No no, get it right. It's "Russian" phishing. Also it was Russian because they said so. Now remember to double or triple down and call everyone racist/sexist/homophobic/misogynist and keep wondering why this helped Trump get elected.
Obama had a long record(elected in politics in 1997), well as long as it was counted as "here" in the legislative house in Illinois. No, Obama had a history, he was in politics before coming president. Trump on the other hand has no political history, in turn doesn't even have the political ties that someone like Obama did at a state level.
Yet they didn't reach out to any of the other candidates, or in any of the other previous elections?
What the hell are you even talking about? Every candidate that runs for PM, President, hell even some that run for premier are in contact with a variety of leaders. I guess it's true then, the Israelis control the US. After Hillary, Romney and Obama were in contact with them during their presidential bids.
Damn if this form "diversity" doesn't piss me off to no end. It's insulting as fuck to believe that you need a hand up because "you got some yellow/black/brown/whatever in you." That if your genitalia is inside, or you've had it cut-off or grafted on because you want to be trans-whatever. Or you sexually identify as a high-power supercharged diesel locomotive. None of that's important. Skill, ability, and merit for the position are all that matter.
You didn't pay very good attention. But "Muslims" in general would be fine too. Or are you going to try to make the claim again that 90% or more of UK muslims including 1st and 2nd generation muslims are against gay marriage and 70-80% believed that gays should be simply murdered out-of-hand. Or the 70% beliving that beating a women is an acceptable method for controlling them.
That's not "stooping to their level" if it was, Trump would have called for the murder of gays in the USA and pushed for repealing domestic violence laws. Sorry kid, this comes right down to stopping people with incompatible social and religious views from entering. You guys in the UK are likely 5-10 years from that, if things simply don't snap and you see the re-rise of actual Fascism again.
Maybe you should look it up, there's your favorite search engine. Right there. The go read your posts.
You didn't get the part of an example? Colour me shocked, you want me to try again using small words so you can understand this time? Oh, but I haven't linked anything yet. And don't make demands of such, I did ask you in another reply if you ever read those CONleaks, which contain the names of people's viewpoints you like to signal over about how they're so righteous. And those same people were actively engaging in harassment and doxing. Or would you like to try and claim again that stuff written in their own hand, or their own quotes are "made up" even when they're identified by the people who were in them.
Don't worry, I don't make demands of things unless I can also do them myself. You on the other hand, seem to have basic reading and reasoning skill problems.
That actually explains a lot. It's creepy the way he stalks me too. He responds to about 70% of my posts.
Oh, that's only because you have this really nice tenancy to run away when anything approaching facts comes close to you. But then continue with the same bullshit you were peddling before with someone else. You know, kinda like how you're not replying to me...but still talking about me. In the grown-up world, we actually respond to small cowards that use this tactic.
The reason that many companies produce things in Canada is because it's: A close market, that market can afford the things you're selling without a huge markup. The products, and productivity is at, the same or above the same in the US. The lower dollar actively creates a higher margin if profit when selling them to the US. Let's go with a car. You make a car, it costs $6800. You can sell that Car in Canada for $35k, or in the US for $33k and still walk away with a nice tidy profit.
In the end, there's no unfavorable conditions that whiny leftist regressives could cry over though.
Seriously? What a pile of bullshit. Even papers like WAPO, NYT, USAToday, etc had teams dedicated to go after Trump because they didn't like him. You think that they couldn't fact-check what he was saying? Either you're drinking the kool aid, hard. Or you're still a part of that 10% of Americans who has trust in the big news networks.
Slightly bad wording, but it's close enough. "Forced" under the facade of diversity, and the threat that if you "don't hire xyz person, you're a racist/sexist/misgynist" etc. And there's dozens of organizations that operate like a shakedown group against companies for this to happen. Melissa Myers is probably the best. She wasn't the best candidate, she wasn't the best choice, there were dozens of other choices. Her selection was mainly based on her sex, not on her skills.
Hell we've seen this in Canada with Trudeau and his "diversity cabinet" wanting 50% of it to be women. Were they the best in their class? Nope. Were they top of their field in Canada? Nope. Were they known and respected for their ability in Canada for the position they were being put in by people in those various fields? Nope. Most of them have no background at all in the field they were placed in, many were political neophytes, had zero political experience, most had never even operated a business, done any form of negotiation in their lives either. The media fell all over itself, the internal flapping heads said it was a good idea. But it's been nothing short of disastrous for policy in Canada, the people selected are not only out of touch with the electorate, they have no understanding of the portfolios they're supposed to manage.
True. I am trying to master the art of using his rage against him, like a kind of verbal judo. By holding up a mirror to his posts, sometimes I can make people see how absurd they are, how far divorced from reality he is.
