Lol bro what are you talking about? Given that there are few-to-no anti-2a people who feverishly vote far-right I think we can confidently say that they are not helping fascists into power. Unless, of course, we’re saying that gun owners getting butthurt and single-issuing their vote in order to keep their hobby is somehow their fault. Far too many gun owners put their firearms above their fellow countryman and it’s just embarrassing.

“Take my guns away?! Well how about THIS!” followed by “they made me do it” is so weak. Try again.

Context: I love guns as a hobby, even had a restricted license(could also own handguns in Canada) for a bit myself and days on the range were really fun. They’re 100% for fun, and if that fun comes at the cost of putting millions of basically unaccounted for firearms into circulation then it’s not fucking worth it.

You specifically need a coupon for that, or to go at s specific time, and to a specific place. Everywhere else I’ve been is selling expensive burgers and you might not even get fries if it’s not a fast-food place.

While it’s never been a better time to be forced to learn how to cook, a lot of people are more stressed and more overworked than they’ve ever been and even in the pre-union days they often had someone cooking and cleaning for them(I’m glad that women have equal rights and autonomy now but the point remains). Fact is, for a lot of people I really understand the hesitation. I can cook just fine, and try not to eat out, but I will find myself just doing crackers/cheese/meat instead of cooking a full meal just out of a lack of motivation.

Was he ever? Really his only thing was being a nerd, and we thought he was at least vaguely cool for the whole fast electric vehicle thing, but it took barely any time for it to come out that actually he’s both bad at being a nerd and a huge liar about how involved he really was with Tesla. He’s been poison for soooo long now, I literally have no idea how anyone falls for it these days.

It’s not skill, there are just that many people who are that stupid.

Well put. And oh the suburbs, where the greatest argument always seems to be centered around how much they hate their neighbours and believe that a cut lawn in a development is closer to nature than a full, grown back alley with maybe even a small community garden(fairly common in the major city where I live).

To your point about where the capitalist would spend money it’s actually the other way around. Capitalists hate the countryside, and nothing makes it more obvious than the shitty state of internet and package delivery. It costs way too much money to lay a mile of high-speed cable just so two families can pay not-even-that-much for an internet plan. USPS is and Canada Post are crucial services because of how badly the private parcel companies don’t want to serve rural communities.

OR, maybe we need to make a new system. It’s not just credit scores or total anarchy, have some imagination, fuck.

For example, maybe a system where paying your credit card off on time or consistently having enough cash to not even need a credit card means that your “score” goes up. If it is truly about being reliable then that’s a no brainer, and yet…

We also shouldn’t be needing so much in the way of loans anyway and we deal with that by forcing minimum wage increases. It’s insane how much people have to put on cards and how normal it is to barely manage a monthly payment on a 30-40 year mortgage. The US and Canada specifically demand that you own a car and the weather is often very hard on them, too, yet once again the prices go up and up and you have to hope for the best that you can afford the payments which hide their increases behind and extended term or only a few more dollars which adds up to thousands on the other end.

You: “Almost no”

Comments: pff look, some example!

Reading comprehension is in the dirt.

Fellas is it weak to not carry your 50lb suitcase everywhere? Definitionally yes but oh my god how fragile.

Nothing more manly than being surrounded by dudes and raw onions while getting drunk because you’re too much of a wuss to go to therapy or even address emotional trauma yourself.

I also like how they had a gender neutral bathroom.

Almost like he’s never had a consequence and…he’s actually right on this one. No one will do anything about it.

Aliens will come here and ask “oh so you all bow to them because they can breathe acid and are resistant to small arms fire?” and we’ll look them in their faces and say “no, they’re actually pretty average and some are shockingly unhealthy and weak. Pretty much all their power is comes directly from what we give them for money, as they aren’t even particularly clever. We just…I dunno, can’t? I guess?”

Except that even if your commute is 20km that’s still going tonlast you all week. Obviously there are other trips to make but it’s definitely not stopping 99.9% of people in the middle of their commute, or even their workday, to charge.

I don’t know why so many people think whatever they buy needs to be able to handle every single fringe case they’ve never even experienced or why they think that something being absolutely adequate for their own use is somehow bad. It’s room-temp IQ bullshit and I’m tired of it.

17k for a vehicle powered by a watch battery(exaggeration) is pretty sick and more than practical, even for people in North America.

Where do those bags go? Not saying this someone shouldn’t be just putting the bags away but surely they must go somewhere?

I just keep the bags I use for groceries on the backdoor door handle. Once everything is empty they all kinda have to go back together or they’d just be strewn about the kitchen and the place they go is beside the fridge.

The far-right is a completely dead-on-arrival set of ideologies based in hatred, either for “others” or simply just not considering other people human beings and caring more about ones wallet and personal comfort than someone else’s well-being. They can go fuck themselves and do not deserve to be legitimized, and if that builds enough support to be a sizeable force then whatever country it is is filled with morons and, frankly, deserves whatever they get.

All governments are “coalitions” when no single party has a simple majority and frankly if you run a government and don’t even communicate with the other parties you should be run out office follwed by being run through a large, pointy object. Anyway, the idea of “including all the represetatives in a coalition” should be THE FUCKING BASELINE.

Here in Canada, the Conservatives time and again show how wildly incompetent and unwilling to behave and collaborate they are yet they still catch big numbers while having little to no policy except crying like babies every time the CBC is mean to them reports on them accurately. The left-wing and center parties made a coalition a few years back and the Conservatives called it cheating. They also talk about being “the official opposition” a lot but never really seem to worry about cooperation. Part of me wants to see them get a minority government and have to beg for votes from the very people they spewed hate towards for so long.

“We’ve tried nothing and…”

I’m not exactly the most active person. Not been to protests here in Canada but I do vote and all that. But ya know what I don’t do? I don’t actively discourage people from protecting themselves.

You have already lost. The question is whether or not you’re willing to fight back and win in round two.

It looks like a cattle farm from the sky, except that cattle barns have plenty of windows and usually allow the cows some level of movement.

Except Elon knew tariffs were coming while supporting Trump like this. The only reason he’s complaining is because people aren’t buying his shit anymore and I’m sure he’s also trying to pretend like he totally cares.

Also shows how much they actually can’t or won’t leave based just on just a (much needed) tax increase.

Oh booo yea ok fuck ‘em.

That isn’t just voting for the leopard who will eat your face, that’s voting the leopard who has already eaten your face.
