Because Democrats still seem to think that all it’ll take to undo the damage is another Biden from the blue team.
The world’s not trusting the United States unless there’s dramatic change and people see justice, not 4 years of foot dragging and “reaching across the aisle.”
whereas the government in USA is company owned
Canada has low population density, poor public transit, a very fossil heavy economy, and it’s taking significantly slower and less drastic steps towards becoming green compared to Europe and China.
Instead of giving ourselves a pass by looking at it from the only statistical lens that obfuscates all of those things by dramatically over-weighing our low population, instead you should be demanding more.
Do you know what a ranking of countries by total emissions looks like? A ranking of countries by population, with some small reordering at certain indices. How is that useful for anything scientific?
I’m sorry but you’re just plain wrong.
By that same reasoning we can’t criticize billionaires for contributing 100s of times as much in carbon emissions as the average person because of their lifestyles.
Per capita analysis tells us which countries have poor transit infrastructure, harmful lifestyles, legacy fossil-based economies. Total emissions analysis tells us which countries are more populated. Cool.
The only logical way to compare countries’ climate progress is per capita…
I don’t think you’re getting it.
If Canada has 10 people and 6 of them are heroin addicts, and China has 1000 people and 60 of them are heroin addicts, then even though China has 10 times as many addicts they’re doing a better job curbing addiction since only 6% rather than 60% of people are addicted.

I’ll acknowledge my comment was rude, you are expressing humility now that wasn’t present in your original assertive message. You hopefully have a better understanding now.
This misinformation about national debt that you unintentionally spread is used by conservatives around the world to deny people services
Some people when faced with an overly simple explanation doubt their own understanding and try to see why experts and academics say otherwise.
Others assume they know better than the experts and everyone is an idiot but them.
Maybe you know a lot about a topic, and see others choose one of those paths when questioning your area of expertise.
Which kind of person do you want to be?
If they’re unsafe they wouldn’t be allowed, if they’re pooor quality people won’t buy them, neither argument justifies tariffs
Democrats and Republicans are aligned on trans erasure now.
Fucking idiot Dems think it’ll stop there I guess.
I don’t understand why Americans aren’t marching to war against this shit, it’s taking root.
We have a fair number of MAGA/convoy people ourselves, Cons might not be able to change without splintering.
The polls leading up to Trump + Trudeau’s resignation just show they’ll win by default eventually anyway.
We love pretending we’re a two party system
One thing we overlook in ideological debates is that most forms of socialism and communism would have no use for advertising and marketing. Imagine all this effort going to productive endeavors and having an IRL adblock.
May my last online purchase be a beret.
While this is true, it’s not difficult to verify. You can inspect the network traffic through your router from that device and see whether it’s communicating more often or with larger data packets while you’re talking near but not to it.
That could be obfuscated with a powerful enough device that’s able to maintain the user profile locally and by sending the full profile each time, or by trickling the information out bit by bit as part of a regular heartbeat traffic, but that would require more expensive hardware and would eat up a lot more bandwidth.
Not impossible, but not undetectable either. I’m willing to bet that studies have been done.
Skepticism is good but without thinking through it, experimenting, or doing research to back it up it’s just paranoia. Conversely you could say my trust that others would have looked into it is naive.
It’s not about the elections it’s about who gets the support and opportunity and resources to win elections.
A footrace can be executed completely fairly and transparently but if you need to buy special expensive shoes to participate and you receive them at someone else’s discretion and you need to join one of two private clubs to get an invitation and the leaders and members of those clubs also apply discretion then a lot of unfair choices and decisions are being made before the starter pistol goes off.
No offense intended then :)
I guess it both still applies and also doesn’t, wishing you the best through what might be challenging times ahead and likewise for myself here in Canada. Our right wing turn has taken a sharp turn back recently but we’re not out of the woods yet.
Even before October 7 Israel routinely killed Palestinians nearly every day across the West Bank and Gaza, that’s not an exaggeration. Single digit killings is as close to peace as Palestinians get.
stop externalizing the problem, if you Americans don’t learn that there are systemic problems with your country after this and just consider yourself saved when Trump is gone, you’re never going to break this cycle
We’re not going to move north, they can occupy our land but they won’t be able to handle the insurgency. We’ll move south, we’ll blend in, we’ll blow shit up.
Fact: most fictional media takes place on earth. They clearly mean the lore will be shared.
