After the relentless clusterfuck of broken promises we've seen, I would literally rather vote for an actual house fire than a Liberal candidate in every future federal election for the rest of my life. I mean, that coffin only really needed one more nail, and that was them swearing up, down, and sideways that they'd pursue electoral reform and then immediately changing their minds when FPTP gave them a majority, but god drat they have just been filling that loving coffin with so many nails that it's more nail than coffin at this point

Yeah like it's straight up a given that I won't vote conservative because I'm not rich, an idiot, a psychopath, or PT6A, but it was nice having two other vaguely viable options in each election. It feels weird and unpleasant to be an NDP man by default because all other parties are either unconscionable or untenable. I don't think this is how democracy is supposed to work.

flakeloaf posted:I thought we'd agreed two years ago that a liberal government that broke promises would be in every way better than a conservative government that kept them. You don't get to uncurl the monkey's finger after you get your wish. A lot of things are better than a Conservative government behaving as it can be expected to, but that doesn't mean we have to pretend that a Liberal government doing the same isn't also loving terrible and unacceptable. "lovely, but not as lovely as it could be" is a really amazingly bad standard to which to hold the actual, top-level governance of one's entire country imo

Trudeau promised electoral reform and then point-blank went back on that, and that seems to have seriously pissed off a pretty good number of younger folks from my (admittedly anecdotal) experience, so I'm not sure it's quite that cut-and-dried.

See, I'm a little concerned that Trudeau's whole administration is going to be defined by a non-stop cavalcade of embarrassing high-profile poo poo like this by the time the next election rolls around, and people will vote in the Conservatives because the NDP is left of centre which means they're socialist which means they're communist which means they want to make Canada into the USSR e: and then Canada will continue selling weapons but won't even pretend to have a moral excuse other than "money is good" Angry Diplomat fucked around with this message at 23:32 on Nov 6, 2017 |

I'm pretty sure I've literally never heard "middle class" used in any context outside of incredibly rich people downplaying their wealth and modestly successful people trying to distance themselves from the working class. I don't know if that's just an Ottawa thing or what, but that's where I'm at. Personally, I've been under the impression that it's basically a FYGM dogwhistle for a long time. It gets surreal to see a Liberal candidate whining about the poor put-upon middle class, Heart Of Our Economy, and then look around at all the working-class guys I go to work with every day and realize that absolutely nothing this person just said will ever meaningfully apply to them in any way. There are only two classes: those who work if they're able, and those who don't need to work. Angry Diplomat fucked around with this message at 22:26 on Nov 7, 2017 |

Hitting Nazis is actually inherently good under all circumstances, but if you are going to do it you should at least conceal your identity and move with a group of similarly civic-minded citizens, because the police are there to enforce legality, not morality.

So what are you getting at? I'm confused, it's been a long week. A lot of violence at protests that don't involve fascists seems to either come from or be provoked by the cops, or result from a very long and predictable buildup of anger and tension that the cops had every opportunity to try to defuse but instead responded to with more riot shields and pseudo-military dickwaving, so I'm a bit nonplussed here. Like I'm not trying to poo poo on the cops, but this idea of nihilistic Black Bloc anarchists who show up to protests just to throw bricks is largely a paranoid right-wing fantasy and if another protester tries to convince you to do something to that effect he is absolutely 100% a cop EvilJoven posted:No I loving don't think it's good and if you take that post and the two before that as anything other than me expressing my extreme distaste at the fact that I now see the spotlight both on the left and the right being taken up by people on both sides who are screaming nonsense, arguing in bad faith, destroying property, hurting maiming and south of the border sometimes killing each other because of selfish reasons and cheap thrills, actions which are escalating the horrible state of the political climate here south of the border and across the globe, then gently caress you. Ah yes, there are indeed good people on both sides Angry Diplomat fucked around with this message at 18:54 on Nov 9, 2017 |

CLAM DOWN posted:I don't know what you're getting at either. Those anarchists/Black Bloc/whatever are definitely a thing, although it's a lot less common than people think. I guess we're both confused then? I think I misinterpreted your post as insinuating that left-wing violence at protests was a common occurrence. That's my bad.

Kraftwerk posted:Hitting Nazis is cool and fine, but I think the point of his comments is that a lot of these people are just looking for something to be angry and outraged about rather than a legitimate concern for the issues. Right, but the thing here (wrt in-person protests specifically) is that it's not "a lot of" people, it's a small handful of assholes. There was a pronounced anarchist presence at the Parliament Hill counterprotest I went to recently, and every time some Nazi came by to pick fights they would basically circle around him and mock him, isolating him and hustling him to the edge of the group so they could just shove him out (to be immediately marched away by the cops, natch). They're not stupid; they don't want to give the police an excuse to come down on them. Anybody throwing bricks etc at a previously peaceful protest is either a world-class piece of poo poo or intentionally trying to disrupt the protest. Social media is a whole different thing obviously, but ignorant angry people with a platform is hardly a new dynamic.

PT6A posted:If your goal is less terror, which is probably what it should be, then imprisoning these people or shipping them off to a hellhole (where they will be imprisoned, and possibly tortured) is not going to work. We know that's only going to lead to an increase in radicalization, and further marginalize these people from society, which is going to constitute a sort of positive feedback loop that will create some really pissed off, radicalized terrorists with more connections to other people who feel similarly. I had to triple-check that it was you posting this. Seems like only yesterday you were asserting that sending our military overseas to bomb people is actually smart and good

There are definitely quite a few Canadians that nominally consider themselves "progressive" but don't actually give any kind of a meaningful gently caress about other people, largely due to being utterly incapable of looking outside their own perspective. Folks like that are absolutely susceptible to the alt-right's deliberately stilted interpretation of the principles of free speech, because oppression is a thing that happens to other people, and the idea that they themselves might suffer consequences for saying something, even if it's realistically something they would never say, is ridiculously frightening to them. Political centrism is rife with cowards and sycophants imo. Angry Diplomat fucked around with this message at 01:35 on Nov 23, 2017 |
