If you allow arguing with the mods within the forum we are pretty much done for.

I think there is plenty of seed corn. The future is quite bright. And warm too!
-
I see no justification for that claim. An attempt to be pithy, but contains no grain of truth.
-
And yet we have a thriving society full of the most well fed and housed population in history. And even better, more and more people are waking up every day!
-
And right there is the problem. The right wing has taken an idea that they don't like and frightens them and claimed it is an "ideology". It is not and never has been. It is merely a description of being aware of a group of facts. The only idiocy and pathology I see in this thread is your thinly veiled hatred of ideas you reject.

The climate is an issue facing the world. Total population world matters a lot I suppose, where the people live less so. Especially since the newest Canadians tend to settle in the more densely populated areas of the country. I would say they are more like Canada's version of the KKK. Mostly because the GOP is a much broader coalition with only a portion being the deplorables.

Poor Bill..........don't worry, we all love you!

Canada is vastly under populated and actively pursuing immigrants. Like everywhere else in the western world this causes fear and loathing among some of the population.

Ok, now I've looked into a little more. "Woke" is traced back to a Huddy Ledbetter song about throwing off some of the yoke of oppression. Then it was used by people as a term to say they were aware. Then the right wing media types picked up on it and turned it into another one of their meaningless lame insults. It is now alongside SJW and cuck as terms they throw around to belittle people who oppose them. Because they get amusement and ad revenue from firing up the base.

Wash it in the washing machine. Use detergent and hot water. Problem solved. Newer Sunpath freebags are not urethane coated. Talcum powder is abrasive.
-
I still don't even know what the hell "woke" even means. As far as I can tell it is nothing more than a catch phrase used by old white men who feel that they are losing something if someone else is gaining something.

The best government money can buy!

America is both beautiful and seriously flawed. There is nothing new under the Sun.
-
Yup, I know. Same reason few Americans objected to the Iraq invasion. Y'all needed to get some revenge for 9/11. So spending a few trillion dollars and expending a few thousand of your soldiers was worth it. Who cares that Iraq had nothing to do with it? They're all the same over there in the sand box. Because revenge is just so sweet. As long as you don't personally pay the price that is.

The CIA did what they were told to do. The fault lies with Dick Cheney in the neocons.
-
Yes of course I am wrong. Killing people with drones is a mark of bravery. Soon the US military will be issuing purple hearts because of the damage suffered in PTSD.
-
It brings to mind the bullshit excuses that Colin Powell was forced to give to justify the invasion of Iraq. Another example of deciding what it is you want to do, then looking for justification no matter what the reality of the situation is
-
He is attempting to show off what he believes is a sharp and cutting wit. I think he likely does not understand the need for subtlety to pull it off. Although I must admit this is a tough place for anyone to make that work. Mr. Weber manages occasionally.
-
That is correct. If more people were vaccinated there would be much less chance for the virus to spread to more vulnerable octogenarians. He did what he could to protect himself, but someone in his life let him down and passed the disease on to him.
-
No, essential services are exempt from that requirement. And always have been.
-
But we are also requiring testing for returning Canadians. That is causing a problem for all those single day trips.
-
It now appears that the land border with Canada will open for non essential travel for fully vaccinated people on November 8. Essential travelers (truckers) will need to be vaccinated by sometime in January. The new reality is starting to take shape. Canada is still requiring testing before crossing right now, but I imagine that rule will soon be relaxed.

I wonder when Hollywood will produce the first of many movies based on the pandemic experience?

Movie time?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apollo_11_missing_tapes It appears that some tapes from one (the first landing) of the mission were lost. That hardly seems to prove anything considering the number of landings that followed.
