SJW have never had any actual power, yet white males still see them as threatening and trot out all kinds of false equivalence to back themselves up.
Gee. I guess that explains all those events that have been cancelled because of their violent threats and backlashes right? Or their attacks, doxing and so on against people who have a different ideological pov. Or university administrations that follow their lines of bullshit? How about when they throw a hissyfit and get advertisements pulled because it hurts their feelings. Or try to get people fired(sometimes successfully) for daring to have a different position. Nope, no power there at all. That's why none of that's happened right?
Oh dear Mashiki, still haven't got the hang of this fake news thing, have we?
Really? This is coming from the guy who has a video link to something that can be disproved in 15 seconds with a simple google search.
The claim is that it "echoes" Bane's speech, in terms of tone and meaning.
Except of course the part where they're not talking about the "tone and meaning."
See. to be fake news it has to be some fact that someone made up, not an opinion that something resembles something else and is quite funny if you do it in the Bane voice.
You mean the part where WAPO said: "But beyond the thematic similarities, a short section of Trump's speech sounded like it could have been lifted word-for-word from Bane. Watch and decide for yourself." Which is a complete fabrication? Whoops.
Then it's not fake news, now is it? If may be insignificant and not newsworthy, but it is not fake.
No it's fake news. The claims that the media have been pumping out is that Trumps inauguration speech was filled with things that Bane said, or some other sundry bullshit. WAPO: "This section of Trump'ss inaugural address sounds a lot like Bane from 'Batman'" Not sentence, section. Then there's this sentence: "But beyond the thematic similarities, a short section of Trump's speech sounded like it could have been lifted word-for-word from Bane. Watch and decide for yourself." Nice wording there don't you think? Then there's the whole "inauguration speech is dark" or filled with "divisive rhetoric echoing Bane" from MSNBC, and ABC's flappy headed nuts.
That's the very definition of fake. They're manufacturing news to drive clicks.
Uh no. This is the bullshit that social justice has created. People are screaming "SJW" because social justice warriors are the ones pushing the bullshit claiming that kimono's are cultural appropriation. Or wearing Halloween costumes are racist/sexist/misogyny or some other bullshit. They're the ones lining up to try and ban people from making speeches, and saying that people who don't follow the group think need to be banned. You know, like Peter Tatchell or Germaine Greer. You are authoritarians, you are engaging in authoritarian behavior. You think you're the good guys and you're not. You're everything you claim to fight.
We've heard Trump's inauguration speech with echoes of the villain Bane from the Dark Knight Rises
Oh boy, we've got someone pulling out their fake news. There was a single sentence that had a basic resemblance to Bane's speech. That single sentence: "We're giving power back to the people." That's it.
followed by the censorship of government agencies communicating actual science, and suffered through the administration's validation of "alternative facts."
Except the part where you read the "update" and find out that didn't happen. You enjoying the purveyors(buzzfeed and WAPO) of fake news telling you stuff yet? No? Just like the "russia is hacking the electrical grid" story that had to be retracted. Or maybe you're just in it for the confirmation bias.
I think it is safe to say that the Trump's administration's use of 1984 as an operating manual is not a mistake, though the emotional maturity appears to be more in line with Lord of the Flies.
Yes, that's why we've got all those leftists out there pushing no-platforming(aka shutting down dissenting views). Claims of "safe spaces" to shut down view points they don't like/want to hear/etc. Making claims that discussions on things like "college rape" are triggering and misogyny. Attacking people violently if they have different views. Trying to get viewpoints they don't like banned. But it's Trump that's doing it...really. I bet he's living rent free in their heads as well.
You don't seem to realize how tiny 1000sqft is. Let's look at it this way, those "mc mansions" that people talk about in the US? Those are usually in the 2500-3500sqft range. The average house in the UK? 1100sqft. Germany? The ones built in the east were around 750-950sqft, the west around 1008sqft. Most modern apt's in the west are in the 850sqft range. In other words, the houses in Ontario are average or below average in house size over the last 70 years.
That's because there is no sun in Ontario. You should move to Kelowna
Truth. The old joke used to be "all God does is piss on Ontario." But considering the clusterfuck you guys have going on out in BC? I'll take Alberta first and put up with -40C winters.
Yeah and where are people especially you guys in the US going to get your softwood lumber from? Or raw resources to manufacture well lot's of stuff. China? Trade-conflict minerals from Africa? Environmentalism in the US has done a bang up job of cutting and gutting a lot of the base supply items in the US, and you buy a shit pile of it from us. Won't happen. I don't mind living in Canada, but I expect reasonable prices and a non-fixed market. The price I pay down in FL is around 0.05kWh on peak via an electricity co-op. I have no choices here.
Ontario just put in a "carbon tax." So did Alberta. Guess what's happening? Well in Alberta your taxes on average will be going from around $9k/year to $15k/year....that'll be in a span of one year. Here in Ontario, gas prices jumped 0.20/L in the span of 2 weeks, and the price of basic food stuffs has already jumped 10%. Round that out that the federal government wants to do the same thing, and guess what the minimum cost impact on every-day goods is supposed to be? An increase of 20% and that's at the most conservative estimate. The least conservative estimate puts the general cost of goods over 70%
Your entire point falls flat on it's face when you realize that the policy that the ontario government negotiated was a near exact copy of the same regulations and laws used in Europe. And let's look down into the US, where those same policies are happening. What do we see? Again high FIT prices, consumers getting screwed, and people will start to feel the crunch in those states like MN and WI where the big push on this has happened within the next couple of years.
Maybe you should spend some time up here n Ontario, or other parts of Canada. Then you'll quickly realize just what's wrong with your entire post. To put it simply: People have good insulation, and other things. The biggest hit of high electricity prices always hits the poor and that's exactly what we're seeing here.