Divorced from reality means the actual statements of a person/group/actions shown to you. Gotcha. That makes plenty of sense, or let's jump back to the actual post. Or are you going to claim that the Crown and inquiries recorded numbers are fake? Perhaps you'd like to claim that when the head of the inquiry said "he cases continue to be on-going in Rotherham, and the police and council continue their stonewalling under fear of being labeled racist." I'm sure the person you're replying to will come flying out now and say "but source..." or something. Despite it having linked FOI documents.
My weakness is framing. The alt-right is really good at framing stuff in a way that makes their position seem reasonable. I need to be better at countering that.
Having said that, I try to limit the number of times I reply to him. It's quite depressing and tiring.
That moment when you believe that someone is alt-right, but in reality it's all made up in your mind. Just like you believe that there's rage. Instead of my absolute pity for you, that despite having the proof of something jammed under your nose, you'll disregard it because it doesn't fit your political agenda. Which you hold more dear, then the actual lives your ideology is effecting.
This coming from the same person that doesn't accept the actual quotes of someone, or the actions of a person which are directly linked to them? Ever get around to reading the CONleaks that showed your favorite social justice warriors were engaged in harassment or doxing? Or would you like to claim again even though they were verified by two people who were in them, that they were indeed legitimate.
Really? How many women are CEOs of Fortune 500 companies? How many women have been president? Vice president? How is it that over half the population is women and yet they account for only 20% of congress? If you honestly think it is a level playing field then you are either delusional or sexist.
Why does it matter? Why do you want to force people into positions that they don't want? Why do you believe that someones genitals, or sexual identity is important? Do you also believe the same thing about an individuals race? Why does it seem your most important qualification to hire someone, or have them in office is something that they're born with.
All of those things? If you want to put people a head of others based on characteristics that they were born with instead of their skill, ability, or the earned merit that they gained from hard work. You're no different then a sexist that believed that only men could be doctors or politicians in the 1910's and earlier. Or a racist in the 1960's that believed those "blacks and/or mexicans" could never be educated enough to succeed.
Just remember, your Hydro One does have a significant profit.
Feel free to tell your provincial government that you don't like the results of their deregulation.
Just remember Hydro One isn't owned by the provincial government. Feel free to remember that Ontario doesn't have deregulated electricity prices, it has a government sanctioned monopoly and cartel, which is enforced under law.
No all muslims pretty much. He didn't distinguish.
There's that part where you can't read again. You ever figure out how to click on a link that shows you're wrong? Or get your eyes checked when you can't read direct quotes on something. Well I can't say it doesn't make it amusing when you say one thing, and the evidence to the contrary let's you make an ass out of yourself.
He considers the fundie nutcases just as second class as the guys running the local shop who give unending "store credit" to the local down and outs for buying food.
Well you have shown in the past you're really good at virtue signaling. It's much more difficult to have actual standards and principals though, let me know when you actually start doing more then paying lip service for something...as long as it's not expedient for you.
Using the number of Americans"not in the work force" is inaccurate and dishonest.
Only counts when it's a democrat in the white house right? FYI that 95m number includes those over the age of 18 only. So yes it counts your parents who are retired, but does not count those other people.
Keep in mind that the U6 also has a "fall off" period. If you're unemployed and given up and it's been more then I believe 4 years, you fall off the U6 number as well.
Why is it a bad idea to try to prevent them bombing the utter shit out of our allies? R or D shouldn't matter, if we are going to be in there at all we need to look after our allies or risk them turning against us.
Which allies are that? The ones backed by the DOJ and fighting for Assad, or the ones backed by the CIA and fighting against Assad and the US backed forces. Might surprise you but turning around and playing with kid gloves didn't work, and there was no literal turn around until Russia got involved and started bombing the hell out of the pro-islamist groups.
Asian = people from Asia, i.e. Pakistan, India, Bangladesh. We tend to refer to what American's call Asian as East Asian or just by country of origin (Chinese/Japanese). We never call people from the middle east Asian, they are Arabs and various other races. Well, except for racist retards who don't know the difference between types of dark skinned people.
You'd better let your media know right away then, because they can't seem to figure it out either. I'm not American, just a FYI. And by the way, muslim isn't a race...no matter how much you try to push that bullshit either.
Most of those convicted were born in the UK. They were not immigrants, they were the children of immigrants who arrived in the 60s and 70s. I'm not sure why you think it has to be one or the other, the division of time into decades is arbitrary and doesn't constrain people's ability to immigrate.
Court cases seem to differ on that around 50% of them were "new" immigrants. The others however built up their own ideology and promoted that it was acceptable under Islam as well, and in two cases tried to use Islam as a "reason of the day" as to why they were allowed to groom under-age girls for sexual use. Not forgetting that the people(asians or pakistanis which ever you prefer) in the area, pressured the police, councils, crown, and so on to ignore it all because "looking into it would be racist." That's according to the federal investigation, which is still on-going. You can pretend all you want that there wasn't a culture of political correctness protecting one segment of people from another, but even the crowns investigation says otherwise.
