Quote from: Sophie Scholl on Today at 02:24:38 AMDo I have to take that bullet like Trump or Kirk, though?  :hmm:

I mean, I don't think Raz wants to shot you :unsure:

Take one for the team/take a bullet was the attempt at the joke there.  :(

I got it, I just didn't reply in a jokey enough manner. I blame insomnia :P

Quote from: Zoupa on Today at 01:43:24 AMGonna repeat myself since you seem to have missed it:

Why don't you look at data then, see where most of the violence originates. I'm not even talking about violent speech, but violent actions motivated by political beliefs. You can scream "both-sides!!!" all you want, but outside of your computer screen is the real world, and the real world tells a story of one side overwhelmingly being more violent than the other.

I have seen the data.  Here's the thing.  It ebbs and flows.  In the 1960's and the 1970's it was heavily left-wing violence.  That faded, and right-wing violence outpaced left-wing violence (excepting Islamic violence which was seen as right-wing but now seems to be inspirational anti-colonial left-wing activism).  This year left-wing violence has exploded.  And suddenly YOU are advocating for violence while bizarrely pointing to other people.

And yeah, I know why.  I'm seeing something similar from other Canadian posters, though not as direct.  You're scared.  Trump has made some absurd statements about annexing Canada and now you want us to rise up and fight to protect you.  You want me, and other Americans to sacrifice our life for yours in some sort of fight against Trump.  Trump is just talk, but even if it wasn't, I don't think you are worth saving, Zoupa.  I'm sure you are nice enough in person, for a racist and a liar, but why should any American defend you?  You despise us.

If you want to see a fight against a kleptocratic authoritarianism just wait.  This cancer is spreading.  Britain will get it's own soon, and I imagine France will follow.  Eventually it will come to Canada.  Then you can dust off a rifle and get your own chance at anticolonial struggle.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

So, about Venezuela...?

Pretty sure my colleague won't be able to visit his family for a while.

That was certainly something, Raz.  :huh:

I'm glad you looked at the historical data, in any case.

He's right tho. The fascists will come for us in time too. Left leaning Americans won't help us and will hide behind the fact that they didn't vote for them the first and second time.

They'll fall victims to the IEDs like anyone else.

I think you are worth saving Zoupa.  But I've got a bum knee and I'm a terrible shot.  It's L shaped couch duty for me, I'm afraid.  Someone has to defend it against the Vice President.
We have, accordingly, always had plenty of excellent lawyers, though we often had to do without even tolerable administrators, and seen destined to endure the inconvenience of hereafter doing without any constructive statesmen at all.

The problem for us is that our names are too french sounding, so we'll be rounded up first  :( Maybe they'll follow historical trends and ship us to the swamps of Louisiana though.

The last time Fascism came to Quebec, back in the 1940s, did Duplessis round up French sounding names?

No, he wasn't looking to establish a Anglo-Saxon ethnic state.

But he was a fascist, deeply concerned about the possibility of Zionist migration into Quebec.
