Ontario will have an Australia of it's very own, we simply won't have the rest of Canada dragging us down and they won't have us dragging them down. It will be glorious. Australia and New Zealand don't need no stinking Confederation, neither does Ontario or Quebec or Alberta, etc. Edited November 13, 2019 by Yzermandius19 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dougie93 Posted November 13, 2019 Report Share Posted November 13, 2019 Again, Canada is not a country and never was, Confederation is simply an agreement. A trade and defence pact. Confederation could never be a country, because of Quebec. If Canada was a country, Quebec would have left long time ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And who specifically are the enemies they're fighting with. I as a general rule( unlike almost every person ive spoken with in the less than a week ive been here) try to be the least bias/partisan I can. These loaded statements like " fifth column" with obvious political leanings and no actual clarification of who and what you're specifically referring to (regardless of which way you lean) will never result in mutual understanding of varying points of few I encourage you to elaborate, im interested in what you actually believe and not just you waxing poetic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dougie93 Posted November 13, 2019 Report Share Posted November 13, 2019 I make no bones about my partisan leanings, and no apologies for them neither. Partisanship is no vice. The people who pretend they are not partisan are simply liars not to be trusted, those who are open about their partisanship are simply speaking their truth.

Dougie93 Posted November 13, 2019 Report Share Posted November 13, 2019 Even Her Majesty, I know that Elizabeth Windsor is a right wing nutjob even more so than me, her ultra conservative values are well known. There is the Queen, doing the job, then there is Elizabeth Windsor, I can love them both at the same time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Partisanship is no vice. The people who pretend they are not partisan are simply liars not to be trusted, those who are open about their partisanship are simply speaking their truth. Partisanship implies a predetermined prejudice. The rational person looks at each issue independently without presuppositions based solely on opinion. Everyone's environment will create a certain level of bias, so we must be vigilant as not to let confirmation bias cloud our judgment. If you're already sold (like you appear to be) how can you honestly think your epistemology is sound? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not only did i not say i have no prejudice, i specifically said that everyone has some. Partisanship is not only accepting that bias but intentionally using it to evaluate all situations But prove me wrong, go back to the last conversation about the queen you stopped responding to Give me a syllogistic argument to explain " Without the monarchy Canada would fly apart, should be easy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again, I said nothing of the sort, and pretending i did further proves you're being intellectually dishonest. What I did is that im aware of my prejudice and work to make sure it doesn't warp my vision on any particular issue.

Please, you can't use logic while avoiding expressing a specific claim you made in syllogic form Then you just went on another rant about nothing. Just a suggestion read some Aristotle before trying to argue logic. Didn't ask and dont care about your feelings about Canada, i asked you to support ypur claim with actual logic, but if you don't think proving that what you claim is based in sound reason , you're right you offer nothing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We live under a parliamentary-monarchy. Conservatives that support dictatorships do so because they're conservative which is to say intrinsically sycophantic and obsequious towards powerful wealthy people. To them this is as natural as recognizing and obeying laws such as those that physics describe - there are those who rule and those who are ruled. It's still olde and fashionable for conservatives to be with their rulers and betters because it's served these so well for so long.

Guest PPC2019 Posted November 13, 2019 Report Share Posted November 13, 2019 (edited) I'm tempted to join a society. I want to learn stock market manipulation and before wealthy. Maybe I should infiltrate them, get them to give out a few secrets. I need to figure out... What is the frequency. What is the frequency. We all have frequencies, we just need to dial the right channel. Edited November 13, 2019 by PPC2019 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
