but when people use the words humane or inhumane to describe our species behaviour sometimes it reminds me of a line from the movie ‘The Princess Bride’ “I do not think that word means what you think it means.”

The description in my Bluesky bio which referenced the wonderful movie The Princess Bride, and the point I was making about our so-called ‘humanity’ , I posted long before it was so cruelly and tragically demonstrated in connection with it.

As much as I loathe to draw attention to the National Post, I think it's important to keep an eye on what they're up to. In this case, it's writing a piece that can be summed up with, "The stupid libs keep fear mongering about their bodily rights being taken away. Here's why we should do that."

So frustrating that the line gets blurred between opinion writers & actual news reporters under the label “journalism”. Genuine news reporting uses investigative skills & provides unbiased factual information. Opinion writers just need enough ego to think their opinion is more important than others.

I’m assuming you don’t observe Remembrance Day - since you discount all Canadian soldiers who ever fought bravely and honourably. Sad to see how many “good people” praise your work. They should be ashamed and so should you. The ignorant opinions you express are a poison to all Canadians. Disgusting

The far right radicalization of young men is a serious issue. Fanning male rage was a big part of the MAGA movement and is part of the game plan on the Polievre Conservatives.
