The linked page auto playing audio after it was opened, I can’t even find where on the page it is coming from. No matter how hard I try to disable options for this they always change or make new ones.

FYI turn down your volume if in public.

All media make editorial decisions.

You are being down voted because you didn’t answer the question you just complained about a conspiracy you’ve imagined.

The tax on non Muslims (jizyah) was in a way beneficial to creating a heterogenous environment. Anybody who tried to expel members of different faiths suffered an immediate loss of income and soon saw the err of their ways. And the more prosperous non-muslims are, the more tax they can pay, so it also gives a reason to take special care of them and help them to prosper.

I don’t think it was really such a big deal back then beyond your kind of baseline drama and conflict humans always get up to. But not much special aminosity between these two groups.

Christians tend towards higher than average belligerence but don’t over generalize from them.

everyone driving around with these dash cams and other devices, why can’t other drivers take pics of these people and submit them to have them fined?

each photo from a different perspective is and additional ticket. the more people you annoy the more it costs.

(better would be automatic cameras at intersections)

fuck look how rich you can get being a hate monger. he has dumped piles of cash into that place. cash he got by bigotting all over the place.

can someone book a tour and piss in his closet?

Conservative religious groups, and Mennonites are part of that, already have a strong distrust of government.

that’s not true. many governments around the world are substantially controlled by people who are members of conservative religions. and lots of conservative religious organizations are well integrated into their relevant governments. to the point of theocracies, which don’t tend towards being extremely progressive.

If you hear about a place that the Catholic Church is controlling party of the government, you don’t think “Oh I bet it’s some wild Liberation Theology situation where the women are free and there are land reforms to redistribute the land equally”. You know it’ll be some regressive, repressive backwards ass shit show.

there were Amish people (a related group) who were charged for not getting a covid vaccine passport

Where? Where has a “vaccine passport” even been implemented?

I mean I believe you because obviously something unusual has happened.

Really? Interesting. Do you have more info?

As of March 2025, the State of Palestine is recognized as a sovereign state by 147 of the 193 member states of the United Nations, or just over 75% of all UN members.

A plurality stands with the people of Palestine. 🍉

If I ever had a party I’d invite you.

Have fun shit talking the fucking military.

no need to be so nasty

Isn’t bylaw responsible for that?

The fact they were able to do this just shows the impunity of drivers at flouting the rules.

You have to bring your own gun?

well glad we settled that. :)

Let me know if Carney ever does anything about this after any amount of time… Other than offer them a contract, give them a business grant, or adopt some international policies that assist them in their evil deeds. Somehow I don’t think time is the limiting factor.

PS I did a websearch to check it hasn’t happened yet lest I be forced to immediately eat my hat. top hit is some job posting ala “GardaWorld From $18.50 per hour Carney, 08069, United States Full time” lol

kids never even pretending to wear helmets on these things

someone i know was going for a walk and chanced upon a mangled child waiting for EMS to show up

52 per cent of all e-scooter injuries we’re seeing involve riders below the legal age

Do they at least give these people and their kids some sort of traffic rules class or something?

I don’t know what the answer here is, it seems like a job for Public Health.

Give away free bicycles? What was wrong with bicycles?

I scrolled all the way up 10 levels of comments, where admittedly people are kind of riffing. You should do the same. The top comment is this:

Another beautiful canadian value that carney is talking about

And I don’t see anyone saying anything subsequent about shutting down of anything.

What I am saying is that this company is facially evil. They are not even putting on much of a show otherwise. They are likely violating all kinds of laws at different levels.

Any government can place laws, regulation and boundaries on the actions of companies which are housed within it. If you scroll up I linked to a federal department which does just that. Theymake decisions about enforcement. I think it would have been possible at any time over the history of this company for the federal government to make use of the tools at its disposal to prevent some horrors from taking place. Not doing so was and is a choice. This is a giant company and even if you or I just learns of it this week, the federal government has been aware of it for the whole time.

The other person was making a joke about Carney’s euphemisms. I think the government as a whole institution is to blame and PM is a component of it.
