Content is too low to be effective. The kid would have to eat a lot of poppy seed muffins for that to work. Remember that when it shows up in tests, it's registering as a trace amount.
Canadian IT workers too. For a typical job posting, *after* resumes are screened, I still get about 100 candidates with only 30% or so Canadian citizens.
Canadian IT workers are getting the same fuck-over that the ones in the US are. Even the big banks have been pulling this bullshit up here, the Royal Bank that decided they were going to can their IT dept., and replace them all with out-of-country workers and then used the TFW program to fill the positions.
If anything, this should be a warning to Americans of just how bad this can get. That Canada has between 6% and 14% just why do you need to import foreign workers when people who live here can't find work. Here's an article on welders being laid off or contracts cancelled and being replaced. You can also see this website here which is covering the TFW abuse. The reality is Canada is now having a populist rise just like in the US, it might take a few more years. But considering the huge upswing in temporary jobs and contract jobs, and people being laid off from full time work, while TFW's are being brought in? There will be a reaction.
Considering it's one of the top 50 websites in the US? Has a larger pull then the Washington Post. Yep. Perhaps you should go spend some time reading something that's ideologically different then what you regularly do. Or maybe you can enjoy this little nugget, from an ideologically similar organization called media matters. Which has decided to go full propaganda. TP and MM have worked together on multiple things, get funded by the same people. Time to realize that the sources you're using are full-on propaganda arms that are lying.
The TFW program is being abused badly and more so since Trudeau loosened the rules that Harper had put into place. More people are losing their jobs to imported workers, and not just the very bottom rung. But skilled tradesman like welders, pipefitters, machinists and so on. The process isn't stringent enough here in Canada, and companies have already figured out how to abuse it.
As long as North America insists on persisting their "My ignorance is just as valid as your knowledge", this problem will never go away, and people will continue to die.
EU countries were the big push behind the whole "homeopathic" garbage. The literal insanity has started going so deep that people are starting trust things like astrology as a legitimate form of health treatment. This isn't a "NA going nuts" thing. It's a people are going stupid because they're being duped by snake oil salesman.
Wild accusations, no links or evidence... Fuck off Mashiki.
I'll use the same quote you used against me. "It's all right there, in your post history." Which you never actually could prove. Grow the fuck up, or get some mental help. I don't care which, but you apparently have a serious case of BPD in which case your meds are fucked up, or it's undiagnosed.
People in GG don't care if someone labels them as Hitler or worse then isis(both of which the game journos have used), to label people who belong to it. GG was never about the PR battle, which is why their smear campaign failed. If anything, it simply gives us more ammo to show just how shitty these so-called journos actually are. As a kicker, the person who started the "GG is worse then ISIS" was Devin Faracci...who's disappeared after apparently committing a sexual assault. He virtue signaled hard. Another one would be Matt Hickey a journo who wrote hit piece after hit piece on GG full of actual lies. He was forced out by the publication he was writing for, then it came out that he had apparently committed multiple rapes, sex by deception, and so on. That case is still a head of the courts. Leigh Alexander for example was forced out by Gamasutra after her disastrous "gamers are dead" articles and shuffled around from site-to-site, each of which has failed.
If you have time, you can watch one of the original "wtf happened" videos. It'll give you a background on what happened(approx 55min) Or GG in 60 seconds. I haven't touched on the "social justice" backlash against minorities who were in GG either, including their attacks, attempts to dox, and successful harassment of them for daring to tell the white-upper-middle class elitists to fuck off because really, you don't speak for me. Which went on under the "#notyourshield" tag. (approx 6min long). The amount of vitriol spewed by supposed people who support minorities for "walking off the plantation" was nothing short of extraordinary, and showed a lot of people that people in the social justice circles were nothing but closet racists and bigots. This likely one of the big things that started the whole "sjw's = cancer" bits, which has hit mainstream. And they did it all by their own actions.
