@Little Boots I wouldn't say that they should be used as a base, but I would recommend looking at birds as they can continually repair hearing damage throughout their lives. At least some of them can.

Who'd you vote for?

Of course, the only reasonable option.

Fair enough. Let's keep our fingers crossed for the best.

@Deleted User You Ontarian?

Just please tell me you're not supporting Wynne.

I'm in Ford Nation myself down in Toronto. I honestly feel bad for everyone outside of Toronto because we make you look like shit by affiliation.

Not a claim of superiority, I mean we're a sinkhole and ruin the scenery.

No, I understand completely.

I hate Toronto too, even if it is my dearest home.

Though, I will say as an aside, every single mosque here has a sign out for NDP.

Every. Single. One.

Sounds beautiful.

I have a bunch of Pajeets for about the next... five kilometers.

And condominiums.

I'll have you know it identifies as a saltless sea.

I'm jealous enough already, you can stop taunting me now with your superior lakes.

I start sweating at ten degrees, I'll probably be more comfortable up there.

Would be nice, always considered moving out there. Had family out there a while back, moved to Toronto before... well, Toronto became modern Toronto.

What's the fine even for? Using too much water? Not shitting in the street?

I don't even know what California is using the water on, exactly, from all the news I keep hearing about it they certainly aren't using it for sanitation.

...that's probably it.

If it's this serious that a limit needs to be put in place, why wait seven years to enact it?

I woudl say that exterminatus is a bit too far, but no kind of policy is ever going to save the state at this point.

Just the big cities. It's actually a beautiful state if you take away the cesspits of San Diego, San Francisco, and the like.

Honest answer is no. Natural for them.

In a roundabout way, they might be right. Insofar as getting rid of things that people like and calling them misogynists seems to create the problem as opposed to getting rid of it.

Depends, what part of it do you want to know?

Unfortunately, something like this is only going to encourage leftists in Canada to vote NDP more.

We're discussing Canadian leftists.

I remember - this was years ago, I'd have to try to look it up and see if it has changed - but roughly 1/3 Canadians did not consider a mortgage to be debt.

Everything that I can find at the moment is effectively "despite household debt growing rapidly Canadians are still paying their mortgages". I'm not sure if that's a good or bad thing.

I would like to apologise for any other Canadians who ever visit here for my hometown - and Vancouver - almost toppling the economy every other year with a housing bubble.

Because I'm honestly astounded it hasn't tanked the province yet.

It's unlikely to go red, I would bet that the blues will be so discontent and divided that reds might manage to pull ahead.

Though it would be better than nothing, certainly.

Getting any republican to move forward is a step in the right direction, though. Fact of the matter is, California almost is always pure blue.

It's basically impossible but I'm going to die of laughter if Little somehow wins this.

California('s government and the general degeneracy of American culture) is terrible.

I do love the state, I just... can't stand a good chunk of the people.

@Rievous Yep. Definitely.

My immediate family is conservative, everyone else is progressive and votes for the Green environmentalist party.

_Funnily enough the rest of them live in upper class communities and retired early after making massive amounts of money working at banks._

But Rievous... _did you refuse to acknowledge your white privilege?_

Rommel actually disagreed heavily with the party platform.

You could've picked almost anyone else.

"Executed" by mandatory suicide, but yes.

In Rommel's defence most of those plots emerged after Germany got stuck in a war with half of the planet.

Not getting into an argument of adherence to authority that you don't agree with and so on and so forth, but the point remains.

Can't speak from experience, but my friend - who is Vietnamese and routinely visits again - says it's heavily infected still. Good chunk of South East Asia is, really.

Not _you_, specifically, just saying that Rommel's betrayal - in implication, I don't think we're so knowledgeable of his exact role - is fairly understandable if the objective was to replace the government to force a peace deal. I was only saying I wished to skip past any kind of argument over one obeying an authority that one did not believe in or thought was wrong and if that is justified or not.

In any case, if you're going to start posting "proper" Nazis, I'd recommend Speer or Funk. Not the most... well known of the party, but they're not as... _unique_ looking as the more commonly sighted.

And not really implicated in occultism or the SS and stuff.

...yeah I think that's just going to scare people.

If you really want to advocate the ideas of national socialism, you might want to pick people not like Himmler.

At all.

...I don't think anyone did, really.

Out of curiosity, does anyone here know what East Germany called the Berlin Wall?

...debatably.

_Antifaschistischer Schutzwall_. (had to look it up again because I can't spell anything German)

The USSR and the DDR called the Berlin Wall the anti-fascist wall.

Because for them all capitalists were fascists in denial.

This is why these people who sympathise with communists see nazis everywhere.

I'm not going to address all the other implications in this, but I'll only point out that giving someone a lot of money to leave their home and go to another country that they've never lived in is not the most agreeable offer.

I'd say it's a _little more_ than presumptuous to phrase it like that.

_highly debatable_

(inb4 we get screeches that Catholics aren't Christian in the first place)

...not by... _necessity_. It depends on how you define Christian, and if you define it in such a way that it precludes Catholicism then Catholics can't be Christian. Same thing goes for Jehovah's witnesses or Mormons, some people say yes or no. Not really a proper comparison with how many Catholics there are but I digress.

Ah well.

I always preferred the one of Pepe sitting in front of a concentration camp saying "I just wanted to play video games".

Hits closer home than sports.

_Some_ people.

I don't think anyone here is saying Catholics _aren't_, I'm just playing devil's advocate and saying it's not the oddest reclassification I've seen.

I _swear_ Russia banned Scientology a year or two back.

Alright, it may be a lot more complicated than I thought, but it seemed that Russia just loves cracking down on them whenever it can.

Them and Jehovah's Witnesses, too.

Alright, you have a good night too. Promise us you won't start dreaming of ethnic cleansings.

_technically a cleansing_

But it's better than I thought, at least.

Little is a severe understatement.

If I recall, _though I'm used to being wrong,_ doesn't it usually go down between two different Dems though?

If we can get a Republican - even if he doesn't win - isn't that more than normal?

...I want to ask but a part of me tells me that I shouldn't for the "how" you'd do this.

...riiight, should've seen that one coming.

Although I'd never want to read it, the... **_Guardian_**... usually has decent reports for numbers as they come in.

That's... reasonable.

Tell you what, Casimir, I'll talk with you authoritarianism all you like in the future. You're the nicest nazi I've met.

For the record, coups are usually terrible with installing fascism. Look at Spain, the falangists fizzled out fairly quickly.

If there's one thing that I know about the Anglosphere, that's from Alaska to Australia, it's that people don't like voting someone in as much as they like voting someone out. I think the Dems are going to find this effect coming in rather quickly.

Not even kidding, they had 100'000 Muslims fighting for the Nationalists in a declared Jihad against Communism.

It's amazing.

That's usually a monarchist position, but I'll take it.

Get some sleep, we'll argue back and forth about what kind of socialism national socialism is later.

The question is, however, how much can it be stacked in the time that it would take.

Hey, Strasserists weren't _communists_.

They were...

...

_okay they were proto-communists_

They didn't believe in the abolishment of private property though.

So strasserists aren't commies.
