't forget 2. Oh, you got it after all. Krugman to n the NY Times pointed out 2 other impacts in addition to wage growth: deficit spending, and price hikes due to tarrifs -

You're my favourite kind of poster: humble and human, though I could do without the cruelty ❤️ -
It's hard to get outraged against such tactics when you look at Gaetz's loooong CONTROVERSY section on Wikipedia, and read posters here claiming smears. Then again, culture warriors gonna warrior. They're heavily invested in the MAGA team taking the field with all cheaters present. Still, I do long for a world where dirty players don't need FBI leaks to happen to be rejected for higher office, let alone this position.

Instead of countering my points, you show up with new ideas about abortion and MAID. Do you think only white people do these things? Weight replacement theory is insidious and incorrect. I don't care to discuss such crackpot ideas. If you have something more grounded, I'd be glad to chat. Was one reply not enough for you? Conspiracy theory. Not interested. -

These would be interesting points if they were being discussed when they were introduced In the early 70s White supremacy is poison. -
Trump America vs Deep-State -Communists
Michael Hardner replied to August1991's topic in The Rest of the World
And "free" to not. But isn't monopoly still a concern? Embargo? Are we truly free to trade if a bully tells us not to? Are you free to do things that your government prohibits? Chinese EVs are $20K, can you just buy one? You can't. Even without socialism, the state matters Auguste... -
