They decided to become a movement about kids and minors, and then whenever there was push back against that, they turned into mass shooters.
Happy to help.
I feel like a lot of younger Canadians are starting to realize that smug anti-Americanism is not only not a viable policy agenda to solve any problem, it's a kind of opiate that actively pacifies a certain cohort of Canadians out of any interest in solving problems at all.
There are 7,500 tankers in the world moving oil every day without issue.
North America had a problem with one 40 years ago with a drunk captain and a single hull.
Let's quit pretending we need to ban tankers for environmental reasons
It's about ideology
Take a look at Quebec's revenue sources.
Pretty wild how double digit of Canada's second largest province is someone else's taxes.
We have whole parts of the country that get bailed out by people from other parts of the country.
Completely irrational and unsustainable.
I remember when progressives spent months ridiculing the "Mike Pence Rule" (never be alone with a woman who isn't your wife) as outdated, prudish, and regressive, while writing essays about how the rule oppresses and disadvantages women in the workplace.
Yes, it's true. Every story in the Bible is a proscriptive instruction about what you are supposed to do. There are no ironic morality tales, no parables, and no cautionary warnings about rash and selfish behavior.
“The Amish? The people who have been in America since its founding, produce virtually no crime, consume almost no welfare, and don’t demand the country be changed for them?”
This is the core of almost every left wing argument.
(1) Define the normal AS abusive, pathological, a form of mental illness, etc.
(2) Claim that, since everyone is a mentally ill abuse victim, the Revolution must come and our wicked society end.
"If we count spanking, circumcision, and sex while drunk, NINETY-FIVE PERCENT of people have been the victims of felony-level abuse linked to family and dating customs under PATRIARCHY!!!"
The liberals never actually solve the problems in Africa because then they couldn’t make money writing these books.
If they solve the problems, the non profits go away. The $200,000+ salaries for jobs anyone can do go away. The galas go away. The sense of superiority goes away.
On the contrary, birthright citizenship makes perfect sense from the perspective of a libertarian frontier republic.
You want to encourage hard-working people to come and settle in your new land to populate it and make it productive.
It makes perfect sense to offer citizenship to anyone who is born in such conditions, as they are likely to be raised in them.
Birthright citizenship makes no sense once there is no frontier left, or when the state begins to take on the functions of civil society in the form of services and entitlements.
Your ancestors weren't lunatics, they just lived in a different world to you.
This is why no one in any Western country can cut any welfare spending ever and why we keep going further and further into debt.
Because any time anyone reduces spending on anything, an example can be wheeled out of a person who suffered or even died as a result.
On this basis, there can never be too much spending, too much aid or too much tax.
Indeed, the author of the tweet I am quoting will almost certainly oppose paying taxes of 100% or having 100% of his country's GDP be used in aid to the developing world. Despite the fact that his failure to give all his/his country's money away is demonstrably killing people right now. How many lives could be saved by having all of his money go to Africa? How many millions could be saved by having all of the federal budget be sent to the poorest parts of the world?
So, this is actually how being creative works. Star Wars succeeded because Lucas threw everything he had ever read or seen (Fu Manchu, fairy-tales, WWII films) onto the screen. No modern Star Wars has replicated his success because today’s writers have only seen Star Wars.
DSA is full of legitimate left-wing lunatics and extremists. Their goal is absolutely communism.
Reporters should tell the truth about it, not try to cover for them.
