with grep I see all the alternatives, Ctl+R just shows me one

Streisand effect: the BBC is telling every last kid that VPN is exactly the way to circumvent the prohibition.

Without some deep top ticket populist reforms that very obviously change the lives of everyday people for the better, the angry fascistic no-future conservatives are guaranteed to take over.

But it has to be clear, obvious, immediate and real, and it has to signal there is a future that is worth actually building for. Which is the kind of stuff that for some reason are the stuff that are actually difficult for Liberals to do.

Nope. Most non western countries require a visa and it’s not easy to get one from Gaza.

Ummm…

Ah, yes, the “terrorize the natives” unit.

Britannia’s Huns with their long range guns. How brave they will face them with their 16-pounder gun and will frighten them natives to their marrow.

Colonial pricks. Call them Black and Tans while you’re at it.

I mean yea, Jews are indeed indigenous to the Levant. The problem with Zionism is that it denies the same reality for all the other peoples living there and declares that only Jews have a right to a nation state there. Palestinians are also indigenous to the Levant. The Druze, the Samaritans, the Bedouins, etc. also.

Who has claim? No one has claim. All have claim!

The thing to remember is that BDS is not a revenge inflicted to punish immoral individuals. It is not demonization and it is not bullying.

BDS is a nonviolent pressure tactic to get the Israeli government to change policies. It is giving an argument to civil society organizations to say “is the apartheid worth it for us?” and “can’t we just be a normal country?”.

Tourism Greece or actual Greece? Probably just tourism Greece, i.e., a fake product we sell to foreigners.

CS education is notoriously prone to boom-bust cycles.

That’s why we were saying pre-election, vote for a strong NDP to reign in the Liberals. And a bunch of Carney shills were throwing tantrums.

Yes, which means it will take clarity of vision, political courage, speaking the truth, and policy alternatives.

“Your equity will be halved but so will your mortgage because we oblige the banks to sell off half of it to the government, and we then forgive it.”

“Your equity will be halved but your kids will be able to raise your grandkids within a 20 minute drive from you.”

“Your equity will be halved but you won’t need to worry about your retirement because of our new old age quality of life program.”

Etc, etc. A government that actually wants to solve a problem can always do it. Just see how all obstacles can be made to disappear when it comes to national security issues.

Plus, you don’t need to convince everyone, just secure pluralities in a majority of ridings.

To note: the “peak of our civilization” he’s talking about was 1999. Which is arguably kind of on point.
