That and Canadian oil sells at a discount. Cut off the largest foreign oil supply and replace it with domestic oil that sells at full price, all while every trader knows you are buying up all the excess oil to refill the strategic reserve, and hooo boy are gas prices going to go up.

You heard it here first folks. Jesus was of the radical left.

Right wingers have lost their goddamn minds.

Better alternatives for what? I can't think of anything I've ever bought from Amazon out of necessity, only laziness. And nowadays, pretty much everything that cannot be bought at a brick and mortar store, can be bought directly from the manufacturers website.

This is the take that frustrates me the most. "Since the candidate wasn't perfect (by my definition of perfect, which of course is exactly the same as everyone else's definition) it's their fault that I stayed home".

The election is always about damage control. You pick the least worst candidate, since those are the only options available. You want something different, you have to have your shit together before the primaries start. Instead, people do nothing for four years, then act all shocked and offended when nothing changes at election time.

No, no, no, don't you understand? This is the Democrats' fault for not running someone old, white, and male likeable enough.

There's a chain of burger places called "The Burger's Priest" in Canada. Must be talking about that place.

And how has that turned out for Gaza so far? Probably not the example you should be looking to replicate.

Most people, and all institutions can focus on more than one thing at a time.

There can be (and is) more than on hostile regime in the world.

So the government didn't spend billions of dollars to buy Alberta a pipeline?

Goddamn victim complex is getting really old.

If they refuse to play the claim, they are refusing to provide the service you have already paid them for.

If they refuse to renew a contract, they are not taking your money, and not agreeing to provide the service.

If a colour theme is enough to set you off, you may want to have an honest conversation with yourself about those feelings you are repressing.

Those are just the disguised lizard people.

I think the other thing that people need to remember is that when online on platforms like Lemmy, Twitter, etc, you aren't just having a one on one conversation. There are other people reading the exchange. People who would otherwise be allies, can still be alienated, even without anyone directly saying anything to them.

Also, there seems to be far too many people who are willing to let perfect be the enemy of good. If your opinions don't exactly match theirs, you are indoctrinated, evil, stupid, malicious, etc.

Redneck was the first thing that popped into my mind.

Too upbeat. Painkiller gets the vibes right.

Masking the cost of the Windows license is my guess.

until he was in and realized that First Past the Post would keep his party in power.

This part is untrue. The problem is that no one can even come close to agreeing on what actual system to change to. As the centrist party, First past the post is just about the worst style for the Liberals.