The average house in Ontario is around 1000sqft. The average monthly electrical cost is $200-300mo with other heating sources like NG or oil. Welcome to Canada, and welcome to Ontario. And enjoy this article right here. And when you get to the part about her "one month" hydro bill being $1000, let me know.
This is good in my book. It means that the Philippines, Singapore, Malaysia and so on will now get the absolute ass-reaming that the US would have gotten if they signed on with TPP. Any trade deal negotiated in secret from the people should be pissed on and burned at the first opportunity.
Mashiki, you were pushing the Pizzagate crap right up until that guy went in there with a gun and found nothing. The record is right here on Slashdot, you can't erase it. And well before that happened, multiple media outlets were saying they had investigated and it was complete bunk.
No, actually I wasn't. If you want to lie feel free, but that proof is right there -- in my post history. I mean it's not like you haven't been pushing the actual lie that gamergate is about harassment for 2 years or anything. Or that you've been discredited so hard that you run away every time over it.
And there's the part where you haven't looked at any of those podesta emails. Just a FYI, there wasn't anything "on the street" rather it was all in emails which repeatedly used similarities. And a second FYI, podesta was never secretary of state. Which is what it revolves around.
I'm personally not sure which was funnier with that gun bit. The fact that the media claimed that there was a shooting, when there wasn't any. Or that it wasn't actually about pizzagate in the first place. Oops, did you miss the retractions from the media on that one too?
No the line was that there would be no snow by 2010. You can dig up the PDF archived version and read it for yourself if you want. I'll give you a tip: These same theories were the same ones used in the 1920's, the only real difference is that they're using computer modeling instead of doing it by long hand.
Guess you can tell that to the people who are paying $700/mo for electricity and their kids are bundled up in coats because they can't afford the electricity to heat right? You're basically saying "fuck the poor, it's their own fault that they have electric heat." You really have no scope or scale of size of just how big Canada is and how much colder it gets here. So let's compare with say Germany, where your average winter temperature is 3C or UK? 5C. Where the average winter temperature in Ontario is -4C(the southern part), the northern part hit a balmy -10C...on average. Or how about Alberta? -12C still nice and warm right? That's not going to have an impact. How about when it hits -40C still good?
http://fit.powerauthority.on.c... Then check the normalized price across the province, it works out to being around 0.528 still. Because if you're a native, you get an extra payment premium on top from the province. Which is around $1.50kWh, across nearly all solar or wind projects. Those prices listed above are the normalized rates for anyone else. I'm talking about the actual and total overall cost.
So how's that environmentalism and nimbyism working in the US for you then? You know the same people who protest against offshore windfarms or nuclear power plants, or hydroelectric. Right. Solar is getting no where near to the price of coal. We're still paying 0.528kWh for solar here in Ontario, the price we were paying for coal when the last plant shut down was 0.043kWh.
Well not really, her sex does have something to do with it. A lot of people outside of the clique in that area believe she got the position because of the "wow look at us, much diverse" reasoning. Remember there's a really huge push to put minorities/women/etc into positions of power regardless of their abilities and skills because it looks just so awesome for the PR machine. They didn't really care about anything else, and it's not the first company that's done the same thing. And it's not the first company that suffered because of it either. Merit should be the only thing that counts, but you've got the retarded feminist groups and special snowflakes screaming that merit is a MRA construct, or sexist, or other bullshit.
A lot of people are, this policy is going to be something that will start to draw companies back out of China on top. It's easy to see the reasoning as to why they're implementing this policy though. It's Trump.(or if you're not a FT sub you can read the synopsis here.) Not him, in itself, but the idea that a populist can rise through the ranks and throw the entire establishment on end. Hell China has banned anything to do with the US election, is requiring heavy censorship on all CN sites that have comments over the election as well. They absolutely don't want people in their own country getting any ideas that even in democracies that someone can seriously upset the power balance and doing the same there.
Thanks man. Have a good one, it'll probably take a decade to fix the mess that's going on right now. And it looks like we've started seeing a rise of our own populist candidates against the establishment as well.

Let me toss in. That prices are so screwed up, that even leftwing sites like Huffington Post and the CBC are talking about it. And these prices are directly related to "green energy" plans and policies. That there are ~600k people who are in arrears 4mo or more. The largest hydro company in Ontario has 1.3m customers and serves 75% of the province to put that in perspective. That it's driving businesses out of the province to anywhere else that's cheaper.
Guess you can tell that to the people who are paying $700/mo for electricity and their kids are bundled up in coats because they can't afford the electricity to heat right? You're basically saying "fuck the poor, it's their own fault that they have electric heat." You really have no scope or scale of size of just how big Canada is and how much colder it gets here.

That's not going to have an impact. How about when it hits -40C still good?
That's the pricing for microfit. Just a FYI
http://fit.powerauthority.on.c... Then check the normalized price across the province, it works out to being around 0.528 still. Because if you're a native, you get an extra payment premium on top from the province. Which is around $1.50kWh, across nearly all solar or wind projects. Those prices listed above are the normalized rates for anyone else. I'm talking about the actual and total overall cost.
Not so much considering who owns most of the stock on those oil companies.
Teachers unions and pension companies(divisions)? Because that's who owns most of those stocks in those companies.
So how's that environmentalism and nimbyism working in the US for you then? You know the same people who protest against offshore windfarms or nuclear power plants, or hydroelectric. Right. Solar is getting no where near to the price of coal. We're still paying 0.528kWh for solar here in Ontario, the price we were paying for coal when the last plant shut down was 0.043kWh.