As for employing only American citizens, that's fine as long as you don't mind giving up cheap products and services. Let's see what happens when manufacturing comes back from China and costs 5x as much, or maybe Trump will get rid of the minimum wage to compensate. If your immigration policy wasn't so fucked up in the first place you wouldn't have this problem with undocumented people, and in any case they are not to blame for your problems.
5x as much? You obviously don't know what the actual manufacturing costs vs profit motive of items are. There's nothing actually wrong with US immigration policy. The problem is that it's not enforced, and it's not being enforced because the current administration and DoJ has been leaning on ICE not to enforce it.
And what the fuck does that have to do with legal, above board immigration like H1-B? Do you really think Trump, a billionaire who made his money by employing immigrants over Americans, will stop that lucrative source of cheap labour?
H1B's aren't immigration. They're the importing of labor. You seem to forget that he's been railing against policies like this since the 1980's? Or do you think he's such a stupid and piss poor businessman that he would ignore profitability vs a shareholder/stockholder revolt that would strip him of controlling interest in his own companies. By the way, you should know that between the US and UK, there is really only one difference in immigration policies. Anchor babies. And that all comes right back to government bodies telling those who should be enforcing the laws not to. Keep in mind, that the democrats are very pro-illegal immigration going as far as setting up sanctuary cities.
To compare, this would be like Libya and the UK being neighbors. And London or Edinburgh actively engaging pro-illegal immigration policy for people from Libya, while refusing to prosecute them for breaking the law. Any law, while giving them every perk except for citizenship under the sun.
Trump's policy is to treat "Muslims" as second class human beings. You can't undo voting for that easily.
You mean those "muslims" in fundamentalist countries, that already treat women, blacks, and anyone who doesn't follow their belief as second class human beings? Oh, I forgot. Restricting immigration from those countries is "bad" just like ensuring that you have national borders is bad.
All that matters is that they have insurance. Whether they can afford it is immaterial to the talking heads.
Pretty much. Makes for great talking points, poor people and those barely making ends meet? Not so much. Reminds me of the state of electricity prices here in Ontario. It's become so expensive that the poor now need coverage to pay for it, and the taxes on it have been cut by 8% But don't mention that 70k people have had it cut, or that 700k are now 4mo or more in arrears. The gov' is just doing great by them!
It may very well be 15%, but the quoted 4.9% is published using known methods that we can independently validate. Can you do the same? Or is this the new Trump era where just saying so is good enough?
Well that depends, do you think that 4.9% is accurate when there are 95m people not in the labor force and food stamp numbers have gone up by 20%. Or do you think that the 10% is more accurate? Keeping in mind that 10%(U6) is the rate far more accurate then the U3, but keeping in trend over the last 10 years when you compare everything with U3 and U6 data the rate works out to being roughly 15%(14.7% if you don't want to quibble). Not forgetting that the 4.9% can't be independently validated either, even using the official figures since the "self-reporting" number is very hit or miss. Gallup's unemployment rate numbers which are nationally sampled put's their U3 rate at around 5.9%. Now, figure that 20% of that 95m are retirees that still at a higher rate in the 1970's when women weren't in the workforce like they are today. Couple that with extremely stagnant wages for the last decade. Toss in that even the white house's own explanation that the U3 number is low because boomers are leaving the workforce, and that pushes the U3 unemployment rate lower.
Trump doesn't give a shit about the law or about the people he claims to represent. He has been screwing ordinary, hard working Americans his entire life. Using cheap immigrant labour to build his business empire, setting up scams like Trump University. He's a billionaire who was given a huge loan by his parents, not a man of the people.
Oh good, now we've got your bullshit out of the way. Remember that part where Hillary wanted to enforce no-fly-zones against Russia in Syira, and operated multiple pay-for-play scandals?
You know nothing about Europe. The child abuse in Rotherham was by people of Asian descent, mostly from Pakistan. They and their parents mostly came here in the 60s and 70s, before we even joined the EU, from our old Commonwealth empire. I happen to be half Asian, so FUCK YOU for even playing the race card.
Oh so which is it? They're asian or pakistani? They came here in the 60's and 70's? Or multiple people who were arrested were "new immigrants" and were in their 20's and 30's. According to the court records. I also happen to be half-asian(actual half-asian, not the lovely code-word that UK and EU media likes to use for people from the middle east). So fuck you for trying to be a weaseling little shit, and trying to crawl out of it.
Deporting people isn't going to make America great again, unless you think working for pennies on the Dollar is great.
