It feels like now you're saying it's not because it's parliament's nature to be like this, but rather these other factors that occure within parliaments and other systems? Can't you unelect the MPs? Doesn't the

>untouchable due to Canada's parliamentary nature. This is an odd sentence to me, I assume there’s some reasoning under there that makes sense to the writer, but it doesn’t follow to me. It feels ‘just so’ to me, like there more to

Yeah you raise a good counterpoint, what you say is the other side of what I'm saying and totally valid. People can be manipulated, people need to put effort in to be virtuous- it's not always our default state. To not have a pare

It's possible we just see things different, I'm not sure why you're so keen to say I'm "profoundly confused"- entirely possible we just have different perceptions no? Lets be more charitable. I agree things ha

I don't really have an agenda but I have opinions I'm wanting to share & discuss– some of which I'm certainly wrong about. It doesn't feel to me as if you could honestly say the same. You don't want to believe w

I return to you "Have you not been paying attention?" Trump didn't rise to power because of democracy, it was in spite of it, Trump literally tried to overturn the election results and still subverts the people's choice

You've not understood what I said at all. I didn't ask for examples, I asked what you thought I was missing. Turns out I wasn't missing these things at all, we just disagree on the lessons learned there within. Fair enough, w

It would be a lot clearer to everyone if you said what you think. I don't think it's extreme to believe that democracy is the best tool to fight authoritarianism. That's why people like Trump deride democratic institutions an

The idea that democracy either created hitler or wasn't able to stop his rise via democratic action at all is often spruiked in anarchist communist circles, while it's true hitler wasn't voted in the literal sense, neither is

Zionism is when healthy information choices? I don’t trust infowars, sorry but that’s served me quite well over the years. I did look, you’re being obtuse again, after all how else would I know it’s from an infowars adjacent account. You st

Can you expand on this, what do you think I'm missing?

No sorry it wasn't a dig at you: the video was posted by someone who appears on Alex Jones' Infowars, talks jewish conspiracies. I just don't take that stuff seriously, doesn't make it wrong and if there's an argume

Small things I want to add or say: - It's not young adults, it's 15 and under. Personally I would classify 17-20something as young adult (it's a bit subjective isn't it). - The younger children don't really care abo

They are different laws with different contexts but the type of rhetoric and logic used to justify them are very similar, right? I already agreed they are not 1:1 nore was it meant to be. I agree with you there. If there's a more speci

I think this is a bit of a conspiracy colordrops, honestly. It's the same sort of stuff as on Infowars.

I bet you Sky news gets more views through social media than TV broadcast these days! Many of their hosts are all over X, spreading misinformation. They are downstream from social media now, not seperate from it I suspect. Murdoch benefits

I don't think we should normalise children on platforms where the content contains political agitation, sexual and violent content, crypto and fintech scams, etc. Especially when this content is packaged up to them and commodified. The

Instead of creating a working tree of text or the binary of shapefile, it creates a working tree with the geometry features. You can kart diff and commit features , not text or binary. You can then export those features from kart into a da

Sure no worries, I can see why that's not immediately obvious to everyone. I think people see laws and institutions encroaching on the internet as removing the 'wild west' aspect that existed on the internet in the early days

Lower than you would like, maybe. I am just a single person, it's my own opinion. Where are you from? Do you speak for your entire nation?

I’m an Australian who values privacy and civil liberties more than most I meet. While I yearn for the more authentic and sincere days of the internet I grew up on, I recognize very quickly by visiting x or facebook how much it isn’t that, a

Look inward, focus on yourself. Don't be sorry about it. If that means rest, or doing 'nothing' all day looking out a window or in nature don't feel bad it.

This reminds me of an article that talks about how sensory consciousness comes too late for conscious responses and how that might be 'rescued' by some yet to be proven quantum effects. I've linked it below, but here's a
