Bruce Pardy, Law Prof @ Queens U has spoken about the fact that the Courts have adopted a pozzed "living tree doctrine" interpretation from Day 1 from its enactment in the 80s.

He reviewed at some point one of the first cases to use the Charter: female retired cops complained they didn't get full RCMP pensions like the men did because the vast majority of the women only worked part time. The Courts awarded them full benefit payouts because: Women.

It was essentially the US Women's Soccer Team case about 35 years early.

It's similar, but more so "mootness"

Trudeau's handpicked judges ruled that they don’t have to actually adjudicate the legality and constitutionality of past laws to "save resources" if the law at present is temporarily suspended.

To recap:

  • Aug '21 - Trudeau calls a snap election, campaigns on an air travel ban for purebloods because "they have no right to endanger your children".
  • Sept '21 - Trudeau wins a minority government against Conservative Erin "Trudeau but in Blue" O'Toole, effectively unchanged from prewrit
  • Oct '21 - enacts domestic air/train/ferry ban for 4-5 million Canadian purebloods, effectively preventing escape as Biden has the land border closed & international air travel is now banned
  • Feb '22 - trucker convoy
  • June '22 - Trudeau unexpectedly lifts air travel ban, Biden's land border remains closed
  • Fall '22 - former Premier of Newfoundland Brian Peckford and People's Party of Canada leader Maxime Bernier have their Charter Challenge in Federal Court dismissed on the basis of "mootness" as Court says it doesn't want to use resources to adjudicate the legality of Trudeau denying 5 million Canadians mobility rights for a year now that it's been lifted
  • Aug '24 - Supreme Court declines to hear the case - Chief Justice of the SCC has publicly criticized the trucker convoy movement,

TL;DR - Canadian government can pass any executive order unconstitutional law unchallenged as long as it's rescinded by the time it grinds its way to court.

Sir Keir Starmer has said delivering on the government's promises is the best way to deal with "the snake oil of populism and nationalism".

Imagine a PM talking about populism & nationalism like dirty words.

I also noticed the BBC kept pretending Southport was disinformation, but completely omitted that the attacker was of Rwandan heritage.

Childhood vaccination was the guise that the CIA in Zero Dark Thirty used to infiltrate Bin Laden's compound.

Of course, that movie was also one giant Jessica Chastain girl boss make believe power fantasy, so who knows.

Thought provoking that AWFLs always project that their opponents want to set up a Handmaid's Tale dystopia but never actually acknowledge the IRL Tuscan Raider version that already exists.

The Mass Deportation sloganeering is similar to the 2016 " Lock Her Up" with Hillary.

Many right wingers criticizing Trump & co. want him to be the based tyrant the left pretends he is, not simply a politician who lies to both his base & the normies.

The Beauty Parlor/Man-Hate stuff does spill over to the A&H news section as well, which lean more right wing.

There are a couple of posters that constantly spam low-effort gender war articles that inevitably result in "Incel v. thots/cat ladies" sperging.

But it's true they are easily avoided by just skimming the titles and ignoring them.

Even if that's the case, why nuke a thread simply because you personally as its admin have grown passed it?

He blamed it on "gay ops causing trouble" that was debunked, but he doubled down, chimped out and banned everyone anyway.

The Mass Deportation memes are pure cope.

If Trump & Vance actually believed any of that shit, they'd outline a detailed plan and stop blabbering about how much they love LEGAL immigration.

I think it's more of an example that the American right isn't very good at placating internal dissent when push comes to shove and instead quells it through mob rule just like the left.

Though right wingers presently like wrapping themselves in the identity of being free expressionists and critical thinkers.

Maybe it's a problem with long form.

I think his style works better on the podium at rallies where he can ad lib, be coarse and humorous.

I wasn't put off by his long form interviews. But was left lacking and found him boring and generic.

No, the feminine style of argument is "If you don't do X like I want you to, then puppies will die. Do you want that?"

Tons of indoctrination in schools and troon shit took place between 2016-2020 when Trump was in power.

He's obviously the better choice of the two on the topic.

