We're in quite the state up here. One of our biggest problems is that Conservatives rule in many provinces, another problem is leakage of American conservatism up north, and a third problem is our PM is deeply unpopular despite, and I am willing to defend this, being one of the best PM's the country has had in my lifetime (40 years). It doesn't matter that one could fill a book with the PM's accomplishments, the guy has been tuned out by the population and honestly needs to retire. He has been around long enough to have accumulated enough ill will that he drags his party down, my party, and I hate saying it but I feel like he has to go before we end up with a conservative blowout and all the progress of the last decade is erased in just four years.

You could sign up for windscribe custom VPN plan, with 3 locations at I think $3 a month, when connected to the VPN you also can supress ads at the vpn/DNS level. Raspberry Pi and piHole will do it too, in your home network.

Peterson is bad because he appeals to lonely blue collar millennial men who, if they had positive male role models or better friends, would have a real chance of being actual decent people.

Tate is bad because he appeals to young men and boys who lack the life experience to know the guy is a loser and a grifter.

My opinion anyway.

Oh, 100%, society is underestimating the terrible influence Tate, Peterson, and similar grifters are having on men (especially younger men).

Big tough guy sucker punched an old lady. Trump would be proud if it were possible for him to give a shit about anyone but himself.

Betting markets can be swayed easily by wealth, sure. Another bias is that they're overwhelmingly frequented by young men.

Horrifying, get out and vote and bring as many friends as you can.

Two days from now timelines are going split. I don't know what will happen in both, but I can tell you for sure I'd like to avoid the timeline where Trump wins. If for no other reason than all the bad breath this single choice will cause.

I have to give props to the author for not beating around the bush. "Climate change destroyed Fort MacMurry" is absolutely true, even though most people won't say it.
