Leaf nation 🍁 bans doublespeak

leafs sneeding over US politics

Tale old as time

Jesus Christ. Both parties are filled with fricking r-slurs.

I love the part about our new culture where just any old person will make obscure hipster references to stuff that happened yesterday. I feel like I really fit in these days, despite my crippling autism

Wow that is r-slurred even for burgers

Peak comedy

Imagine how cool Toronto would be if we kept all of the immigrants but replaced the leafs with burgers.

China will invade Alaska, America will annex Canada, and the European Commonwealth would dissolve into quarreling, bickering nation-states, bent on controlling the last remaining resources on Earth.

Yeah but this particular edict is stupid because people who want to express that concept will still do it, only the language that they use will change. Instead of "Let's Go Brandon" it'll morph to "Fine Bro Mining" - which of course will be the new slang description of a s*x act in the gay community, so when Trudeau tries to ban that as well he'll be accused of homophobia. Trying to stop people from expressing an idea by criminalizing the language never works because language shifts constantly. I mean, just look at how effectively rdrama communicates using emojis. What are they going to do when instead of saying "Let's Go Brandon," somebody comes up with a cheering Marsey wearing a Brandon T-shirt? Criminalize any emoji of a cartoon cat and say that Marsey is a "hate symbol"? I mean, sure, they could try, but that approach really didn't work out so hot for Hillary. Persecuting a cartoon frog made her look ridiculous and insanely out of touch.

I think the reason the left is so stupid about language is because they're still fighting using tactics that worked 10 years ago but are now outdated. They are well aware that you can cloak intent behind language - that's why the people who are pushing CRT keep trying to rename it to something else now like "Diversity Equity Inclusion" or "Teaching Real History" now that there's such a colossal backlash against it. These sort of semantic bait-and-switch games used to work when the right was stupid, but now conservatives are fully aware of language manipulation and are using it themselves to beat the shit out of progressives. At the end of the day, censorship doesn't work and only creates backlash against the people doing the censorship. That's something important I learned from my time in Anonymous, and I eventually went on to weaponize that concept very effectively, so I'm not just making shit up here - I've done large scale social experiments and tested this theory robustly.

Longpostbot, what are your thoughts on this?

Canadia, it borders Arcadia, get with the times colonizer

Canadians are some of the ugliest people I've ever beheld. America has a large volume of genetic diversity - thanks to our superior climate and superior cultural diversity (Sorry - I know Canada really prides themselves on their "diversity" but your immigration department also doesn't want most people, even brown ones, unless they have around $100,000 (AMERICAN DOLLARS) to invest). Canadians were largely descended from the same group of 800 or so women that King Louis sent over to colonize your shithole country. That's why you all look the same. The only reason you are less fat than us is because you are all hooked on meth and crack. I don't make the rules either.
