Canadian parliament gives standing ovation to honor Charlie Kirk.
-
You cannot be a good person and a nazi, you are still a nazi.
-
Conservative MP for Lethbridge Rachel Thomas pays tribute to Charlie Kirk in the House of Commons, calls for the defence of free speech and against political violence. She gets a standing ovation from the Conservatives and the Liberals.
Emphasis mine.
So a Canadian talks about defence of free speech when we don’t even have free speech as a right. We have limits on what we can say.
-
Maybe if all the “strategic voters” had even a little bit of a spine. “I prefer the NDP but I need to vote NDP! Hey, why does the NDP not get any support?!”
How many Canadians flatly refuse to vote for what they believe while being mad that the government isn’t reading their minds? We aggressively signal that we do not want the NDP and then get mad that they aren’t the thing we keep showing them that we do not want. Get a clue.
Sorry I’m a xis make the current NDP doesn’t want me there is no fucking way I’m voting for them.
-
She’s welcome to listen to what she wants, i was just surprised the respect she had for him given he wants a world where she wouldn’t have rights.
So she’s stupid just like the minorities who cited for Trump. I’ll never understand them.
-
Read the article, title is clickbait.
They could have made the speech without mentioning him or mentioning others. How come no speech when two Democrats politicians shot? How come only when some conservative asshole who isn’t even a politician?
-
Misleading title. Yes, Charlie Kirk’s assassination sparked a conversation about the importance of free speech and disavowing political violence. The standing ovation was not for Charlie, but for the outcome of that speech.
Still, you’d think they’d at least TRY to be reasonable with the optics of the conversation.
That countservative hag’s words made them stand for Kirk.
-
Why the fuck is our supposedly liberal government giving standard ovations to conservative pundits? What do they hope to accomplish by pushing this rhetoric? Right wingers will never see this and think “wow maybe I’ll vote liberal next election” you fucking idiots. I hate everything.
I wrote to my MP because of this. Absolutely disgusting behaviour to appalled Kirk and they fell for it.

Stop being so butthurt about some bad wording in a doc, you were never gonna vote NDP face it
-
Does anyone know what’s going on in this context? Is this a part of the trade negotiations or something?
It’s part of Carney and the shitlibs sucking the US and Trump off, elbows down you might say. Capitulation, praise and acquiescence is their modus operandi. They have no intention of standing up for Canada, it’s all been lies.
-
yeah see the thing about this is that most people would say that good stuff
but good people don’t also say the bad stuff
and anybody who thinks somebody is good solely because they said some good stuff is a fucking idiot, you have to consider the bad and change your view accordingly (like hopefully that woman did). but most maga nutjobs aren’t rn, they just ignore what they don’t like
-
Liberalism is inherently a right wing political ideology. It uses socially progressive issues for the working class to promote financial and commercial policies that benefit the ruling class.
Correct.

You cannot be a good person and a nazi, you are still a nazi.
Of course he isn’t a good person, he is a fucking Nazi and deserved what he got
I think the point is that just about everybody who thinks this was a good guy is like a Christian; they’ve only been fed the positive parts and blurps, and are wholly ignorant of the dark side of the subject because they were never shown what it really was about
I think we need to continue posting his real messages

Our country is governed by chronic losers and fucking idiots.

You’re a what
-
Disgusting.

The liberals did not give a standing ovation to charlie kirk. It was performative political theatre from the cons. A conservative MP made a statement praising kirk, framing kirk as a beacon of family values. The liberals could rise to support those values or remain sitting and be accused of supporting political violence. It was a no win situation set up by the cons. The next day the libs had a “standing ovation”. If you are outraged by the story ask yourself who wins from your outrage.

What is with all this ‘deserved what he got’ insanity? I know it’s the internet and all, but calm down. He was a person, flawed just like the rest of us. He had views that many of us found disagreeable, just like everyone else.
Black people are upset that he died, gay people are upset that he died, trans people are upset that he died; why? Because he wasn’t some evil extremist calling for violence. He was a moderate and calling for debate.
Where is all this hate towards Kirk coming from? And please don’t cherry pick a handful of out of context quotes. There are thousands of hours of video discrediting all these random quotes people are using to showcase his villainy.

If I hear anyone ranting about family/traditional values Im just going to cut to the chase and assume you consume Russian origin propaganda by the barrel-load. Nobody pushes that stuff harder than them. No one stands to gain from the chaos it creates in the west, more than them.

I think you mean “cis male” and holy fuck, brother, you need to get out of whatever nasty echo-chamber you’re in. I’m a cis male, I’m even tall, strong, white, and from a pretty well-off family, and yet I don’t feel the least bit alienated by them. Hell, I once had a firearms license and I drive a sportscar and motorcycles and shit, and I repair things with my own hands. And yet I feel perfectly fine and secure with the NDP platform and messaging. I’m privileged as hell, and I don’t mind losing some of my undeserved advantage so that those without such a headstart can have a better chance. The best part is that I still benefit from those policies, just not directly. When the floor is raised we all do better.
So I guess I’m just curious as to why you would think that they don’t want you.
