A highly agile, deadly accurate, inexhaustable enemy with more strength and less vulnerabilities?

Bruh whaaaaaaat

I’ll raise a Jarritos to that eh

No one is serious about climate change anymore in politics.

Anti-woke politics in America have given complacent people carte blanche to ignore the problem at best, actively fight it at worst.

The new great dying has already begun, but we’re just barely getting started.

Anyone who is smart enough to be part of the boycott isn’t dumb enough to stop it over this.

I like the way you think, but let’s not kid ourselves that the pool of people who “would drive a car as their main transportation” is anything close to the pool of people who would do so with an electric bike.

Don’t get me wrong, I love the idea of a generous rebate on bikes. I just think if the goal is emissions reductions, an EV rebate is bound to be more effective, even factoring in the differences.

Care to elaborate?

Let this not be read as “we can’t even make a difference”, but rather “we obviously need to work harder.”

100% was on my way to say that it’s likely cannabis.

Cannabis is interesting in that it’s very harmful in youth, less so in adulthood. I suppose the same could be said about alcohol but a better social analogue for weed and teens is cigarettes.

Most kids who explore drinking might do it occasionally, on weekends, etc.

Lots of kids vaping weed are using it daily, if not all the time.

We are making it too convenient and discrete to consume nicotine and cannabis. I say this as a cannabis vaper myself. I would welcome with both arms a ban on vapes, not due to the content but the ease and invisibility of use.

100%

Had to explain this to family yesterday.

Told them I’m positive he will do the right thing, but not for the reasons we want him to.

That said, I’d rather him be a heartless capitalist than a willing traitor. So beat possible outcome I suppose

This definition of “high treason” seems close enough to me. And if it’s not close enough for you, seems like it’s well on its way, no?

“Waging war against Canada or doing any act preparatory to waging war against Canada.”

My point is we all need to be on board. Tax the rich so we have basic societal needs met, and then up the GST since “the poor” should not really exist within that system.

Totally idealist I know, but I think it sends the right message to both the rich and today’s poor.

That’s a fair point. I kind of glossed over the $100 fee part but you’re absolutely right.

I was trying to frame it in a way that said “I don’t feel bad for people who make the conscious choice to avoid the vaccine when they can access it, and then suffer consequences for that decision”.

I feel bad for the innocents, but whoever chooses to roll these dice and is unlucky, well maybe the gene pool is just better off.

It’s a great way to weed out ignorant and empathy-less people.

Fuck…the number of people who just eat that pathetically low IQ verb the noun thing up…

I really wish I could just verb them in the noun.

We need to demand it.

We demand it by absolutely refusing to support the US economy in any way we can possibly control.

This includes McDonald’s, Starbucks, Walmart, etc. Just because they employ Canadians doesn’t mean they’re Canadian, some of your money is still going down south.

It’ll never, ever happen until we accept that it takes sacrifices to avoid supporting the US. Monetary and otherwise.

The only response I want to see from the government is no response at all.

The United States is a rogue state and a direct threat to Canada, and the world.

Whatever Trump wants to do, let him. His words should carry zero weight as far as how Canada makes any decisions, and we should continue to diversify our trade and security as fast as humanly possible.

Carney needs to up the GST and taxes on the rich right now, any billionaires who want to leave, let them go. America will gladly take you and your money, get the fuck out of my country.
