Fair enough, I'm just defensive about the vestigial parts of civil society that are still non-fascist. While I agree that the whole planet has deeply flawed things going on, I think this far right stuff that is currently happening is something new. And I disagree with the whole "both sides" kinda narrative.

I'm unfamiliar with Australia and NZ, but fully agree that historically Canada has engaged in a massive genocide. But in the context of the thread about American interment camps I think it's a bit disingenuous. While far from perfect, Canada has done a lot in the truth and reconciliation department.

Most of the mistreatment these days stems from resource development projects infringing on unceded territories.

I live in an indigenous community, and have lived in many others throughout my life. I have noticed a massive improvement in my elder millennial life.

While I think some systemic racism still exists towards indigenous folks, I can't think of anywhere I've been with more racial awareness. I certainly noticed much more racist behavior while traveling in Europe recently.

Have you been to Canada?

I've definitely seen more than one grizzly in that finger of green in South Central BC.....

Well, as they say: "a single cunt hair'll pull a battleship across the desert." Pardon my vulgarity

Although, if you're a ball haver, this is a great way to get poo water splash on your balls...

Fuck, I read some reviews from that page. What a depressing situation. I'm sure many are bots, but still.

Wow. Same here. Haven't logged on since then either. Although I do browse r/printsf in my laptop still... Fediverse is the shit

Clearly from a country without socialized healthcare...

The first half of this was great. Then you descended into tomfoolery.

Ok, fair enough. I see it as a way for me to spread a good message into the world, not as me buying you something...

 

Just finished this. I'm not a review writer, but it's a solid hardish SciFi, bit cyber punk. Looking forward to the sequel.
