betsy Posted February 17, 2022 Report Share Posted February 17, 2022 (edited) During the weeks of protests, all I ever heard from Singh was "ban this! ban that!" Not surprising coming from a communist-leaning ideology! Ban the confederate flag! Ban the swastika flag! HELLO? YOO-HOOO? Tone-deaf Jagmeet - haven't you been listening? It's all these restrictions that's caused all these problems - people are fed up! Let's take a closer look at what he's been encouraging Trudeau to do: This is from a socialist website: Even before Trudeau announced that he was proclaiming a “public order emergency” late Monday afternoon, the trade union-backed New Democratic Party (NDP) had declared that it would provide the minority Liberal government with the votes it needs to win Parliament’s retroactive approval of the government’s recourse to emergency measures. Speaking to reporters Monday morning, NDP leader Jagmeet Singh also signalled Canada’s social-democrats would be ready to support the deployment of the military to disperse the far right, absurdly named Freedom Convoy, should that prove necessary. https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2022/02/17/emer-f17.html Now, you're prodding Junior with his tantrums to declare what? MARTIAL LAW? Edited February 17, 2022 by betsy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

betsy Posted February 18, 2022 Author Report Share Posted February 18, 2022 (edited) Whether they are or aren't, who cares? You think without any flags there won't be racists? At least, the way I see it - those flags help expose them! You'll know who to avoid if ever you see them. RIGHT?

betsy Posted February 18, 2022 Author Report Share Posted February 18, 2022 (edited) Great point from Bergen. Jagmeet Singh has been supporting Communist marches! He has no credibility criticizing Bergen when he supports communism which aims to eliminate democracy!

Zeitgeist Posted February 18, 2022 Report Share Posted February 18, 2022 (edited) Singh doesn’t support the working people of Canada. He doesn’t see the plight of people who have been thrown out of work because of the pandemic and unconstitutional policies. He’s making the protests about race, even though there are protesters of all backgrounds. His own brother donated to the protest. Is his brother a “racist” and a “misogynist”? Do not forget that Singh is voting to support martial law on Monday night. He’s as arrogant, privileged, and out of touch as Trudeau.

Michael Hardner Posted February 18, 2022 Report Share Posted February 18, 2022 It would be fine if the far-right focused their efforts on whether to allow Nazi flags or not. That would be a fitting issue for them on which to stake their reputation with the Canadian people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The imposition of martial law and the unconstitutional vaccine mandates have nothing to do with white supremacy. Stop this. You’re no better than Trudeau for making something mean something it isn’t. How many swastikas were there at the protests? One? Two? Were the people carrying them Nazism supporters or were they saying Trudeau is a Nazi? Did anyone interview them? You don’t know but why not rush to judgement? I do know what the person thinks who carried the sign saying, “Gas the unvaccinated.” What about the USSR flag at the protest that someone filmed? Once you start looking for outlier examples in order to discredit the roughly 10,000 people who proclaimed that they were there to oppose vaccine mandates, you’re doing Trudeau’s dirty work. That’s called collaboration. Edited February 18, 2022 by Zeitgeist 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nexii Posted February 18, 2022 Report Share Posted February 18, 2022 NDP is tanking hard in the polls, see Nanos's most recent. They've betrayed the working class. I completely get why they are in such decline as I have supported them in the past (no longer). This means they'll cling onto power even harder by supporting the Liberals. They're broke and can't afford another election on top of low polling numbers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moonlight Graham Posted March 3, 2022 Report Share Posted March 3, 2022 I don't like those offensive flags, but I also wouldn't ban them. A flag has never hurt anyone, except their feelings, and people shouldn't have a right to simply not be offended by speech. It's just a piece of cloth. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you own a Nazi flag you're probably a Nazi supporter. Same with the confed flag. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A flag has never hurt anyone, except their feelings, and people shouldn't have a right to simply not be offended by speech. It's just a piece of cloth. I understand what you're saying 100%, and I also see Betsy's point about letting people wave those flags to out themselves, but Jagmeet wasn't really talking about banning those flags anyways. He was just using up oxygen to 'reference' those flags in an attempt to make it seem as if they were really there. It's like if I said that "we should ban terrorists from attending NDP cabinet meetings". Jagmeet himself is merely a 'terrorist sympathizer & supporter', but no one has enough evidence to prove that he's an actual terrorist himself. The comment itself would just be made to lend credibility to something that's actually non-existent, or at least something that's not currently proven. (It's worth noting that Jagmeet is banned from entering India because of his close ties to known terrorists and his support of people who have spoken in favour of using violence to achieve their political goals, which are centred around religious bigotry.) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