If you don't care that's great. Other people will do the work on your behalf to stop these shitty people who are trying to create a desert of political correctness from ruining your hobby and my hobby.
The real problem is that these individuals are trying to displace existing things because it hurts their feelings. They demand special concessions, or shoehorning into stories. Attack artists for daring to draw sexy characters and so on. They don't want to make their own stuff, they want to be included in existing stuff and engage in shake-down like behaviors against developers to try and get their stuff included. This isn't any different then the bullshit you see with people like Sharpton demanding companies "kiss the ring" or they'll suddenly have racism problems.
It's nothing to do with journalism or critics. It's about harassment. That's it. Everything else is just a smokescreen. Don't get sucked in.
Stop lying. You can throw every hissyfit that you want but GG won and you know it. They got their ethics policies on most of those sites that they had problems with. Those sites that did so are doing better, sometimes climbing fast in website rankings. Those that didn't are failing, or have shutdown completely in the last 2 years. The people who wrote the "gamers are dead" articles? Most of them are out of the game journo industry. We got our updated disclosure links as well via the FTC.
Funny that going on 3 years you still can't actually prove any type of harassment from people in GG. Your biggest show of force is a random IRC channel which has no names of any of the people involved, which can't be linked back to anyone. But you throw a hissyfit when people link you the CON leaks showing that people like Quinn, Wu, and people directly linked to Sarkeesian(Cross), engaged in a harassment campaign, and doxed people.
You should. Let me know when you get the intellectual strength to read something that is going to show the worst of what Wu actually is. It'll be amusing when you see that it's right as well.
You mean your stance that people should be silenced for speech? I remember when you threw a hissyfit when I pointed that out. Then got your panties in a twist, when I pointed out that even "bad speech that's legal" should be allowed. Strange though that you're suddenly claiming you've reversed your view. How about when you were happily supporting safe spaces? No platforming? Blocking dissenting viewpoints that are contrary to presented view? Those are all views that you've held over the last year.
You upset that they actually have a more in depth article on the actual batshit insanity of Wu then you care for? It's pretty hard to fake their own craziness.
So you're saying that the above linked image showing that yes they were attempting to fish and got caught at doing it(which is why it was deleted), isn't an example that yes. Wu is batshit insane, and there is the possibility that they were creating dummy accounts in the first place.
Does anyone still read "journalist" articles about games? Half of them are paid ads anyway, the other half is worded in a way that reeks worse of copy/paste than the average answer from a tech supporter. If you care for other people's opinions on games, read reviews from other players on Steam.
That's why it happened in the first place. Because people had enough, and it exploded when the media decided to double down and pull out the "gamers are dead" articles. Then rounded that out with mass censorship on any discussion of it. The comment graveyards on reddit are still around, some are huge 25k+ deleted comments? 5k+ here or there on it? Yep. The gamejournopros leaks. The "writers" shilling for their friends/buddies shit and not disclosing it? Those same writers being in a gigantic circle jerk of undisclosed payments from various people in the indie industry as well. Keep in mind that this wasn't the start, this had been building since the days of Kane and Lynch and the Dorito Pope.
The icing on the cake was simply all the bullshit that sites like polygon, kotaku, rps, and so on have tried to push. Things like "GTAV is sexist" or why your vidya makes you a violent killer. Along with the big "vidya is sexist" so we need to create a safe space for the special snowflakes, and you need to give them special concessions because they're special. Which kinda goes against the entire "git gud" line(aka merit is all that matters) that gaming is built around. If anything it's simply exposed that the above mentioned sites are cancerous identity politics engines. And even media like the BBC or NPR have no problems pushing that same line of reasoning as long as it gets them what they want.
Funny thing on that. You know that the usual social justice clique likes to scrub her out of history because she likes to make things that cater to her audience. Much like how they like to scrub Mari Shimazaki who was the artist and character designer for so many AAA games, and how she not only likes "sexy female characters" but has no problems designing male ones to pander or give fan service. Or they like to complain about manga's which have a very high level of female storyboard writers or lead-artists/illustrators.