But his internal critics want to believe in a champion that is principled & hardcore. They are getting a politician that seems tired, centrist & sounding a lot like the rest of the swamp.

Disillusioned right wingers don't have many tools when they are disgusted by the move to the center. Their go to is to take back some personal autonomy by wanting to be wooed for their vote instead of being taken for granted or staying home altogether because no one is entitled to their support.

Those are feminine type appeals to emotion.

Our enemies are evil incarnate. To that we can all agree.

Really this simply boils down to longhouse type stuff.

People to the right of Trump on some issues are being shouted down simply because it's become a binary "You are either with us or against us" in pursuit of victory no matter what Trump’s campaign does and without evidence that softening his message actually achieves the ultimate goal.

Well, maybe the TDS types have a point then that we are simply a cult of personality.

I admittedly don't follow DSP lore.

But Josh's impetuous response to the situation came off like a labile woman.

The problem is that EVERY election is always framed as some existential threat where one has to betray their principles THIS time to keep evil at bay.

I actually don't give a shit about nationwide abortion bans.

But I want a version of Trump who doesn't kowtow to journoscum hypothetical gotchas because he thinks it's the answer that polls better rather than being the right thing to do or what his base wants.

I think the issue for critics of Trump like Nick Fuentes & Lauren Chen is that you have to believe that he & Vance are simply politicking for votes "campaigning from the center, governing from the right" instead of being weak RINOs like so many others when they finally win.

And I do share some of their concerns. 2024 Trump isn't as based as 2016 Trump.

I watched Trump's Theo Von podcast interview last week. I thought he came off as looking hoarse, old and enfeebled. Similar to the Elon conversation, Trump said barely anything of substance. They rambled for an hour about alcoholism, Dana White, Kid Rock & Trump's older brother Fred.

Theo Von had interviewed Bernie Sanders the week before. I only made it through the first 10 minutes, but Sanders was more impressive. He made a compelling case for universal healthcare even if it was based on lies. The comments were also full to the brim of simps putting the champagne socialist Bernie on a pedestal as a "Man of the People".

I want a Trump that has lines in the sand on red meat issues. Who isn't worried about MSM gotchas or speaking unpopular truths.

The Canadian truckers movement & adjacent Freedom ones essentially went back to exclusively complaining online and getting into purity spiral slapfights internally with each other.

There's been a huge rise in anti-Indian mass immigration sentiment in Canada over the last two years, but no corresponding boot-on-the-ground protesting or organization.

The Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre who is going to replace Trudeau in a year is a Mitch McConnell/Lindsey Graham level cuck. He refuses to even address mass immigration beyond "Build More Houses" and posts campaign photos daily of him pandering to pajeets. While publicly denouncing any grassroots nationalist movement leaders.

A KF splinter site that I lurked for awhile.

It seems to be run by weirdos and many of its users are KF banned refugees.

I mostly read their sections on KF lore and internecine drama.

They really hate Null. They have also doxxed some of the KF mods.

The parts I read seemed more left-leaning than KF, probably representing more old fag KF users who got turfed as the site started leaning more right.

I thought this OP might be more related to Null's catty and impulse bans and moderation at times. Specifically as it pertained to the Dark Syde Phil subforum.

Null locked it, temporarily nuked it and fired all its mods earlier in the year simply because he personally "didn't find DSP funny anymore". He also justified his actions by continuing to repeat like a leftist a debunked claim that a DSP subforum user had put the site in jeopardy by fucking with DSP's ISP then bragging about it,

Then when the mods understandbly protested, he banned one of them for setting up/being involved in a lifeboat DSP site for "insubordination" and "stealing revenue streams from KF".

Josh went on to moderate the DSP forum personally thereafter.

I don't even care about DSP, but the whole incident turned me off.

KF is always in danger internally because it's at the whim of emotional, petulant admin decisions from a maladjusted defiant sperg.

Benevolentdictator 12 points ago +12 / -0

I've certainly read very similar critiques of Null having two-tier moderation for TERFs on KF very often, so it's not simply OP's own impressions.

I tend to avoid those big male-female slapfight threads though personally.
