Yeah PPC has had issues with some BC runnings

2019-04-29 01:15:43 UTC  

it's cucked but not fucked (yet. We're headed there)

2019-04-29 01:15:48 UTC  

Oh yeah?

2019-04-29 01:16:04 UTC  

I know a handful of people who are guaranteed PPC votes but it's a matter of expanding from there

2019-04-29 01:16:18 UTC  

Yeah, some people are trying to inject PC culture into the party

2019-04-29 01:16:34 UTC  

BC being BC

2019-04-29 01:16:36 UTC  

lovely

2019-04-29 01:16:55 UTC  

On the other hand, I'm told the BC Libertarians are jumping on board

2019-04-29 01:17:00 UTC  

Younger people trying to go on a power trip

2019-04-29 01:17:12 UTC  

that's happening in the NDP as well actually

2019-04-29 01:17:27 UTC  

That being said I am younger but I also have the government experience

2019-04-29 01:17:35 UTC  

My uncle's an old school lefty in Quebec, and he was saying last time he visited that the new kids keep trying to inject socjus

2019-04-29 01:17:55 UTC  

while the old guard is super done with their shit, if they arent pandering for political survival

2019-04-29 01:19:27 UTC  

Going to be sending off an e-mail to Matt tomorrow, basically not enough politicians are using the great resource which is the internet properly

2019-04-29 01:19:50 UTC  

true

2019-04-29 01:20:09 UTC  

Too many ads target dying markets like facebook

2019-04-29 01:20:26 UTC  

I can't remember when I last used it

2019-04-29 01:20:29 UTC  

to be fair, that's still heavy normiesphere

2019-04-29 01:20:58 UTC  

but yeah if you want the disillusioned youth vote (which is what the PPC desperately needs) you wanna target online spaces in a different way

2019-04-29 01:21:05 UTC  

Mad Max was a good meme

2019-04-29 01:21:07 UTC  

Normiesphere is what community talks are for and door knocking

2019-04-29 01:21:32 UTC  

Mad Max talking to Dave Rubin was a very smart move

2019-04-29 01:21:35 UTC  

just hard to get Leafs to get hype about anything

2019-04-29 01:23:15 UTC  

It's why I know I will connect well. I joined because I am sick of clown world and I don't think I have the right to complain if I don't at least try and do something

2019-04-29 01:24:13 UTC  

At least if I lost I know I put my foot down and said no more

2019-04-29 01:25:00 UTC  

thats because you dont actually believe in absurdism my dude

2019-04-29 01:25:35 UTC  

either that or you're on the Kierkegaard end

2019-04-29 01:25:57 UTC  

I believe that people can and will be absurd if allowed to be

2019-04-29 01:26:14 UTC  

"People will only do what they are allowed to get away with"

2019-04-29 01:26:31 UTC  

Absurdism is what the clown world meme refers to, which is the notion that rather than being based on predictable systems, the fact of the matter is that reality is simply absurd

2019-04-29 01:27:06 UTC  

Kierkegaard figured the solution was, to my knowledge, religious hierarchy. What people are latching onto is the Camus view, which is that you have to embrace the absurd

2019-04-29 01:27:43 UTC  

Well the world is predictable in that people will do dumb things if allowed to do so by society

2019-04-29 01:27:46 UTC  

the idea being that the attempt to apply meaning or systems to absurdity puts you atn odds with reality. The issue with this is that rolling with the absurdity is arguably what got us into this mess

2019-04-29 01:28:39 UTC  

sure, and Id say people do dumb things in predictable ways

2019-04-29 01:28:44 UTC  

Which means reality isn't absurd as much as the corrective action(s) have not been taken

2019-04-29 01:28:51 UTC  

that's actually a sizeable chunk of psychological research

2019-04-29 01:29:13 UTC  

¿Why is vc quiet?

2019-04-29 01:29:32 UTC  

Call in show is wednesday.

2019-04-29 01:29:32 UTC  

Well it is pretty late

2019-04-29 01:29:39 UTC  

Also that

2019-04-29 01:29:44 UTC  

Or do you guys usually talk regardless?
