  • They likely believe they’re doing all this in God’s name even though it is entirely against the actual teachings of Jesus.

    He said also to the man who had invited him, “When you give a dinner or a banquet, do not invite your friends or your brothers or your relatives or rich neighbors, lest they also invite you in return and you be repaid. But when you give a feast, invite the poor, the crippled, the lame, the blind, and you will be blessed, because they cannot repay you. For you will be repaid at the resurrection of the just.”

    Luke 14:12-14









  • I haven’t strawman’d them, they literally say China, Russia, Iran and DPRK are great and the West is bad continually. There’s no nuance to their position. At no point have I seen any post or comment from the OP that says “you know what, there’s some good and bad on both sides and maybe we should strive to find the balance in our perspectives” (though I will admit, I haven’t specifically gone through their post and comment history to seek it out).

    It’s also not an ad hominem if I believe the person either doesn’t understand what they’re saying/doing or they’re intentionally saying/doing things because they’re themselves propagandised or being paid to say/do it.











  • Canadian teams just seem to not want to win. With Toronto more concerned with shooting themselves in the foot the moment they reach the playoffs every year; Winnipeg, Vancouver, Calgary and Ottawa more concerned with cycles of more or less mediocrity; Edmonton who have to rely on 2 players to get them through you’re left with the Habs who can’t seem to get it together for long enough to make a real impact though I really hope this time around is the one that sticks and I have hope!

    Canucks (my team) seem to be preoccupied with one more trade or one more overpaid free agent and we’ll squeak in but when that doesn’t work out they shit the bed again, just like this year and it’s looking worse the next with absolutely nothing in the cupboards (though the Calder cup win makes things look a little better). But we’re about to sabotage the career of the greatest player we’ve ever had because ownership refuses to have a genuine rebuild.
