Pierre Poilievre is a dangerous man that shouldn’t be allowed to have the opportunity to lead our country.

    I want to like this person’s reporting, but I just can’t get over the urge to reach through the screen and push her out of the way so I can actually see what the fuck she’s talking about.

    Seriously, I get that there’s tons of pressure to standout in visual platforms by highlighting yourself in your work, but I’d still like her content even if her face wasn’t constantly in it.

      Building off this a bit, I think the reason why it bothers me so much isn’t just because it’s distracting, it also has this unintended toxic effect of tying the value of what someone’s saying directly to their appearance. It’s exhausting watching new generations of people re-equate truth and beauty again and again in ever more insidious and pervasive ways with new technology.

      I get what you’re saying, but it’s where and how people are and consuming misinformation.

      Matching that style may be the only way to get some truth through.

      Yeah her videos set off major alarm bells in my mind just because of the association of the type of content with this format being used to manipulate people. Even though when I’ve watched them it has been pretty sensible.

        She’s manipulating people, you just agree with her. Look at her unhinged crap about /r/canada being Russian. You go look at that subreddit and it’s perfectly normal content, just not through and through diehard support for the federal Liberals, pretty fucking far cry from white nationalists in hoods as certain types would imply.

      I can’t stand this form of content, or the delivery, but it’s where audiences are so I’m willing to accept that I’m just old and lame.

    Petterson is the ultimate regime whore… Your life sucks because you didn’t make your bed, Brayden. If only you were smart and worked harder, maybe your life wouldn’t suck.

    I known doctors and lawyers working 100 hour weeks, and they love it. Trust me bro, you ain’t got it. So get back to your shiti job, make your bed.

      Aw man sorry about that. It’s on Instagram. Normally you should be able to view it without logging in?

    So, taking the total GDP/business investment of one country and dividing it by the number of workers of said country is bad, but taking the total income of men/women and dividing it by the total hours worked for men/women is good to prove the gender pay gap. Sure.

    P.S they are both shitty comparisons.

        Her argument is basically (from what I understand), that the way Pierre Poilievre is calculating stuff to prove his point is too simplistic and wrong.

        I think she is right - the calculation is unadjusted for discrepancies in the data. To adjust, much more has to be considered e.g where people work and live (you might earn more in a big city, but have higher living costs), how many or what percentage of people live where (more people living in cities naturally means a higher GDP), how long people work (time can be included the calculation service values), inflation (higher inflation in one country can lead to a reduce in purchasing power and reduction of the value of the currency), how the GDP is calculated (GDP calculated by one institute can include/exclude data compared to calculations by other institutes and the formulas can be different) and so on. However, and I admit this is a tangent, when the gender pay gap is brought up, most often the unadjusted value is brought up and treated as proof of injustice, when it shouldn’t.

        In the United States, for example, the non-adjusted average woman’s annual salary is 79–83% of the average man’s salary, compared to 95–99% for the adjusted average salary.

          Regardless of that argument, the fact that he went on Jordan Peterson’s podcast is telling of his values and morals. He appears to share many of Peterson’s views, which is terrifying considering he could become the next PM if elections were held right now.

          We all have to work and tell everybody around us how bad Poilievre is for our country. And not just because of this case, but for all his other arguments, which are complete disinformation and lies.

            Yeah Peterson lost the plot a while ago. Poilievre agreeing with his insane stances is dangerous for a possible future PM.
