About Sevrene

    It feels like now you're saying it's not because it's parliament's nature to be like this, but rather these other factors that occure within parliaments and other systems? Can't yo…

    >untouchable due to Canada's parliamentary nature. This is an odd sentence to me, I assume there’s some reasoning under there that makes sense to the writer, but it doesn’t follow …

    Yeah you raise a good counterpoint, what you say is the other side of what I'm saying and totally valid. People can be manipulated, people need to put effort in to be virtuous- it'…

    It's possible we just see things different, I'm not sure why you're so keen to say I'm "profoundly confused"- entirely possible we just have different perceptions no? Lets be more …

    I don't really have an agenda but I have opinions I'm wanting to share & discuss– some of which I'm certainly wrong about. It doesn't feel to me as if you could honestly say the sa…

    I return to you "Have you not been paying attention?" Trump didn't rise to power because of democracy, it was in spite of it, Trump literally tried to overturn the election results…

    You've not understood what I said at all. I didn't ask for examples, I asked what you thought I was missing. Turns out I wasn't missing these things at all, we just disagree on the…

    It would be a lot clearer to everyone if you said what you think. I don't think it's extreme to believe that democracy is the best tool to fight authoritarianism. That's why people…

    The idea that democracy either created hitler or wasn't able to stop his rise via democratic action at all is often spruiked in anarchist communist circles, while it's true hitler …

    Zionism is when healthy information choices? I don’t trust infowars, sorry but that’s served me quite well over the years. I did look, you’re being obtuse again, after all how else…

    Can you expand on this, what do you think I'm missing?

    No sorry it wasn't a dig at you: the video was posted by someone who appears on Alex Jones' Infowars, talks jewish conspiracies. I just don't take that stuff seriously, doesn't mak…

    Small things I want to add or say: - It's not young adults, it's 15 and under. Personally I would classify 17-20something as young adult (it's a bit subjective isn't it). - The you…

    They are different laws with different contexts but the type of rhetoric and logic used to justify them are very similar, right? I already agreed they are not 1:1 nore was it meant…

    I think this is a bit of a conspiracy colordrops, honestly. It's the same sort of stuff as on Infowars.

    I bet you Sky news gets more views through social media than TV broadcast these days! Many of their hosts are all over X, spreading misinformation. They are downstream from social …

    Lower than you would like, maybe. I am just a single person, it's my own opinion. Where are you from? Do you speak for your entire nation?
