If your crayon isn't a little unhinged you're not ready to poast it
That could make sense to me, I just super do not want to spend an extra 15 minutes on the bus while I’m trying to get to the ferry.

I don’t think it’s about who deserves it in terms of yes or no, it’s about should this route prioritize YYJ or Swartz Bay, and there is a big class divide between those passengers on average.

Honestly I feel like this will just be a minor annoyance for the majority on this bus who are just trying to get to Swartz Bay.

I think the standardization of titles was a big mistake, bring back Reeves and Alderpeople.

Central Saanich could be governed by two co-consuls, Duncan a bicameral legislature. Think of the diversity!

Maybe that’s just my exposure to it, but I just haven’t seen men doing it in the same way. Maybe there’s just less of an opening to reinvent a new way to do sexism there, idk

People re-invent this kind of sexist gender essentialism every 6 months but usually in a cutesy, twee way that’s vaguely shitting on men doing any non-masculine behaviour, which makes it very palatable for women to promote.

There's a whole cultural movement that insists men cannot possibly do anything that isn't completely testosterone-soaked unless they're either performing to attract women or are gay/"weak".

No, this is a dumb TikTok thing, which is really just saying it’s gay for men to read.

“Reading is gay” but woke somehow

We have it now for low-income seniors and those on disability assistance, for some bizarre reason some people were campaigning to expand this too all seniors, rather than all low-income people.

Crows really have like a society that we can see a lot more than other birds do.

I think it’s just an insane arms race of SEO. The competition of the number one result for “cookie recipe” has got to be insane

No, you don’t respond to these terms because you’re a racist. I do not care to hear your justifications for your racism.

Why do you keep talking about it Israel, it’s weird. This post was about an antisemitic terrorist trying to attack Jews.

I will never trust people like you so long as you make anything about antisemitism into being about Israel. It’s racist, and makes it clear that you don’t care about hate
October 29, 2025 at 8:39 PM
I do not care.

If you find it so easy to cast aside all concerns about antisemitism then I just think you’re a racist. Your reasons are irrelevant to me.

I don’t care about AIPAC or whatever, I care about people like this terrorist, and people like you trying to obfuscate for him.
October 29, 2025 at 7:41 PM
You have a point that bad-faith accusations of antisemitism have caused some people to dismiss all concerns, I just don’t give a shit.

If you are actually an anti-racist then you should still be taking these concerns seriously. If you don’t care about antisemitism idgaf what your justification is.
October 29, 2025 at 7:39 PM
Hey look, more attempts to dismiss or distract from an attempted antisemitic terrorist attack with… saying that ICE is bad? I’m not sure how on earth that’s relevant.
October 29, 2025 at 7:39 PM
I think a lot of this would stop if antisemites were actually rejected and shunned widely, but instead even in this instance there are people like you trying to make this about Israel, rather than being about the people this man nearly killed.
October 29, 2025 at 7:03 PM
Not once in all of this have you seemed to put any of the blame on the antisemites attacking Jews and Jewish institutions, and your focus on their justifications for their bigotry really seems like it’s agreeing that it does justify their hatred.
October 29, 2025 at 7:03 PM
You’re literally one of the people in this post on the left who is downplaying antisemitism and antisemitic violence.

Just stop it.

A lot of the time when people try to make these arguments they end up sounding like they think the brain works through magic or the soul.

The actual input/output of a neuron is really not as complicated as people think it is. Consciousness is the emergent behaviour of billions of them.
October 27, 2025 at 3:52 PM
Yeah idk I’m trusting that one.

Asking people this question uncarefully seems to get a lot of dishonest answers, which just don’t align with the hard data on Americans’ growing savings accounts.

If you’re putting money away every month you’re not paycheque to paycheque, but people say they are.

Yes you did. It is the state/county/city that controls the police, not the Feds.

If you actually care about fighting trump then you should be very happy to have these other gov bodies being supportive of action against him.
