You really need to seek help from a professional on this. You’re not doomed to keep living this way. You aren’t spoiled milk.

Men tend to come into their own in their 30s. We start to hit our stride in our careers. We start to be more socially mature.

A woman’s sexual value is at its peak when they are young adults. It’s when they are the most fertile, and when they are most attractive to the average man. Men are attractive on a different set of metrics. Physical attractiveness matters, but maturity, financial success, and social acumen are something we are uniquely judged on. The latter three attributes we understandably are lacking in during early adulthood.

You’re in the prime of your life. Hit the gym, get some nice clothes, learn how to cook a few decent meals, and hit the dating scene. The only thing standing in your way is the trauma of past failure, and your fear of future mistakes.

Okay, sounds good. But then I don’t want to see you begging for food, shelter, healthcare, transportation, cell phones, internet, or anything else provided by people who work. If you don’t want to engage in this system of commerce, by all means, you do you. But if you aren’t trading your labor to buy goods from other people who are laboring, you don’t just get to have all your needs met for free.

Go live off the land, build your own shelter, grow/hunt your own food, and treat your own wounds. I wish you luck. I’d rather keep working and paying for a much better range of goods than you could ever scavenge or build on your own.

No, he just won’t sell anything to you unless you’re LGBT yourself or an extremely vocal ally. Then he’ll go destroy the other tills, because you’re not allowed to exist unless you are a part of his movement.

Actually, I’m bisexual, and just for writing this comment I’ll be drowned out by downvotes. Even being one of the letters doesn’t make you safe XD.

Sure, but how much cross-border support do activists on the left get? Hillary Clinton was just here speaking about left wing ideals of feminism, diversity, and inclusion. The dogma of the left, if you will.

This person hardly has an unbiased perspective. My personal belief is that people who use the term “far right” are suspect from the beginning. It’s not a real and definable group. It’s a dog whistle for left wing supporters that these people are “outsiders” who fall outside the liberal orthodoxy.

I fall center left on almost every issue. I am regularly called “far right” because I spend most of my time trying to explain and defend the mentalities of the right to the left. When you stop demonizing them and start talking to them, even someone like me can find a lot of common ground with the right. Common ground leads to compromise, and compromise leads to peaceful resolution.

The convoy is a perfect example of what happens when you pretend that we can ignore a large section of our citizens just because you don’t like what they believe. We tried to force vaccines on people by making employment conditional on them. Not a very liberal thing to do. We acted out of fear, and so did they. The convoy was about the fear of giving up bodily autonomy. How hard would it have been just to keep recommending them instead of forcing it on people? Do you think so many would have protested if we weren’t so heavy handed?

American influence, direct or indirect, is impossible to avoid in Canada. We are neighbors. Even the way I choose to type is American, otherwise I would have written “neighbours”. It’s inevitable. But that’s not an excuse to downplay the interests of either side. China’s interests are entirely different. The US government isn’t seeking to undermine us. China wants to destroy both the US and us. The Chinese are systematically trying to insert their citizens and paid operatives to erode Canada for their own gain, through economic means as well as by eroding national security.

The threat and nature of the two is entirely different. Comparing them is severely underestimating the intentions of China.

My problem with bubble zones is that they’re A) difficult to enforce, and B) protesting should be inconvenient. If we only allow protests in certain places, they’re extremely easy to ignore. This goes for any kind of protest on any issue.

In an ideal world, I don’t really want kids exposed to protests. But protests are only really effective when they take place where you don’t want them. If protests for trans rights only ever took place in a cordoned off area safely away from everyone, they wouldn’t be very effective either.

Parents should have a say what is being taught to their kids. LGBT values are an invasive culture change that is being pushed on kids without the interests of the parents in mind. This was equally true of the way Christianity was pushed on kids. I have always supported the secularization of schools. I don’t want the government teaching my kid what to believe. They should learn fact-based sciences and important life skills, values should be taught by the parents.

For the record, I’ve been an LGBT supporter all of my life. I’ve always preached acceptance of other people no matter their beliefs or circumstances. I’ve only recently had to start pushing back because I believe certain parts of the LGBT culture are not suitable for children. It does not make you evil or a bigot to seek compromise. We all have to live together in this nation, we need to find ways to make peace with each other.
