Anyone who respects the opinions of Jordan Peterson should either seek help to figure out why their brain is broken or, failing that, commit suicide using as foolproof a method as possibly available.

Pretty much this.

1. Peterson makes a million dollars a year on donations
2. Complicit Nazis at Patreon.com pocket a percentage of this
3. Complicit Nazis in the media give him a platform for clicks
4. Capitalism trends toward dystopia

If I looked into it, I bet I would find out that he has never worked outside Academia. Like he went into University, and never came out. He really talks like someone who has never ever had any kind of real challenges in his life, but instead of thinking "i have been lucky" or something, he just assumes he's so loving brilliant that he knows exactly how everything should be.

"Man is least himself when he talks in his own person. Give him a mask, and he will tell you the truth."
Peterson's real talent is using his academic training to avoid directly making any of the claims that naturally follow from his mystic fascist nonsense.

It's the old, just because a guy writes "Women are evil chaos magicians who seek to control you with vaginomancy" doesn't mean he hates women.

quote:

Speaking with reporters on Saturday while campaigning in the Muskokas, Mr. Ford said he “hasn’t heard of any other issues” with nominations except for those raised in Brampton. He said that any issues should be addressed to the party’s former leader, Patrick Brown, who resigned in January after facing allegations of sexual misconduct.

“If there’s more allegations, then bring them forward. We’ll deal with them appropriately. And once I find out, I’ll deal with them exactly the way I’ve dealt with every other issue. I’ve inherited this mess from Patrick Brown and if it comes to me, I’ll act immediately,” said Mr. Ford.

Mr. Sandhu’s nomination was not disputed.
The Tory leader did not answer when he was repeatedly asked if the party was conducting an internal investigation into its candidates and any links with Snover Dhillon, a businessman and political organizer convinced of fraud. Mr. Dhillon played an influential role in a number of the disputed local nominations, including that of Mr. Sandhu. The PC Party also did not directly address a written question about whether it was looking into the allegations.

“The media keeps talking about it,” Mr. Ford said of the disputed nominations. “I don’t know about it. You mention the snowbird guy, I don’t know this guy. Maybe you guys should be talking to Patrick Brown.”


There you have it, the OPC strategy is to try and run out the clock for 3 weeks on this mess.

Somehow I don't think it's going to work.

There are some really good cops, corrections and parole officers. There are lots of shitheads, but lots of people become cops because they want to help their communities. A really good local housing organization I worked with has a cop on their board, and from my limited interactions with her she was solid.

If nothing else they are pretty staunch supporters of unions.

Cops are like pitbulls. Extremely loving loyal companions that would do anything for the people they care about.

Until one day when you piss the wrong one off and it rips you apart.

Although I imagine if cops got the same treatment as pitbulls when they go bad it'd happen less often.

Protest at the border this afternoon between Solidarity Without Borders and the "Storm Alliance"

https://montreal.ctvnews.ca/riot-police-solidarity-across-borders-face-off-during-demonstration-at-roxham-road-1.3937547

quote:

The Canada-U.S. border was the scene of a face-off between right-wing identity groups and their anti-fascist counterparts on Saturday at Saint-Bernard-de-Lacolle.

The Surete du Quebec arrested one demonstrator for assault on an officer after anti-fascist crusaders from Solidarity Across Borders attempted to block Highway 15 North at Montee Guay on foot.

The highway was temporarily closed to traffic for a few hours during the afternoon rally, and traffic was diverted south.

The organization staged the protest to denounce the racism of the far-right and promote an "open and welcoming" border.

Well-known anti-fascist activist Jaggi Singh was arrested for diverting protestors onto the highway.

Because of the traffic diversion by Solidarity Across Borders - about 150 demonstrators total - Storm Alliance, an alt-right affiliate group, didn't arrive until later.

Storm Alliance, and other organizations opposed to Canadian immigration policies, gathered at Lacolle - 200m from the police lines - around 2 p.m.

In a video posted on Facebook, Storm Alliance spokesperson Eric Trudel posited Saturday's rally as a means of denouncing illegal immigration.

Accprding to him, the Canadian government is spending too much money to "invite people who don't need help," instead of "feeding and caring for children in Quebec."

During Saturday's rally, Trudel saluted the 250 members from identity groups that gathered in front of the trailers installed to house asylum seekers.

"We do not have anything against these people, but illegal immigration must stop," Trudel told The Canadian Press.

However, La Meute - another alt-right group - refused to join in the weekend demonstration. La Meute spokesperson, Sylvain Brouillette, said that Storm Alliance is mistaken in their targeting of asylum seekers.

Instead, Brouillette said in an online publication that "it's human to want the best for your family," referring to asylum seekers.

La Meute believes the real target in this debate should be Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, who "prevents the RCMP from doing their job," the group said.

Interesting turn of events in which La Meute is not the worst. (They are still bad.)

Also, everyone's favourite "Catholic Nationalist" blogger Faith "Just Asking the Jewish Question" Goldy was there and she says she was spit on.
