Thankfully in metric so we non Americans can understand what the mph values mean.

Reminder that before Oct 7, Israel was still the occupying force in Gaza, as it still is in the West Bank. The absence of ground troops does not equal an end to occupation. So Biden here is being disingenuous.

When did very bloody wars stop being newsworthy stories?

When did children's safety in war stop being newsworthy?

And if there is a debate to be fuelled, how is "too many children are dying in this very bloody war" not a point of view that is worth making a point for?

Are you even human?

Give one fucking reason why it would make sense to exclude it.

And no, the blood libel is not relevant when the actual army actually kills so indiscriminately that child deaths are so ridiculously high in absolute and relevant terms.

If this picture was taken today, right wingers would roll their eyes at the wokeness. Because they're dumbasses.

I think you are saying the same thing?

I dunno, the video has 390k views in 6 days, and it's also a podcast.

It got them enough attention to make it to the CNN...

I'm always very confused by comments like this.

You say

I am not a big fan of “blame the system” when it’s people setting up airbnbs as it is more cost effective for them than regular renting.

Like, bro, what makes one option more cost-effective than another option? What do you call the set of rules, regulations, the set of institutions that create them and the set of relations and norms that govern the dependencies between the parts of society that end up creating this or that incentive structure? Because in my vocabulary, the easiest way to describe this concept is ...a system.

We need to self regulate ourselves somehow — give us another economic or political system, and the same inequalities and abuses will show up, I have not much proof but also no doubt. The system is not the problem, greed is, and it’s not capitalism-induced greed , it’s part of human nature.

This is such a meaningless statement. Humans operate within societies. Societies impose incentive structures and set up institutions that make certain activities easy and others hard. Certain behaviours are societally penalized, others are rewarded. It's the same species of humans that lives in countries with a lot of corruption and in countries without very little corruption for example. Same human nature here and there, but different outcomes. Changing, improving, reforming, replacing the system is a very meaningful discourse to have. It's literally what democratic politics is supposed to be about: how a citizenry decides what the common polity is to be.

Fico is not "far left". His party is associated with the Progressive Alliance, which internationally has members such at the UK labour party, the US Democratic party. He's a center-left populist, not some Trotskyist who wants to abolish private property of the means of production. So he is broadly in some extreme diluted sense of the word "left", but being pro-Putin doesn't make someone far left.

Seems like you're hanging out with the wrong crowd. Almost all of the jewish people in my circles are actively protesting it.

First of all, take your disrespectful and insulting little soundbites and shove them up your ass.

This response is a courtesy, and I'm going to focus solely on your policy suggestions. Further smarminess and disrespect are going to be left unanswered.

So:

Ban all foreign funding to religious institutions within the country

We already have a robust framework. See for example bill C51 of 2015. There is no evidence that people are being radicalized by imported preachers. In fact we have been exporters of Christian fundies and other crazies to the US for a while.

Deport any non citizen residing in the country immediately if they committed a serious crime

This is already explicitly the case, even for permanent residents.

Increase integration and assimilation programs for migrants

We don't do assimilation in this country, this is Canada. Our multiculturalism is constitutionally a key national value and a distinguishing element of our national identity. Multiculturalism is who we are.

For integration there are multiple programs such as the the CIIP, and Canada's sponsorship program allows refugees to be immediately integrated into a specific community. It has been wildly successful. The actual problem we have is with french lessons in Quebec that are a bit overwhelmed. So yea, increasing funding for programs for immigrants, sure, I'm with you there.

Change the national narrative about diversity from a mosaic to something more successful like a melting pot

Not gonna happen. And this is not some "narrative". Multiculturalism like I told you is a foundational element of our identity. It's so important it's in our Charter of Freedoms (equivalent to the US Bill of Rights", see section 27: “This Charter shall be interpreted in a manner consistent with the preservation and enhancement of the multicultural heritage of Canadians.” In this country, multiculturalism is literally in our definition of what it means to be free. No party will touch this.

Make it policy for the local police department to explicitly stand in solidarity of the victims in publicly circulated cases like this

You can't have a public policy that is about "publicly circulated cases". The law is the law. And the duties of police to protect fall squarely within their existing legal framework. But the problem more often than not is that violations to people's freedoms come from the police, not despite the police.

Require secularism and liberal values to be taught at all religious views

This is the closest you are getting to Canadian reality. Private religious schools need to follow the provincial curriculum as defined in each province. There has been in fact push back eg in Ontario about forcing them to teach sex ed. Quebec has similar requirements. The private schools don't like it, but they have to do it regardless. Public funding for private religious schools is definitely something many Canadians would like to see chopped.

Ban gender segregation at all educational institutions

That's not a thing around here.

Explicitly iterate that blasphemy and criticism of islam and other religions is NOT a hate crime, but a fundamental part of free speech

Our last blasphemy law was repealed a few years ago. I don't know what public policy would red "explicitly iterate" our Charter freedoms.

Establish a system to make it easier for children and women to more easily report domestic violence and abuse at home and quickly receive help, and add support in languages where islam and other radical religions are more prominent

Multiple systems for helping victims of domestic abuse exist. Canadian multiculturalism here means exactly that multilingual and culturally sensitive approaches are prioritized. But more funding for victims of abuse? Sure!

Establish a quickly accessible and reliable system to tip authorities about extremism that may lead to violence

The cons pitched a "barbaric practices" hotline a few years back that was a right joke. They are still being ridiculed for it and are trying to distance themselves for it.

Other than that, Canada does have a robust security and intelligence establishment thank you very much.
