  • The Big Three news outlets in Canada pretty much ignored this story until the Kamloops local paper and social media picked it up. Now they’re all over it, pretending they were there first.

    And they’re all missing the crucial point.

    Second Sons are working very hard to stick to the rule of law, while instilling fear. They’re showing up in groups like this in smaller communities. They’re not in Calgary or Toronto or Vancouver, they’re north of Edmonton, or Orillia or Millarville.

    They show up, dress to intimidate, act to intimidate, but don’t actually threaten. They post overt dogwhistle slogans, “Je me souviens d’un Quebec blanc” or “Indian trucks kill canucks”) which they could plausibly explain away as something else, if forced to stand on trial.

    They’re getting bolder, which means they’re going to try to goad their victims into acting. They’ll obey the RCMP or local police (if the force is sufficient) without hesitation because as long as they keep showing up, as long as they keep scaring people, as long as they are able to avoid consequences for their actions, they’ll be able to hurt some people and recruit others.

    They need to be driven out by the people every time they show their…well not faces, but cowardly masks. They need to be not shot or injured, but maybe detained until the police can unmask and identify them by name.

    We need to publish their names. We need (and I can’t believe I would ever say this) to doxx them - to make them fear for their lives if they keep threatening society.

    We need to break the back of their movement, and the media isn’t helping one goddamn bit.











  • The answer is going to be both.

    Drones are the future of warfare. Ukraine has proven that.

    But if the US decides to invade, it absolutely WILL send troops over the border. And we’ll be there, shooting them down. Carney may have to undo Trudeau’s silly handgun restrictions for us RPAL holders for the good of Canada.

    I’m too old to be a soldier, but I can still hold a rifle. I’m not a violent person, but I will defend my country. I don’t believe that most people in the US support this, but I will shoot to kill any that come across the border with plans to invade.

    In my nearly 60 years on this planet, this is the first time I’ve said I will die defending my country.

    So yes, in a situation of war we support drones. We support attacks deep within US territory, rather than traditional face-to-face combat.

    But we will do whatever it takes to protect our country.



  • Oh my god, give it a fucking rest!

    You posted a link that required a login, and people said “I’m not signing up for a social media account just to read a single article.” Your response was to insult everyone and tell them that they signed up for lemmy so they should have no problem with EhNow.

    Quit acting so butthurt and grow up. You’re doing a great job of making me avoid EhNow.
