Back with this McCarthyist bullshit.

Yeah, I bet. Did they? Reverse it?

Those people are wilfully ignoring the 3 trillion pumped into the market to prop it up when it crashed in 2020, which absolutely dwarfs the pittance handed out as stimulus.

When I signed up and they asked me how I heard about them I said a Lemmy post so I'm going to go ahead and take 100% credit for this.

But seriously, that's pretty cool.

I hope we can make an exception for this person, as well as add a caveat to the law for situations like this. To me it doesn't seem to be the spirit of the law to deny someone citizenship over a 'crime' of this nature. Perhaps things that wouldn't be considered a crime in Canada shouldn't count against you for these purposes, or something along those lines.

Antisemitism is only an issue for you sometimes, huh?

I wasn't familiar with this outfit. Good article, thanks for the share.

I mean, sure. It's clear that he's trying to be poetic. I can make fun of him for being bad at it.

An electrician delivers a bottle of electricity to me every morning like the milkmen used to do.

it requires systemic intent to destroy the whole or a significant part of the group.

This is what they are about.

They are telling you who they are. Believe them.

...Well damn why aren't we all doing what they're doing?

Genocide is what they're up to. People could at least be honest with themselves about what they're supporting.

    
Article 2 of the Convention defines genocide as

... any of the following acts committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnic, racial or religious group, as such

(a) Killing members of the group;
(b) Causing serious bodily or mental harm to members of the group;
(c) Deliberately inflicting on the group conditions of life calculated to bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part;
(d) Imposing measures intended to prevent births within the group;
(e) Forcibly transferring children of the group to another group.
— Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide, Article 2[7]

  

It's as plain as day.

I don't know about any clients but if you block the lemmit.online bot and the zerobytes.monster bot the reposts will drop by like 90%.

Standing by genocide is atrocious. Decent people will of course not like and support that.

[Edit] Oh? Do you disagree? Is supporting genocide A-OK in your books?

ICBC in BC as well. Quebec also runs a public system but weren't included in the article for whatever reason. I would be curious to know where they rank.

I accidentally posted the archive with a broken link, it's fixed now.

"I don't believe in welfare," he says.

However, there is already a crowded field of Republicans running to replace Buck,

The most important sentence of the article. She can switch districts if she wants. Can she win a primary?

I agree in the sense that I hope the country can affirm support for it and much more wrt climate action. We've got a few months distance so it's out of people's short term memory but a lot of Canada burned down this year. Fully half my summer was blanketed in wildfire smoke. Turning an entire season (the best season) from great to awful is a loss of living standard that's hard to reckon with. We need to make this a central issue.
