  1. Napoleon said, "Never interrupt your enemy when he's making a mistake". Up until a couple days ago, PP was still spending millions on pamphlets and advertisements squawking juvenile three-word slogans in a political environment deeply and negatively focused against the master of juvenile three-word slogans. This sort of self-inflicted injury is a gift to his opponents, and they're wise to just step back and let him hurt himself as long as it lasts.
  2. I would too, if not for the fact that he posts 40+ times a day and is at all times derailing at least a half a dozen threads with his belligerent stupidity. 🙃
  3. Always funning seeing people share "news" off Twatter.
  4. It's a pretty sad commentary on your life that you imagine people on an internet forum "obsessing" over you when they don't respond right away. 🥴
  5. So your assumption is that I sat at my computer for "days" finding the quote you said that didn't exist, rather than that like most functioning adults, I don't spend my whole day arguing with people on the internet? Nobody does a better job making you look like a deadbeat than you yourself do here. WELL DONE! 🤣
  6. Here you go muppet, as requested: Once again, a quick little search is all it takes to make a clown out of you.
  7. I said it when he took control of the Conservatives, but Poilievre was pretty much the only guy who could lose the next election for the Conservatives. If they win the election, it'll be in spite of him and because of the Liberals' shitty record. If the Liberals win, it'll because of Carney, and in spite of the Liberal's shitty record. Weird contrast.
  8. Yeah, you quoted it, and you those are some pretty funny mental gymnastics you're doing to take that, and turn it into what you say it means. 🙃 As I already mentioned, if he was against free trade, why would he be promoting expanding it with Europe? That's a question you won't answer, because it doesn't fit in with your worldview.
  9. You keep quoting me and dragging me into these "debates", and then you keep whining and crying when you don't like where it goes. Pretty goofy shit. 🤡
  10. Yes, I'll refer you to eyeball's response: What you're saying is demonstrably not true. Carney's opposed to the chaos that Trump's tariff circus causes, and the fact that he's made it clear we can't trust the USA to uphold the deals they make. If he was opposed to free trade, why has he been talking about expanding it in Europe? When you can answer that question, maybe we can take what you're saying seriously.
  11. What comments are those, exactly? The fact that the US is proving itself (and not just to Canada) to be a fickle, unreliable partner is wrong somehow? Trump has ripped up the trade deal that he pushed for in the first place. Why would Canada want to continue relying on that sort of nonsense for its economic well-being? He sounds like he's reacting to Trump's retarded protectionism. "Like, come on man, knock it off" is the contrast you want to see? Come on...
  12. What's the relevant point here? Whether Trump has actually applied any meaningful pressure, or my wording of my phrase? Since even you know that these sanction threats amount to little, the only thing you have left is to obfuscate and play your usual word games. Which one is that? That this wasn't a massive propaganda win for Putin, handed on a platter by Trump? OOookay. 🤡
  13. It's not downplaying if the threat is basically meaningless. Please keep pretending that more American sanctions are really going to dial up the pressure on Russia though. That's totally credible. 🙃 Yes, whack-a-mole indeed. Even the most feeble deflection you can manage counts as a big victory in your little cult-brain. Let's pretend you had a point then: Your argument is that because Trump hasn't handed any further massive propaganda wins to Putin, that means...what, exactly? Beyond your usual word games, what was your point here?
  14. I wonder why? If PP somehow manages to lose this election, it'd historical for mostly comical reasons.
  15. Yeah, just like Putin can keep threatening to "escalate" against Ukraine. The threats hit a point of diminishing returns at a certain point, both practically and rhetorically. He legitimized it, publicly and unequivocally. That's toothpaste you can't put back in the tube - permanent damage to Ukraine's position and a permanent gift to Putin's propaganda. "He said a stupid thing" is a pretty feeble response, all things considered. Pretty massive "oopsy" if that's all it was. 🙃
  16. Nope, because Mark Carney has an economics doctorate from a prestigious economics program, and you're trying to tell us he's not an economist somehow, or that he's never used his degree? Either statement you're making is categorically retarded, especially considering monetary policy itself is an important part of macroeconomics....something they teach in...economics. 🤡👌 Keep digging your heel in on this one though. You're only making yourself look like more of a loser.
