Voting for anyone else will ensure the deaths of many more Palestinians under a christofascist dictatorship in the US that removes all restraints Netanyahu but you will feel good about yourself because of your principled stance. Good for you.

In Rwanda is 1994 the Hutus killed 800,000 Tutsis in 100 days.

If Isreal were unrestrained they would have mounted bulldozer blades on their tanks, IFVs, APCs, and lined them up with their engineering vehicles and armored bulldozers, plowed the infrastructure and people of Gaza into the ocean, and built settlments on the land.

But by all means, you keep using those big words and telling yourself whatever you need to to maintain that sense of moral superiority. I hope to god that Harris wins for the sake of the Palenstinian people.

So vote for someone who has no chance of winning allowing a fascist to destroy US democracy and ensure the annihilation of Palestinian people. Awesome principals.

Voting for anyone other than Harris guarantees that Netanyahu will go on unchecked.

No, I think it's grotesque. I'm just realistic about the people who are dumb enough to think that they are punishing Harris by electing a fascist who will allow Netanyahu to do whatever he wants. It's fucking stupid.

[–] MapleEngineer@lemmy.ca 5 points 2 weeks ago (18 children)

Then vote for someone other than Harris and get it finishing, am I right?

Causing Trump to win then immediately give Netanyahu permission to ethnically cleanse and annex the Gaza strip. An epic self own.

I don't care what you stand for. If you chant, "Death to Canada" you can get fucked with a fire hydrant.

 

Trudeau, Polievre, and LeBlanc issue get-fucked letter to Semidoun.

Seriously, fuck them and the horses they rode in on.

"I know you are but what am I?"

Dude, that's fucking pathetic.

The funny thing is that saying something is unhinged doesn't make it so any more than saying that someone is angry makes it so. You're reading your own emotions into interactions with other people. That's unhelpful and unhealthy. You should consider not doing that.

 

This is money that should have gone into healthcare to pay doctors and nurses more, to hire more doctors and nurses, to open more spots in medical and nursing schools to train more doctors, or into education to increase teacher pay or the number of teachers or the condition of it schools. How about to pay for bussing so our buses aren't cancelled 1 or 2 days a week because of a lack of drivers willing to drive or kids for poverty wages?

This is a very expensive political stunt. He's throwing you a few bucks so that you will ignore the billions of dollars of graft his government is committing.

It's bullshit.

If every person in Kemptville Ontario signed over their cheque to the local hospital it would be able to buy the CT machine it's been fundraising for, a CT machine the government should be paying for in the first place

I pledge to say fuck you to Doug Ford and his stupid political stunt and to sign poverty my $200 cheque to KDH the day it arrives to help pay for the CT machine my taxes should have already paid for.

Please consider doing the same. Sign over your cheque, your hard earned tax dollars, to a local school or hospital. That's where this money should have gone anyway.

 

This guy is human garbage. His "supporters" are human garbage. They are shit that a decent society should scrape off the bottom of its boot.

2 months in jail, 3 years probation, 12 month social media ban, a personal protective order, and $1,900 restitution seems light to me.

 

Pathetic fucking cowards. Big talk but no fucking balls. If you're not willing to repeat what you said to his face then you need to keep your Russian cock sucking hole closed in the first place.

 

It's interesting, isn't it, that canceling those hundreds of renewable energy projects when he was first elected was estimated to cost Ontario $230 million which is exactly the same amount that canceling the gas fired power plants cost us under Kathleen Wynne. I hope this is remembered as the Doug Ford Renewable Energy Scandal.

He hasn't shifted his position because he now supports green energy. He has shifted his position because renewables are now FAR more affordable than fossil fuel or nuclear. It's purely economic.

Cancelling those projects was an act of pure right wing virtue signalling. The $230 million is only the tip of the iceberg.

What you have to ask yourself is this:

  1. How much money would Ontario families have saved since 2018 if we had had cheaper, cleaner renewable energy on the grid?

  2. How much more is it going to cost to build those projects in 2025 and 2026 than it would have to build them in 2018 and 2019?

  3. How far has this put Ontario behind Europe and Asia where they are all in on renewable energy?

The $230 million act of extremist right wing political theater is going to cost Ontario billions of dollars over the coming years and has put us a decade behind the rest of the world (other than the US, of course.)

 

"I can't be a racist sack of shit and spew hate speech in Canada so I'm not coming!" - a fetid sack of gangrenous anal sphincters.

 

And yet they are braying for Trump Lite who is playing directly from the US christofascist playbook of grievance and identity politics while making impossible promises without ever telling us how he plans to deliver. But, he's"not Trudeau" amiright?

 

Danielle Smith, a white supremacist supported christofascist who has talked about putting progressive politicians, "in the cross hairs" can choke on a fucking horse dick.

 

Apparently Polievre's grievance politics don't play very well to an audience with actual grievances.

 

Remember that these are the guys who said that they were preparing to fight UN and/or Chinese troops who might invade Canada?

Now their lawyer says that they were used for hunting? Was she taking about the pipe bomb or the handguns?

I don't see a single trigger or cable lock in that photo. Was the ammunition stored in a separate locked container?

These guys should never be allowed to own a firearm again based solely on the UN/China delusion. These types of violent collective fantasies are extremely dangerous and they absolutely should be disqualifying.

 

This is nothing to worry about. The only schools likely to choose as a result of this problem are ones where Doug Ford's wealthy family, friends, and donors own adjacent properties (like they do at the Ontario Science Center.)

Billions and billions of dollars of graft but buck a beer and lower gas taxes.

This guy is seriously delusional.

Olienick rejects the allegation he would threaten officers, but qualifies it by saying, "unless you guys are shooting at us first."

"But it wouldn't be you guys," he adds. "It would be UN guys or Chinese."

The UN and/or China are going to invade Canada?

Seriously?

"I'm not going to be the first guy who's going to do it. I'm going to be the guy that's going to end it if it happens."

These people watch way to fucking many US made one hero goes on a killing rampage and saves the day movies. Remember Ashli Babbitt? She and her angry mob were going to overthrow the US government and hang Mike Pence and Nancy Pelosi right up until a bullet ripped through her chest and everyone else went, "Holy fuck, they're shooting white people! We're all going to fucking die!" and the insurrection ended with a single shot.

People like this should never, ever, EVER be allowed to own guns. They aren't going to save the country from tyrants. They're going to start some shit because of a delusional collective fever dream and get themselves and likely innocent people killed.
