There is a certified tape of him saying "grab them by the pussy" and lots of other extremely problematic behaviour that has been readily admitted to or else clearly indicated with verified evidence. Some things only have circumstantial or hearsay evidence—but it sure as hell ain't everything. By muddying the waters you are helping to weaken the case against him.

Wow, it's amazing g that you and your friends are a globally representative sample of millenials, despite all going to the same university. I wonder what would happen if different people have different life circumstances? Well, good thing we don't need to worry about that since you and your friends are doing okay.

That would be good but unlikely, considering that Holocaust denial is specifically illegal in France.

Having a boss is a good indicator that it's a hierarchy though, friend ;-)

Honestly how much does that mean when they lack representatives / are unable to vote, and do not get full protection of US constitution (as per Wikipedia)? Sounds like citizens in name only..

And yet locals still commonly refer to it as Saigon, e.g. see this Reddit thread.

Also see: the restaurant's website.

Anyone who still has any hope in the Democratic party after reading this is fucked. I mean, their ineptitude has been clear for awhile, but how am I supposed to read this document as anything less than a capitulation to the Republican fascists? Literally, focusing less on democracy is one of your key moves??? The USA is utterly fucked.

Right. In other words, we didn't evolve from chimps.

Fuck that. How about Americans own up to the fact that Trump is a symptom of long-term problems and is actually quite representative of what the US stands for these days. Once America has decided to elect a government who isn't outright fascist, then it would make sense to turn this ballroom into a museum to expose this nastiness rather than sweeping it under the rug.

The scenario you've described sounds far superior to the reality we're living in now due to Trump's presidency. The things you're talking about are happening already, but now with the complicity of the state. Trump in power is worse than his most extreme fanatics getting riled up.

Sorry to say, but this is a very colonial mindset, so much so that you did not bother to look up their treaty. As it happens, Canada has a specific obligation under Treaty 6 to provide agricultural support/development, which they have failed to do and thus have offered a settlement to the Lac La Rouge Indian Band.

You should also acknowledge that centuries of oppression, genocide, and environmental exploitation are also violations of the treaty signed by the Crown, and failures to hold up the Crown's promise to prevent pestilence and famine... you know, like scurvy.

Please educate yourself before speaking up on matters of First Nations and treaties and propagating misinformation.

The content of their comments has been much more thoughtful than many comments I see on Lemmy, and certainly conducive to further conversation. Downvotes don't make something good/bad or right/wrong.

Pointing out that the source is foreign-controlled does not make someone a 'China defender'.. it's a valuable reminder regardless of whether the content itself is biased. And considering it's paywalled, I would rather not give money to this US-controlled business, but if you could share the raw text I imagine the content itself may be of interest to Canadians.

I mean, is Stellantis really American? Genuine question, as my understanding is that their ownership is primarily French/Italian.

Lol, please do tell me more about Stanford's lack of money.

OP, I took a look at your post history to see what you're referring to. I found one thread where, indeed, some people are hating on Albertans. Others aren't. I also found other posts, including in the Canada community, with people celebrating the Albertans going on strike.

I'm not saying you're misrepresenting the situation, and I'm not saying there's not a problem. But I do think there is a selection bias going on here, and if we were to instead strive to interpret comments charitably and as obviously rhetorical in many cases, I think we'd find that there's a lot less hatred against every single Albertan (and by sole virtue of being Albertan) than this post makes out.

Go to ignore. I'm sick of explaining to every kid around what the difference is between nazism/racism/chauvinism/stereotypes and common sense.

Hmm, maybe you should try understanding those concepts first before you share with everyone that you are in fact a racist. Some food for thought.

It may not have the same ring to it but if you think about it for more than two seconds you may realize that it has the same meaning :-)

It's an interesting story, I definitely appreciate learning about this... and one which is very specific to Oklahoma, and doesn't reveal all that much (nor would I say it's necessary to hear to understand the crux) of Americanism.