  17. ...and yet, I'm the only one still debating the other person's points, while you've descended into your usual sulking and ad-hominem. For someone who could do with less of me, wtf do you keep quoting me and dragging me into debates with you? There are two easy options here. You could either just not quote me and not engage, or you could put me on ignore. I'd be more than fine with not hearing from you. 🙃 Instead, you persist in this pathetic routine of picking fights, subsequently crying and b*tching about them as if you didn't dive in head-first, and then coming back for more and repeating it over and over again. What sort of weak babyshit is this?
  18. Here's a list of your quotes, in the part of this thread where you spent a whole page arguing how Carney wasn't an economist: "Banker yes, economist no." "It means you have a Doctorate. Which means you've been educated on the subject. But unless you've actually done it it's a bit of a stretch to say you're an economist." "Carney worked for a bank, and never as an economist. I would call him a banker because that's what he did, never as an economist" If I said anything as stupid as you did here, I'd want to pretend I didn't as well, but it's easy to prove you're lying, as you normally do.
  19. Coming from the guy saying the economics doctorate isn't an economist, I'm pretty comfortable where I land in comparison to you on what the word "facts" means. Thanks for the laugh about belligerence though. Your projection is showing again. How many internet fights are you getting yourself into today? 🤡
  20. If you want to mouth off and rant your deeply uninformed opinions here, they're going to get challenged. If they're particularly dumb, they're going to get mocked. You can be a big boy and calmly reason out and defend those opinions, or your can cry like a little girl about the fight you keep running straight into swinging. If Liz Truss falling into the PM's chair without being elected to it and lasting 49 days before being laughed out of office counts for something, what does that say about Trudeau getting elected 3 times and lasting ~10 years? What does that say about Carney, who was recruited as the first non-brit in 300 years to run the Bank of England? You do know that logic works both ways, right? FFS. You seem to be under the goofy illusion that dredging the interweb for people saying what you want to hear somehow forms your argument for you. The fact that you quoted Liz Truss with a straight face proves that you didn't do anything but Google "Carneyman bad" and then thoughtlessly drop the links into this thread. Thanks for your "contribution". 👌
  21. Considering Russia is already smothered in sanctions, this "threat" rings pretty empty. Now Russia is saying they're not going along with a Black Sea deal until some of the existing sanctions are lifted. Let's see how that goes, huh? 😆 Trump's spin is your reality. That's why you can't run away fast enough from the "fact" that he keeps legitimizing Putin's propaganda points. 👌
  22. While no leverage or pressure was applied to Russia whatsoever. While Trump and his clown cabinet validated and justified Putin's invasion publicly. If you were trying to describe appeasement then I guess you're right? 🤡
  23. Right, so declaring Zelensky a dictator, that Ukraine started the war, and pausing military aid and intelligence sharing weren't all gifts to Putin. Okay buddy boy. 🤡👍
  24. Yes, because Trump seems inclined to make sure it gets worse. So far, he's done nothing but improve Putin's position and make Ukraine's position worse. This is not surprising, of course, because everything he and his clown cabinet were saying even before the election suggested that's exactly what they were going to do.
  25. It's funny that you say that. You're technically right, of course. Nothing you're saying here matters. I'd be more inclined to listen to someone who knew nothing about this topic before I listened to Army Guy, who knows less than nothing but has strong opinions anyway. That's how we know that you have no freaking clue what you're talking about, and that your "research" is nothing more than grasping for folks saying what you've already decided you want to hear. That's why you offered Liz Truss as a source. She was saying what you wanted to hear, and the fact that she's a disgraced clown that was laughed out of office didn't even register. You probably didn't even know who she was.
