qu1j0t3 | "LOOK AT THE ENEMY! HANG THEM!" | May 01 02:15 |
qu1j0t3 | "THEY LOOK GUILTY!" | May 01 02:15 |
qu1j0t3 | how is it that newspapers can print mugshots like that before a trial? | May 01 02:16 |
eikonos | yeah, i've seen some "comment threads" | May 01 02:16 |
qu1j0t3 | that is new | May 01 02:16 |
qu1j0t3 | there was a time not so long ago when newspapers not only wouldn't, but couldn't do that. | May 01 02:16 |
qu1j0t3 | all forgotten now | May 01 02:16 |
eikonos | mm… i think mugshots is an old practice | May 01 02:16 |
qu1j0t3 | nope | May 01 02:16 |
qu1j0t3 | it's not | May 01 02:16 |
qu1j0t3 | if convicted, sure | May 01 02:16 |

qu1j0t3 | 80s is recent sonny | May 01 02:17 |
eikonos | inorite? ;) | May 01 02:17 |
qu1j0t3 | i am quite serious, newspapers didn't print arrest mugshots. | May 01 02:17 |
qu1j0t3 | it's become normal | May 01 02:17 |
qu1j0t3 | there used to be laws against this too, i think | May 01 02:17 |
qu1j0t3 | for all the obvious reasons | May 01 02:17 |
qu1j0t3 | there is no public interest in printing arrest mugshots. | May 01 02:17 |
qu1j0t3 | i don't care if it's a random muslim or conrad black | May 01 02:18 |

qu1j0t3 | eikonos: 80s is the tabloid era ushered in by Murdoch | May 01 02:19 |
qu1j0t3 | eikonos: the tabloids go apeshit for trial-by-media | May 01 02:19 |
qu1j0t3 | eikonos: which is why it drives me nuts when the Star does it ;( | May 01 02:20 |
qu1j0t3 | I stopped reading my hometown paper for this reason | May 01 02:20 |
qu1j0t3 | i took screenshots and measured up the tabloid crap by area | May 01 02:20 |
qu1j0t3 | it's a worthwhile exercise for any newspaper | May 01 02:20 |
eikonos | it's almost as if the current system isn't working | May 01 02:21 |
eikonos | someone once said that to me | May 01 02:21 |
qu1j0t3 | ikr | May 01 02:21 |
qu1j0t3 | it's almost as if somebody should take a time machine and drown a Murdoch baby | May 01 02:21 |

qu1j0t3 | ah | May 01 05:22 |
qu1j0t3 | i'm watching it now | May 01 05:22 |
formic_ | Problems in your time travel theory there qu1j0t3 | May 01 05:25 |
formic_ | In the many worlds interpretation you would simply just branch off a universe where Murdoch drowned as a baby | May 01 05:27 |
formic_ | We would still have to put up with him, you would be in some other universe where hes dead | May 01 05:27 |
formic_ | Assuming that is false | May 01 05:28 |
formic_ | Someone just as powerful as Murdoch would be an alternate evil doing the same shit | May 01 05:28 |
formic_ | His place would be taken by someone else | May 01 05:29 |

ender2070 | touche | May 01 16:36 |
ender2070 | a nutcase can detect another nutcase better than a non-nutcase | May 01 16:36 |
eikonos | i've not heard elizabeth may called a nutcase before | May 01 17:14 |
eikonos | and i could walk to her riding from here | May 01 17:15 |
qu1j0t3 | yes, she's a nutcase, and Stephen Harper, for example, is quite sane | May 01 17:15 |
qu1j0t3 | i am sure the men in white coats just went to the wrong address, in her case, and she's free to roam Parliament, foaming at the mouth | May 01 17:16 |
qu1j0t3 | simple mistake, a bureaucratic blunder; but look at the danger to society | May 01 17:17 |

eikonos | often, politics devolves into discussions of appearance and personality, and race and sex, and so on | May 01 18:14 |
eikonos | which annoys me to no end | May 01 18:14 |
eikonos | case in point, the recent ads portraying justin trudeau is "less than manly" | May 01 18:14 |
eikonos | i'm not even a big fan of justin | May 01 18:15 |
eikonos | but these criticisms have nothing whatsoever to do with whether he would make good decisions or not | May 01 18:15 |
eikonos | we don't choose a doctor to treat a serious illness based on whether they have good hair | May 01 18:16 |
*Andromm has quit (Ping timeout: 264 seconds) | May 01 18:17 | |
eikonos | for me, politics should be only about making decisions to ensure economic and social stability for the citizens of a country | May 01 18:17 |
qu1j0t3 | sorry, it's currently not about that : | May 01 18:26 |

ender2070 | <eikonos> case in point, the recent ads portraying justin trudeau is "less than manly" | May 01 19:22 |
ender2070 | yeah, I think the fact hes a communist stands on its own | May 01 19:22 |
eikonos | aren't you more worried that he wants to build a secret liberal base on the moon? | May 01 19:29 |
eikonos | also, he might be secretly muslim | May 01 19:29 |
eikonos | radicalized, even | May 01 19:29 |
ender2070 | communists are athiests | May 01 20:44 |
eikonos | all of them? | May 01 20:44 |
eikonos | the venn diagram would be two overlapping circles? | May 01 20:44 |

eikonos | Those who can, do. Those who cannot, make a gantt chart about it. | May 01 20:46 |
MinceR | wait, what have communists have to do with liberals? | May 01 20:49 |
qu1j0t3 | MinceR: same thing! | May 01 20:51 |
qu1j0t3 | MinceR: the liberal party has an agenda to convert canada to islam too | May 01 20:52 |
MinceR | sounds like hungary | May 01 20:52 |
MinceR | (where people have apparently no idea what "liberalism" is) | May 01 20:52 |
eikonos | i suspect such labels mean nothing. particularly since everyone seems to be thinking of something different when they use the labels | May 01 20:54 |
eikonos | the primary purpose seems to be to label a vague conceptual group of policies, then to discredit the label, in the hopes of discrediting policies which might be contained within | May 01 20:55 |
ender2070 | Trudeau is part of the new world order party | May 01 21:02 |
eikonos | so he doesn't belong to the old world order party? | May 01 21:04 |
qu1j0t3 | certainly not! How could "Establishment" mean "old world order"?! | May 01 21:23 |
eikonos | i guess i get confused. i'm not sure what "new world order" and "old world older" even mean | May 01 21:26 |
qu1j0t3 | right, but history can help | May 01 21:26 |
eikonos | does "new world" mean after the discovery of electricity? | May 01 21:26 |
qu1j0t3 | you don't need the labels | May 01 21:26 |
eikonos | i suspected that | May 01 21:27 |
qu1j0t3 | you can just look at who has the power | May 01 21:27 |
qu1j0t3 | easier | May 01 21:27 |
eikonos | the people with the largest amounts of money | May 01 21:27 |
qu1j0t3 | usually | May 01 21:27 |
qu1j0t3 | power's handy for getting money | May 01 21:28 |
eikonos | and money's handy for getting power | May 01 21:28 |
qu1j0t3 | awesomely | May 01 21:28 |
qu1j0t3 | it's all working out nicely then | May 01 21:28 |
qu1j0t3 | isn't it? | May 01 21:28 |
eikonos | seems to be | May 01 21:28 |
qu1j0t3 | the best people get all the money because they deserve it, and of course they should be in charge, because they're better | May 01 21:29 |
