It violates the human right to freedom of speech, even when it's wrong, a lie, and a terrible thing. [00:41] DaemonFC Denying a Nazi War Crime is not a crime in most of the world, because making it a crime would be an infringement on human rights. [00:42] DaemonFC Cheering for a government that criminalizes speech basically makes that person no better than a Nazi, honestly. [00:43] DaemonFC Because, authoritarian repressive regimes can't stand freedom of speech, and they always go for that one first, but it will not be the last. [00:43] *macrohumanity (~macrohumanity@dcs84rsrw6b3n.irc) has joined #techrights [00:44] DaemonFC It's like a country next door that criminizes peaceful assembly and even freezes people's finances for engaging in a protest that would be protected by the First Amendment in the United States. [00:44] DaemonFC It's a very polite Nazi government up there. [00:45] DaemonFC As far as I know, they've never apologized for slaughtering the indiginous people, nor have they stopped harassing them and economically brutalizing what's left of them. [00:45] DaemonFC They still give them bad schools and unsafe drinking water, among other things. [00:49] DaemonFC Pretty much the whole of human history has been "These people have rights and stuff. We want them to not have rights and we want to take their stuff. Let's take away their rights, kill them, and take their stuff." [00:49] DaemonFC The Nazis just did it with German efficiency. [00:49] DaemonFC That's the only difference between Nazi Germany and Canada.

[00:51] DaemonFC Had they been allowed to continue, they would have been out of people that were on the lists they had to murder in perhaps 10 or 15 years. [00:52] DaemonFC Canada just does the same thing piecemeal. [00:52] DaemonFC They slaughtered the natives and took their land, but they don't acknowledge their crimes and they act horrified that basically the same thing happened here. [00:53] DaemonFC They suppress their own citizens, so they can't really be said to be a free country, not even as free as the United States is. [00:53] DaemonFC If I show up to protest the Governor, things don't necessarily "just start happening" because I was out there picketing. [00:54] DaemonFC In Canada, they don't tolerate assembly, speech, or expression. They never did and it's only gotten worse. [00:54] DaemonFC And to make sure that nobody can threaten them during their acceleration, they took away the gun rights too. [00:54] DaemonFC Tolerating speech that everyone else agrees with and is not controversial is not "free speech". [00:54] DaemonFC So Canada is not a free country. [00:55] *includeals has quit (Quit: ZNC - https://znc.in) [00:55] DaemonFC They're a fascist country. [00:55] DaemonFC What makes them worse is that they don't even admit to their own fascism. [00:55] DaemonFC They try to hide it. [00:55] *includeals (~includeal@bl21-236-167.dsl.telepac.pt) has joined #techrights [00:56] DaemonFC They claim that they care about the "right to asylum" yet they don't take in many people who apply for it.

[05:15] DaemonFC > Last year, some 15 million consumers or 6.5% of the US population reported using BNPL installment loans to pay for groceries or manage their weekly food expenses, according to research from PYMNTS Intelligence. Out of that share, about 5.4% of the households using BNPL to afford groceries were low-income. [05:15] DaemonFC > Meaning there was still a slim share of higher-earners, those making over $100,000 annually, using the popular "pay-in-four" installment loans to purchase food each month.

Liqui Moly has that oil sludge remover stuff. You drive for 128 miles with that stuff in the oil and then do a normal oil change. [05:18] DaemonFC I asked the company what the difference was between that and the pro line engine flush. They said that the oil sludge remover was a gentler formula that you can drive around with for a little while and then just do an oil change. [05:18] DaemonFC I just pay the Car-X for a standard oil change and they're happy to use whatever supplies I give them. [05:19] DaemonFC I don't see much of a reason to go in there and have them use the bulk shop synthetic and charge me $70. [05:19] DaemonFC Their standard oil change is $21 plus the cost of whatever I bring in, which I got 15% off at Walmart of course. [05:20] DaemonFC So, maybe like $30 for five quarts synthetic and a nice filter. You save about $20 each time you go in there that way. [05:21] schestowitz schestowitz: Eat now, pay later!