Gotcha. Ensuring that companies actually employ americans = bad. Stopping the flow of illegals that cause crimes = bad. Bet you're right there cheering on H1B's replacing Americans and them being forced to train their replacement too.
Well you should be sorry. All those whiny regressive liberals are threatening to come to Canada. We've got enough of those up here already trying to destroy the country and make sure you can't even afford electricity.
Unless you get sick, and can no longer get health insurance...
Considering people are already hitting the point where they can't afford the health insurance in the first place. Hell my buddy in Alaska saw his premium go from $400/mo w/2200 deductible to $1100/mo w/$9000 delectable. Can you afford that? My neighbor in Central Florida? Well he's lucky, his 28 year old daughter and her husband? Nope. $250/mo pre-obamcare to $4800/mo with w/14k deductible? A lot of people are now worse off then they were before.

To compare, this would be like Libya and the UK being neighbors. And London or Edinburgh actively engaging pro-illegal immigration policy for people from Libya, while refusing to prosecute them for breaking the law. Any law, while giving them every perk except for citizenship under the sun.
Trump's policy is to treat "Muslims" as second class human beings. You can't undo voting for that easily.
You mean those "muslims" in fundamentalist countries, that already treat women, blacks, and anyone who doesn't follow their belief as second class human beings? Oh, I forgot. Restricting immigration from those countries is "bad" just like ensuring that you have national borders is bad.
All that matters is that they have insurance. Whether they can afford it is immaterial to the talking heads.
Pretty much. Makes for great talking points, poor people and those barely making ends meet? Not so much. Reminds me of the state of electricity prices here in Ontario. It's become so expensive that the poor now need coverage to pay for it, and the taxes on it have been cut by 8% But don't mention that 70k people have had it cut, or that 700k are now 4mo or more in arrears. The gov' is just doing great by them!
It may very well be 15%, but the quoted 4.9% is published using known methods that we can independently validate. Can you do the same? Or is this the new Trump era where just saying so is good enough?
Well that depends, do you think that 4.9% is accurate when there are 95m people not in the labor force and food stamp numbers have gone up by 20%. Or do you think that the 10% is more accurate? Keeping in mind that 10%(U6) is the rate far more accurate then the U3, but keeping in trend over the last 10 years when you compare everything with U3 and U6 data the rate works out to being roughly 15%(14.7% if you don't want to quibble). Not forgetting that the 4.9% can't be independently validated either, even using the official figures since the "self-reporting" number is very hit or miss. Gallup's unemployment rate numbers which are nationally sampled put's their U3 rate at around 5.9%. Now, figure that 20% of that 95m are retirees that still at a higher rate in the 1970's when women weren't in the workforce like they are today. Couple that with extremely stagnant wages for the last decade. Toss in that even the white house's own explanation that the U3 number is low because boomers are leaving the workforce, and that pushes the U3 unemployment rate lower.
Trump doesn't give a shit about the law or about the people he claims to represent. He has been screwing ordinary, hard working Americans his entire life. Using cheap immigrant labour to build his business empire, setting up scams like Trump University. He's a billionaire who was given a huge loan by his parents, not a man of the people.
Oh good, now we've got your bullshit out of the way. Remember that part where Hillary wanted to enforce no-fly-zones against Russia in Syira, and operated multiple pay-for-play scandals?
You know nothing about Europe. The child abuse in Rotherham was by people of Asian descent, mostly from Pakistan. They and their parents mostly came here in the 60s and 70s, before we even joined the EU, from our old Commonwealth empire. I happen to be half Asian, so FUCK YOU for even playing the race card.
Oh so which is it? They're asian or pakistani? They came here in the 60's and 70's? Or multiple people who were arrested were "new immigrants" and were in their 20's and 30's. According to the court records. I also happen to be half-asian(actual half-asian, not the lovely code-word that UK and EU media likes to use for people from the middle east). So fuck you for trying to be a weaseling little shit, and trying to crawl out of it.
Deporting people isn't going to make America great again, unless you think working for pennies on the Dollar is great.
Gotcha. Ensuring that companies actually employ americans = bad. Stopping the flow of illegals that cause crimes = bad. Bet you're right there cheering on H1B's replacing Americans and them being forced to train their replacement too.
Well you should be sorry. All those whiny regressive liberals are threatening to come to Canada. We've got enough of those up here already trying to destroy the country and make sure you can't even afford electricity.
Unless you get sick, and can no longer get health insurance...
Considering people are already hitting the point where they can't afford the health insurance in the first place. Hell my buddy in Alaska saw his premium go from $400/mo w/2200 deductible to $1100/mo w/$9000 delectable. Can you afford that? My neighbor in Central Florida? Well he's lucky, his 28 year old daughter and her husband? Nope. $250/mo pre-obamcare to $4800/mo with w/14k deductible? A lot of people are now worse off then they were before.
