Off Topic Politics Thread

Doesn't look good for the institution. I think there are something like 60 MPs with assorted allegations outstanding.

 

Matt walsh is a self described “theoretic fascist”. Who believes is should be able to force his far right evangelical beliefs on everyone. He also lied about a hospital performing sex changes on children. Which led to the hospital receiving bomb threats. He regularly lies about the number of trans kids there are, to scare conservatives. He’s just a bigot who doesn’t care about the truth one bit, he’d much rather spread hate about a small marginalised group.

 

Almost all of that is regurgitated from left wing media. Just watch the film and form your own opinion.

Also; I’m not saying I agree with all of his views. But he is correct on this topic. Mutilating children needs to end.

 

How is him describing himself has a theocratic fascist a viewpoint from the left wing media? He also posted about a hospital performing sex changes on children, which was a lie. Again, he said these things no left wing media needed.
A far right bigot decided to make a documentary (I use that word loosely) about trans people he thinks are immoral and works back from there. No bias media there, just his own twisted views.

 

It’s not a lie. Watch the documentary. The link is above. It’s literally free.

 

It's a heavily-edited 'documentary' where they invited people under false pretenses and then ambushed them.

Also, if anyone wants to understand who Matt Walsh is, here he is filming in his car with sunglasses on (why the **** does every reactionary weirdo do this!?), discussing his views on age of consent laws (should be lower, because "girls are the most fertile at 16", as he has said previously), that the definition of rape has gotten too expansive, and why it's the victims' fault that they were molested by priests.

 

All this to “protect kids”, I wonder who we really need to protect the kids from…….

Yeah, a guy who openly talks about wanting to be able to impregnate children wouldn't be my go-to on the concept of "groomers".

 

The answer you’re looking for is woke groomers that want to convince young impressionable teenagers (and younger!) to cut their genitals off

 

Just popped into the Politics Thread for the first time in ages… and immediately been reminded why I don’t bother nowadays

What the ****! A voluntary army to bolster social care to somehow free up hospital beds. Work that should be done by skilled people properly rewarded for their efforts.

Cameron’s Big Society all over again - you all do it rather than the government paying trained people to.

 

The country is literally ****ed. Western governments/democracies are totally out of touch with reality and society is breaking down.

They would rather waste billions chasing ludicrous emissions targets, bombing innocent civilians and handing it out to their mates than do anything to improve the country.

 

Should definitely get rid of the ludicrous emissions targets. Really looking forward to even more of my country being on fire.

 

Genuine question. Has average rainfall reduced in Canada in recent years? It's a vast country but l understood that historically huge areas have always been essentially dry in summer months. Winter snowfall, if not increasing, appears to be consistent year on year. So are you saying that the wild fires are caused by climate change?

 

Winter snowfall definitely hasn't been consistent year-on-year where I am. We got about one-third of what had been the average yearly snowfall this year. Last year and the year prior were well below average too. And our climatic patterns have shifted significantly in the past couple decades: I don't know that we get less rain overall (we get plenty from mid-Sept through December), but we get less rain in spring/summer, and there's far less snow cover (if any) entering spring, so things get drier much faster.

Is the extremely dry spring 100% attributable to climate change? Who knows. Are all of the climatic trends that we're seeing entirely consistent with the projections for this region as the climate warms? Yeah. So the odds are pretty good that there's significant correlation there.

 

Donald Trump has been indicted by a grand jury on seven counts. This is not to be confused with his other indictment (for state level crmies) or the two more indictments that are likely (for attempting a coup and attempting to undermine the election in Georgia). But this is a bunch of federal crimes, and pretty serious ones, and also he seems to be completely dead to rights.

Love something in your life as much as Donald Trump loves doing crimes.

 

But… but… the left wing media… and woke thingies!
