When capitalism profits off basic human needs we actually need to deny people those basic needs until capitalism is destroyed. No more house construction until there's no more greedy profit-seeking developers, no food production until big agricultural corporations are destroyed. Oh me? Well I've already secured a food source through intergenerational wealth, but I care deeply about the ethics of our food supply so I'm going to block any expansion of food production. Yes, I am extremely left wing and care deeply about people's material needs.

That corp buys houses through private sales undercutting the local market then divides them into basement, main floor duplexes rented out at above market rates. Ever get those flyers offering to buy your house for cash ( at two thirds market value)? Yeah thats how they're buying houses.

linoleum floors posted:That corp buys houses through private sales undercutting the local market then divides them into basement, main floor duplexes rented out at above market rates. A couple weeks ago, at 9:00pm on a Saturday, we were sitting in our front room watching the Leafs massively choke. And a white BMW with completely black-tinted windows and its high-beams on pulls up in our driveway. We just bought this house from a cop last year. So I'm sitting thinking, "we're about to get murdered". But it's some dumb loving realtor following up on her stupid "hand-written" letter asking to buy our house. Life gently caress off you dumb fucker.

Another Bill posted:If memory serves, the number estimated out of the Truth and Reconciliation hearings was between 4,000-6,000. With 150ish residential schools operating in the country over the years I think that might be an underestimate. I assume that report makes a stab at estimating the children who disappeared into the bush or drowned trying to escape places like Kuper Island leaving no graves. Not curious enough to actually read it though, I'm grumpy enough this morning already. DariusLikewise posted:As far as I know there’s no “new” bodies found here but rather people are trying to recognize the fact that 20 years ago the city sold the old residential school land to some rear end in a top hat that paved over everything with a RV park and conveniently everyone forgot about the part of deal where they said they would look for bodies before turning up the land and the plague marking the school was removed. jfc. Meanwhile, in Victoria commercial re-development of St. Ann's Academy was blocked when they discovered dead nuns buried in the basement. They already knew about the ones buried in the orchard so that was going to be preserved, then the ones in the basement were discovered and whoopsie, nuns are sacred, no development profits for you. (Government Ministry of Ed offices would be o.k. with the nuns though, so that's cool.) EngineerJoe posted:I really can't imagine corporations adequately maintaining thousands of sfh's. This feels like something that will either take down the corporations or we will end up with slums filled with dilapidated houses. ¿por qué no los dos?

Flipping the message like this really just frames her defection as "I'm upset I was called a bigot" rather than any actual moral stand.

Arcsquad12 posted:In other poo poo news Fuckface Ford successfully passed the unconstitutional legislation on campaign spending with his notwithstanding clause fuckery. Oh man, the CBC article on this has quotes from the finest people: quote:Government house Leader Paul Calandra repeated the attorney general's arguments on Monday, saying the amendments were necessary to protect the elections. I didn't know that that rat-faced Harperite shitweasel Calandra had burrowed his way into provincial politics. No sense of shame on these - quote:The head of the Canadian Civil Liberties Association (CCLA) said Monday was "a day of infamy for Canada's constitution." I'm not sure I even knew that there was a Canadian ACLU knock-off, but did they really need to hire a director who's famous for writing a book on how he killed a guy and totally was not guilty of anything?

That heel turn was definitely coming since the grits' position on Palestine is so much worse than the greens, but wow I figured she'd wait till the actual election campaign not immediately! Utterly shameless, but in a way it proves she's a perfect fit for the libs lol

Thanks to the population of Morden and Winkler being dumbfucks, they've opened up their vaccine supersite to walk-ins for second Moderna doses if it's been 28 days since your first shot. I'm guessing nobody local is going in and they want to get their supply used up. I'm gonna head over there in the next day or two since it sounds like they'll be accepting walk-ins all week.

Oh yeah, I assumed being heavily anti-vax would be a thing in Winkler etc. We're going to be in a situation where general vaccine uptake is like 85-90% but having small areas below 50%. They're going to end up killing their friends and family. Holy poo poo I actually just checked quickly, Winkler is actually under 25% first dose and the surrounding rural township is under 11%. And that's adults only. They're going to be keeping their own local waves of covid-19 going for quite a while still, christ.

I'm honestly wondering if we can quarantine Winkler until they actually get vaccinated. Sadly I don't think we can do it for the surrounding area, but what's the population of the surrounding area vs the population of Winkler itself?

I'm pretty sure Manitoba's bible belt is the exact reason why the "Manitoba Summer of Re-opening" plan is set at 80% first dose for the final step even though we are at 71% already.

Our friends have already banned someone and his family from their wedding and also coming out when they rent a cabin this summer. gently caress em. You don't believe? Then you don't get to do gently caress all! So the wife of this person will go to her best friends wedding without husband. And they still aren't embarrassed by it. I see their mom posting all this poo poo on FB like Fauci is Satan in disguise (cause he did a hand gesture similar to the Satan imagery) and "Imagine telling me 5 years ago I didnt take a trial with 98% survival" - gently caress offffffffffffffffffffffff. Their whole family can gently caress off.

DariusLikewise posted:Why does the Green Party even exist? Do you think capitalism and the status quo is actually incredibly good but wish, as an upper middle class to rich person you got even more handouts and tax breaks from the government? Well boy do I have a party for you. Everything will stay exactly the same but the government will give you huge rebates on luxury "green" purchases like your new electric SUV or the solar system you installed on your 5 br vacation cabin. Don't worry, they won't blow your taxes on any of that lefty green poo poo like transit or bike lanes, your consumption and lifestyle can remain exactly the same but you can feel so so green and good.
