White people mad

I seen videos of white boys going around harrassing Indian people (First Nations and red dot)
Anybody and everyone can get clowned but I'm not standing side by side with some cracker while he's saying the most looking like a beatdown house wife in an abusive relationship.


That happened to one of my boys still, we linked up for some drinks and he introduced me to his white boy who moved out west because Ontario was too liberal or something like that because he got doxed for "speaking his mind". He's saying the most about natives and how these new immigrants are bad and don't have Canadian values. Even said my boy was one of the good lads who can take a joke and some more bullshyt about how he doesn't see skin colour.

Something something skeletons something something closet

This is complete horseshyt. Winston Marshall is a lying, far-right piece of shyt. People aren't being jailed simply for posting memes.

Mumford & Sons’ Banjoist Traded Rock Stardom for the Allure of Owning the Libs

Even the hugely successful banjoist can’t resist the chaos of anti-leftist blogging.

slate.com

Winston Marshall risked it all last week. The man is probably the single most successful banjo player in history; he joined Mumford & Sons in 2007 as a 20-year-old, self-proclaimed trustafarian, just as the world was subsumed by a beguiling stadium-folk mania, and together, the British foursome made gobs of money by superimposing a Creed-ish veneer onto classic dust-bowl blues. (Their first record, Sigh No More, sold 3.2 million copies, nearly unprecedented for a debut.)

But Marshall, now 33 and no worse for wear, threw all of that away. On Thursday, he announced that he was quitting the band for good, abandoning Mumford with his two remaining sons. Marshall is not leaving because of creative differences, touring exhaustion, or any of the other classic vectors that pull a lucrative artistic collaboration apart. No, this banjoist wants to tweet, and he believes that his band was inhibiting that desire.

But Marshall, now 33 and no worse for wear, threw all of that away. On Thursday, he announced that he was quitting the band for good, abandoning Mumford with his two remaining sons. Marshall is not leaving because of creative differences, touring exhaustion, or any of the other classic vectors that pull a lucrative artistic collaboration apart. No, this banjoist wants to tweet, and he believes that his band was inhibiting that desire.
Take it from Marshall himself, on the Medium blog that explains his decision. “I hope in distancing myself from them I am able to speak my mind without them suffering the consequences. I leave with love in my heart and I wish those three boys nothing but the best,” he writes. “I have no doubt that their stars will shine long into the future. … I look forward to new creative projects as well as speaking and writing on a variety of issues, challenging as they may be.”

Some context: Marshall found himself in hot water in March when he tweeted in solidarity with Andy Ngo, a conservative journalist who has dedicated his career to the sensationalization of fringe antifa groups. Ngo is single-handedly responsible for convincing prime-time Fox News viewers across America that they are being hunted by a cabalistic, existentially threatening network of communist agitators. “You’re a brave man,” tweeted Marshall, above an image of Ngo’s book titled Unmasked: Inside Antifa’s Radical Plan to Destroy Democracy. (The front cover also includes a quote from Tucker Carlson.) Mumford fans the world over were understandably upset that their favorite banjo player would publicly endorse such a flagrant right-wing charlatan, and Marshall issued an apology a few days later.

But close observers know that the start of Marshall’s radicalization goes back much further. After all, in August 2018, Marshall invited Jordan Peterson—a Canadian psychologist who has found a windfall of fame by expressing some questionable beliefs about the sanctity of masculinity—to the band’s recording studio. That incident caused a similar backlash when Peterson uploaded a photo of him and the group to his Instagram account, and Marshall immediately went on the defensive.

Come man

Look at these accounts. "Based Anglo"? Get the fukk out of here posting this shyt.

This garbage has been debunked.

Is that’s a long shot

that would work though.

"the critical global AI race (against China et-al)" relies on the success, high share-prices, deep pockets, intellectual critical mass, self-sufficiency and dominant position of the tech titans.

it may not look like it, but the masses are the ones given them their power. willingly.

hobble them and governments will start to worry.

send your eyes and your dollars to asian and chinese equivalents and they will start to panic. or even to ban.

if everyone stopped using google search tomorrow its share price would collapse.

We are fortunate to live in a country that allows us to curse our leaders and call each other derogatory names.

So ya Trump is evil
But isn’t it weird that this is happening to all western white majority countries all at once?
U.S, UK and now Canada…

It's not weird it by design. This is them course correcting for the future problems ahead. Covid Vaccines George Floyd BLM Palestine Israel Russia Ukraine Immigration Charlie Kirk now Digital ID's etc etc follow the trail and see the pattern. All the while the people are still having a contest about whose left and whose right when all it is is a distraction. When it's really the Rich vs Poor the 1-5% of the world vs everyone else.
