I felt guilty every time I signed up for the EI I paid for. I knew it was irrational and the product of generations of propaganda making me feel that way but god damn if it didnt work.

Yeah but I live in Alberta, and I don’t feel like a lot of the things I see have much to do with what I learned in public education. Maybe I’m wrong.

Its just really frustrating at how easy it is. Like really fucking disheartening.

See, I understand that. What I dont understand is why every other non-coal town trump supporter didn’t immediately understand that this was a stupid as fuck grift immediately after hearing it.

Its just so fucking stupid on its face. How anyone thought calling it “clean coal” was anything besides dumb as fuck is beyond me.

Yeah but it doesn’t make the libs who are being willfully ignorant any less annoying.

True and fair.

Well, thats fair, theres liberals who purposely don’t understand what words mean in every country, they just mostly seem to come from America. Doesn’t make your attitude any less annoying.

No, its not OUR DEFINITION, it is THE DEFINITION, and American liberals keep trying to change it and then wonder why leftists wont vote for their candidates. Also only in the US is that the common term for the left. Because y’all dont want to read or learn anything and then dont understand why people get annoyed with you about it.

No, nobody is changing the definitions, and liberal has never been part of the left. Wtf do you mean we keep changing it? Who is we? The actual leftists for as long as I’ve been alive who keep telling you liberals that you aren’t leftists? The countless books and essays and political figures from longer than I’ve been alive who are telling you that you aren’t part of the left? I mean MLK and Malcolm X immediately come to mind, so how is this a change in definition at all?

It’s not even that hard to get guns here in Canada. I do not get what this US gun idiocy is all about.

Also, its liberals doing those things, not the Left. I really wish Americans would take the 30 seconds it takes to learn the difference. Its absolutely exhausting to constantly have to correct and explain.

Masculine trait in our culture. Not every culture has been a patriarchy and I’m sure many didnt care which gender was tough when survival was so difficult.

Absolutely had to be a factor. Pain and the evidence of it is a right of passage into adulthood, it shows strength, discipline, perseverance. This would absolutely be attractive to many ancient cultures. I’m sure the reasons were different depending on the society though.

But at least one of them had to have been to impress the local chicks who thought piercings were sexy.

I mean it did for me. So probably.

I’m into women my age. And I’m kind of old now so. Yes.

Probably the same reason I did it. They saw the hot ancient goth girls in the smokers corner and wanted to impress them.

I got permabanned from reddit for suggesting we should eat the rich like this.

This is why lemmy will always be superior.

Of course it wont. It’s the dumbest plan I’ve ever seen to avoid murder from revolution. It makes “let them eat cake” seem smart.

Yeah, IDK. Our rich are all kids that grew up within the oligarchy. They didn’t have to try as hard. They’re all drooling fucking morons that think they’re geniuses because everything always goes their way because they’ve always had money.
