This is something I find funny. Take the description of angels in the Bible. Now, how would you describe the following image if you didn't have knowledge of the modern world?
This reeks of the whole Gaza situation, but Canadian mild. Realistically, until our election process changes, those are our two choices. So our choices are: repeal the capital gains tax change and the carbon tax; or repeal those two plus a whole bunch of other things. You say whataboutism, I say the two practical choices we have at this juncture.
Reading this made me wonder how metallic lithium is stored and, guess what, it's stored in oil. So, which label do you use for a container holding lithium and oil? I'm guessing you need two, one for the lithium and one for the oil. And here we are.
No, I don't think this building is filled with lithium and covered in oil, but I suspect there is more than one container containing metallic lithium covered in oil.
I've already said that there are good arguments for why this shouldn't be considered a concentration camp, and this isn't one of them. This is like saying genocide isn't genocide because the unique tribe you wiped out was only a couple hundred people. So, if you took that same tribe of people and put them in a camp and resteicted their movement, would you not consider it a concentration camp because of it's size?
I'm pretty sure the vast majority of criminals imprisoned in America have been interrogated without having to be removed to a different country and kept in a special prison. I imagine the exceptions are military personnel stationed outside America, criminals serving sentences in other countries, and the people at Guantanamo bay? So why are they being treated differently?
No, someone just said it's not a concentration camp because everyone of one demographic wasn't there.
Actually, on further thought, I'll give you that. But, unsurprisingly, limited rights abuses tend to lead to more extensive rights abuses, and the only really surprising thing is that it took more than 20 years to go from torture camps to concentration camps. Waiting for those ghettos, Poland style.
Why on earth would she have any interest in helping the company retain knowledge when the country that company is in has treated her so poorly? Move on and it's their loss.
Yeah, it's funny because of how terrible everyone is. I'm laughing because it's outrageous, not because the characters are going through relatable hijinks.
I wouldn't say inevitable, but there seems to be a whole aspect of capitalism where doing that which is not done is the norm. So all those baby steps inevitably lead to a degree of rapaciousness that is hard to envision 20 or 40 years ago.
I had someone at work ask me if I was an expert at Excel. I've written macros in VBA and made formulas that would have been easier as a macro so I could save them as xlsx instead of xlsm. I said yes, with some hesitation. She asked me if I could help her with a problem and I said sure. The problem was a bunch of hidden cells. At least it wasn't a bunch of data she'd deleted and wanted me to get back for her.
The amazing part was how hard it was to show the cells in the latest version of Excel.
Lol this is the typical takeaway. A better result would be to not engage in illegal practices and then it doesn't matter if you put it in writing, but that's not how you become a billionaire.
At this point, this clip is the entirety of the debate that I've seen, but I will say two things about this general issue.
If your argument is that his opponents are doing shitty things so it's okay if he does shitty things, take a look through history or south of our border to see how that ends up. And I've never seen Pierre give a real alternative to any issue he's identified, whether those issues are real or not. The few stances he's taken are usually tired conservative agendas that have failed every time they've been tried, yet he drags their mummified remains onto the stage, dusts them off, and pretends that it's a novel idea that will solve the issue it's targeted at with a single step. Mandatory minimum sentencing? This is a primarily punitive measure that ignores the main issues with our prison system, that it is overloaded by people who have little hope for a better future and few options besides crime for anything but the most meager of existences. But sure, longer sentences will fix that. No? Well, at least it's something that can happen in one term. And that's representative of every 'idea' he puts forward. An alternative whose only merit is the thinnest veneer of emotional relief to charged topics and not enough depth or nuance to actually address the problem, let alone solve it.
