Competition is the spin-doctored way of saying exploitation.

I stopped trusting it much when I noticed there's a huge difference between the same product on amazon.ca and amazon.com. On one domain it can give something an F grade while on the other domain it will have an A grade.

It's a nice idea but when you think it about it's actually kind of hard to determine the quality of a particular listing apart from the obvious checks you can do yourself. Like if the seller is some random drop shipper or actually Amazon or the manufacturer.

Judging reviews with whatever AI system they use is not very accurate anyways. Once again the obvious fake reviews can sometimes stand out. But the better ones a machine can't tell any more than you can.

Liberal cabinet

Stopped reading there. You know why.

For everyone else who doesn't. They're lying through their teeth. It was a random MP. Not the Liberal cabinet.

You're always being recorded. Techbros do this on purpose. If they get caught they feign innocence.

They skirt the fringes of legislation anyways so it's not like there's ever legal consequences. On the rare occasions there are. It's a paltry monetary fine.

Luigi hasn't really sparked much more than social media posts. The powers that be know they have us sedated.

That doesn't make him neoliberal.

Carney isn't a neoliberal.

I've been trying an experiment on r/onguardforthee. I block the belligerent reactionary accounts. You know what I've noticed. Not only are there repeat customers. Some of these accounts are playing both sides.

It's not uncommon to see a top comment presenting a popular rational take. Where some time ago I've blocked it because it's a shit stirring right winger.

They are also quite often the OP of top posts in the subreddit.

That's an Americanism. Canadian boomers aren't as malignantly conservative.

Ford is a Trump supporter. Republican wannabe. He's just playing along. We're watching WWE kayfabe.

We're as fucked as the Americans are. Maybe more. At least the 75 million who bothered to vote Democrat who don't want any of this. One third of them know what's going on. Meanwhile Ontario is still voting on pointless traditional small-c versus small-l partisan issues.

I find myself uninvested in all this seeing how scripted it is. It's distraction. I mean it's been the Trump era MO for 10 years. Conservatives here love it. They've been cribbing notes. Why aren't more people seeing it this way. The bluster. The table pounding. It's all an act.

Whatever the bigger picture ends up being in this great big geopolitical realignment. Canadians are in for very rude awakenings whenever they start realizing it isn't anymore about nebulous partisan ideologies but fundamental shifts in the world we live in. If the notoriously boisterous Americans are asleep at their own wheel. Where does that leave us.

...citing a lack of consensus across party lines.

Way to leave out the the key quote. I can already picture the angry spittle on peoples screens. Everyone likes to omit the bigger picture for "trudeau bad" rhetoric purpose. He couldn't unilaterally change the way elections are done. He's not a dictator. Unless you actually want prime ministers to be dictatorships.

The new waves of users finding out reddit is no better than the dumpster fire social media sites they fled.
