  1. No I hit the nail on the head. You don't have to defend fox news, you are just using their playbook. Works on stupid people with no interest in looking at things through a critical lens, aka regressives. No you desperately try and claim you're not like that!1!11!!!! Yet you embody everything wrong with the conservative movement these days. Lies, misinformation, policy guided by hate and fear.
  2. No you don't, you hand wave away stuff and try and pretend things are as bad when they aren't even remotely the same. You are nothing but a partisan trying to justify your teams shitty behaviour with false equivalencies. That might work on stupid people, but folks here aren't as dumb as fox news viewers.
  3. Except you never criticized trump once for his rampant nepotism.... and which democratic president has given his kids senior level White House jobs? You can keep screaming that it's the same, but it's very clearly not the same. You just want to pretend it is so you can overlook shitty right wing behaviour so you can keep getting the hateful bigoted stuff passed.
  4. Republicans ain't gonna win an argument about nepotism. They just aren't. Trump and his idiot kids aren't even trying to be subtle about it.
  5. He never had a hero status, he was just given props for doing the right thing. It's rare among Republicans.
  6. Air Canada was a nickname from college was it not? Black is just a guy who loves to use players nicknames that's all.
  7. You and false equivalencies.
  8. She may have run a horrible campaign, but she had arguably the most substance of any candidate. She would have been my top choice not because I'm woke or any of that nonsense but because she truly was the smartest one of the bunch with the most well reasoned and researched positions. But she didn't get the support and is out of the race because Bernie inspires the progressive side more and Biden is the status quo choice.
  9. So offer proof that gabbard is being discriminated based on gender... the dnc wants Biden as it's candidate just as it did Hillary. It's not sexism, it's just wanting the person who is in with the right circles.
  10. Devil's advocate is about presenting a different opinion as a way to get someone to think about their beliefs. This is not that. This is trying to steer the conversation into a different and unrelated direction. It's pretty text book right wing distraction technique.
  11. But is the writer wrong in his description of trump? Seems to nail it pretty much on the nose.
  12. God willing Pierce avoids the old Lapo turtle plan with a lead and we can get some wins that are easier on the old heart (and liver as the sphincter clenching tight games lead to much more beer consumption)
  13. So if it's a mental state then let everyone be whatever they want to be, again, what's the difference? If someone makes that choice why are you trying to protect them from their own possible regret? Isn't it more harmful to deny the people who it would benefit that option? And I must have missed where we started talking about puberty blockers on children... sounds like patented regressive deflection bringing up scary sounding topics that aren't really relevant to the discussion at hand.
  14. Please explain how it is potentially damaging to recognize that gender isn't as black and white as boy or girl. What harm comes from it?
  15. Why does the bits someone has between their legs and their choice of gender identity matter one iota to you? That's the only ideology here. Their life their choices who the **** cares? It's not that progressives have cornered the market on logic, it's that regressives have completely rejected it.
  16. Ignorance and small mindedness. The hallmarks of trump supporters. Terrified of the world moving forward.
  17. Just amazing that people will believe that Trump pulling numbers out of his ass knows more than people who's entire job is to study these things. The anti-intellectualism in the world right now makes my brain hurt.
  18. Would buy that if people stayed away from the NHL games which is right beside it. Yes Vancouver is a ******* disaster with so many people living eons away in other cities because no one can afford to live in Vancouver, but downtown is still downtown.
  19. They don't need to drill, Papa Kenney already gave them their profits from the tax payers and they're leaving for greener pastures. Every ******* thing Kenney has done has been a disaster for the province and the hits are just going to keep on coming.
  20. so it's OK to violate basic human rights against law breakers? You know damned well that it's not all "illegals" getting caught up in this either. Also convenient how you ignored the other part of the post. No comments about how Trump is not actually engaging in free market capitalism? There's plenty of corporate socialism going on. But hey why stop and think critically right? Better to just believe things and pretend they are real.
  21. How are his tariffs and trade wars free market capitalism exactly? That's government interference in free markets... economic nationalism and free market capitalism are incompatible in the current world. As far as enforcing immigration law.... there are plenty of examples of them overstepping their bounds on that one. You can enforce the law without separating families and jailing children. But hey, they're brown people amirite?
  22. You think two senile old white men on the campaign is going to inspire anyone? Trumptards will vote for dear leader no matter what, lots of others will stay home.
  23. Wish I could go on a shopping spree at the bomber store. Maybe easter weekend.
  24. Trump is less coherent now than whe he ran for election (as low as that bar is). His mind is clearly on it's way out of the building.
  25. Mike Smith is either the best goalie on the planet or the absolute worst. Spin the wheel of fate and see which one you get on any particular day.
