The mainstream media, particularly in Canada, have become experts in exploiting herd mentality to manipulate public opinion. When you see a poll like "2/3 canadians don't trust USA," they are actively pushing a narrative to tell you what to think. Next month, it will be 3/4.

All political disagreements should come down to what we want. Never what is true. If we can't find common ground on what is true, we can never hope to achieve reconciliation on what we want.

Today I listened to a podcast that claimed that 48% of black US families have no father. So, I fact checked it. Google's AI overview starts by claiming that figure isn't accurate (and later refers to it as a "myth"), but then gives me the "true" figure, which was exactly the…

Peter Schiff explains in great detail how US import tariffs harm the USA, and benefits everyone else, and why retaliating harms Canada. Well worth the watch. youtube.com/watch?v=nDmnjk…

There seems to be a concentrated effort in media to downplay the regression of Canadian society toward chaos. People don't realize how bad it's getting. This isn't normal. Civilized countries should always become safer over time, never more dangerous.

Nobody knows what's real anymore. Every video getting posted online has scores of people claiming it's an AI fake. Welcome to the future. Where nothing will ever happen again, no weird animal exists, and all past atrocities ever committed on video are just deep fakes.

I had to do a bunch of research on "Web3" a few years ago for a job interview. Upon close inspection, it's 99% hype and buzzwords. Most things labeled as Web3 aren't even decentralized. And Web3 is not a practical replacement for the internet, making it a misnomer.

Canada has a problem. Home invaders don't care if you lock your door and have a camera or alarm, or if you are home with your spouse and dog calling the cops. They know you are unarmed, or too afraid of the law to defend your home using lethal force. Expect more of this.