Oh...Zennistrad. They were one of the people involved in "CON" the same organization that has operated doxing, and harassment campaigns against people while claiming to be an anti-harassment organization. Also, Wu is directly linked to CON as well. Whoever is running against Wu is going to have so much dirt of their garbage that they likely won't survive the primary.
It's not a biased source. It's an untrustworthy source, that's the difference. Then again you know what the difference between think progress and breitbart is? The former has a bunch of people sitting in a room, taking things out of context. The latter has people out in the field writing about what they saw.
Yes. The Encylopedia Dramatica article on Wu is probably the most informative thing out there. But yes, harassing themselves on Steam from their dev account. Also when they claimed they "fled their home" they were suddenly back, and giving interviews. Then there was the times they tried to claim "gamergate was going to use sarin gas at pax." Funny thing about that, it was one of their own anti-gg supporters who made the threat. You can find all that in the ED article.
So I guess Obama had business dealings there to? Or was he working for Trump?
No it just proves that Obama was a russian puppet, and had a fetish for golden showers. He even sold that bed for the hookers to piss on. It's all connected. I'm sure we'll find out in time that Obama was actually there, and his body double was off golfing somewhere. See? Makes perfect sense now.
Joking aside, it amuses me to no end the absolute batshit insanity of the left when Trump is using the exact same stuff list that Obama did, and when Obama temporarily banned immigration from those exact same countries. Not only did he stop immigration from various countries. He did it 6 times during his tenure as president. But where were the media? Nowhere. Where were these leftist agitators? Nowhere. Where were all these lawyers suddenly coming out of the woodwork trying to fight against it? Nowhere. These challenges have no merit, and the president has had this enshrined right since the early days of the US founding.
Using think progress for anything other then to mock, shows just how deep in that ideological hole you are. They're very well known for quote mining, out-of-context statements, and outright fabrications.
I agree, but still can't work out why the reaction was to vote for the poster boy of the elitist creeps.
Because he's a populist, and not one of those elitist creeps. There is no beltway people who can lean on him, his worst fault in "elitism" is that he's a businessman who knows others businessmen and has worked within the system that has been created by crony capitalists. If you don't understand just how much of a fundamental disconnect there is between both parties in the US and "average people" who don't live in the big metro areas...well you need to go look around a bit. Hell come up to Ontario, Canada. You can bathe in the entire thing. The provincial and federal Liberal parties in both cases are likely going to give rise to a populist leader in both cases as well.
Trump and his ex-Goldman Sachs advisors are among the ones that really fucked the place up in 2008 and have been getting in the way of the recovery.
Time to step away from the media sources you've been reading and start reading well anything else, from everywhere else.
Presumably you are referring to the description of GamerGate as a harassment campaign. 15 seconds with google can confirm this. If you disagree, feel free to dispute all 256 references in that article.
That's easy to do. Look at the talk page, keep in mind that not only is there still edit warring and gate keeping going on, along with mass deletions.
Christ on a bike Mashiki, your own carefully selected quote from TFA proves you are an illiterate idiot.
You're proving my point. Thanks for that. So far all you've done is prove that you have no grasp of actual politics, political nuance, or that the media made the claim -- which is the point. That they're trying to link Trump to the villain Bain for their own devices. That is inventing news, that in itself is fake.

I mean, opium would probably deal with teething pain too, but your pharmacist is hardly going to give it to your for teething).
Here in North America, growing your own in your garden and giving babies "poppy water" was very common right up until the 1970's for teething.

No, the people who would send undesirables off to the gas chambers and ovens are part of his establishment.
Still haven't figured out why you lost huh? Keep digging. You're doing a great job.
The last sentence isn't a fabrication. The article itself in order to generate clicks is a fabrication. Figure it out yet?
