Ofcourse we support proportional representation, except most of those parties we don't agree with and/or they just don't have a candidate in our districts.

Also NDP rn has a minority gov anyway so they might be forced by the Greens to try something.

What really pisses me off is that we had a referendum on this in 2018 and 61% voted for the current FPP system.

The thing is that many people are just unhappy with the current government and don't know wbout things like this and don't spend time on social media too.

And then there's the ones who are fed propaganda by feed algorithms.

Where I live, surprising number of professors use linux on their school computers. Right now 1 out of 3 professors I have already use linux

Cool thanks for the source clown.

I really don't understand, how do people have the gaul to make such an outlandish comment and publish onto the internet? At least try to prove such an outlandish statement with something.

Thank you! I've heard so many Canadians on subreddits want collective punishment and don't want American victims of Trump to come to Canada even though they can be a massive help to both our economy and our weight in the world through higher numbers of educated people (brain gain instead of drain)! Lets not forget 49.9% voted for trump, the rest are fine imo.

How dare you use facts and logic! This is whining sublemmy and I find it appalling that you don't just whine like everyone else!

Where is your source for this statement?

Google defines Zionism as "a movement for (originally) the re-establishment and (now) the development and protection of a Jewish nation in what is now Israel." This is my definition too. I disagree with land taking, but Jews deserve their own country too, they are under constant prosecution and escape goated everywhere. If it wasn't going to be at least near the original Israeli tribes were, then I can't think of anywhere else. The irony is that it's the right that often escape goats jews for issues in the west, but the middle eastern countries have been prosecuting jews since long before Israel existed.

Also, like you said, what is done is done. But the borders shouldn't change again.

I just hate the Israeli government tbh that Israelis keep electing. They don't want peace, they violate international laws constantly, the coalition has genocide supporters, etc.

But the Gazan government is so bad that they haven't even allowed free elections in almost 20 years.

Anyway, I doubt the courts will accept criticism of the Israeli government as supporting genocide, if someone expresses support for Hamas, or from river to sea, maybe, but not straight up criticism is Natenyahu and his dipshits.

But anti zionism is calling for genocide too. What do you think would happen to Israelis if the Israeli state ceased to exist? Especially if Hamas still exists. I don't believe in collective punishment, and anti-zionism sounds pretty collective punishmenty to me.

Its not about recognizing existing genocides, it's about promoting genocide. For example, Trump and Netanyahu's plan of taking over Gaza and turning it into a resort is promotion of genocide. Or calling for the elimination of people based on a protected attribute is promotion of genocide.
