ZShakespeare posted:its too bad that the economy is a force of nature that cant be reasoned or reckoned with instead of something we just made up. Im sure it has nothing to do with the trend that started a ways back of deploying the guillotine. it is too bad, but whatever we do we can't let labour out under the thumbs of job creators

Virtual Russian posted:"the good times are ending" imo the good times were the incredible period of low interest rates and cheap consumer goods that allowed people access to vast quantities of cheap debt to buy and consume whatever they wanted, propped up by a massive real estate bubble. oh sorry, you weren't able to take advantage of this? well gently caress you. we must support our class of rent seeking parasites.

Ive had more than enough things to be despondent about with the left lately, but seeing local lefties defending an NDP MP recently outed as a landlord with theyre not really a landlord, they just own a home they dont live in and someone they know lives there and pays for the upkeep and mortgage might be the last straw for me to fully disengage. Just absolutely broke-brained across the political spectrum.

The left is just a dream a widower had at her family cottage despite the wishes of her estranged father. Then she had sex with a bear - maybe.

i know this is the canada thread and not the I/P thread but canadaland had a decent episode of "short cuts" this week: https://www.canadaland.com/podcast/929-stumbling-through-the-fog-of-war/. based on the title i was worried it would just be more "hey war is complex we can't be held accountable for getting things wrong" but it wasn't that at all. they invited Pacinthe Mattar on as a guest. she talks about how one-sided the coverage of israel/palestine is in western media, where the pressure to report this way comes from, the lack of respect for racialized reporters reporting on racial issues due to perceived bias and how that impacts reporting palestinian voices and experiences, the actions of pro-israeli advocacy organizations on reporting, etc

You want a greenbelt? I can get you a greenbelt, believe me. There are ways, Dude. You don't wanna know about it, believe me. I'll get you a greenbelt by this afternoon--with permits.
