Also I need to decide if I want to vote green or NDP
Also I liked when maxime bernier called out Singh for saying Singh opposed Bernier being invited to the debate, and Singh responded by saying everything bernier has said at the debate tonight proves that Bernier has no place being at the debate.
It was a pretty good burn
Oh huh,Singh I just noticed you wear an orange turban (since he literally just made a joke about it).
@Wipqozn yeh. i saw a video of a woman talking to Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez about how to fight climate change we have to be eating dead people and babies
> Astronomers have found 20 new moons orbiting Saturn, bumping its total up to 82 moons. That surpasses Jupiter, which was the prior reigning champion with 79 moons.
I didn't catch who the current debate moderator is, but she's awesome.
I like how May keeps comparing Justin to Harper by saying just sticking to the target Harper agreed to aren't good enough
hahaah holy fuck May
"With all due respect Scheer, you're not going to be prime minister..."
also they've gone really off the rails
I think this section is about environment and energy, but they haven't talked about that for a while
Also, I really like when signh said that Justin and Scheer were arguing about "who would be worse for Canada, but we gotta start asking who'd be best for Canada"
@Wipqozn Well this is the talk of the office this morning, which isn't even remotely surprising. Oh and a few folks in the office actually know her personally hahaha holy fuck. Why couldn't that protester just keep her mouth shut.
didn't realize it was two protesters. Thought it was just the one.
The other protesters really tried to get them to step away too, but they weren't having it.
They also yelled at her about driving her car...? Can't make that out. My word.
Hopefully next time they protest they try to organize themselves in such a way that only a few folks are really interacting with the public.
That's what they did over in Edmonton. One guy acted as the"lead" and stood ahead of everyone else, and just focused on talking to anyone with questions or deescalate when required.
@Unionhawk Yeah, they seem really unorganised in the pictures I saw. I think this may be their first protest? At least the first major one? So they probably are lacking experience.
@Yuuki Thing is, IMHO this changes the situation from "Blizzard bans a player because they try to bring public attention to a local geopolitical issue" to "Blizzard fires 2 casters for goading a contest winner into making a political statement they might not otherwise have made, and has no choice but to punish the player"
In the latter case, it feels like the main issue is the casters are trying to bring their political message using the medium of the player, and the casters are justifiably fired for that. The player is collateral and is used to send a message to other players to not react again in this way
@Elva Because he did something against the rules, and even though they might to some extent support his message, they still need to punish him because otherwise every esports player is gonna do this
I don't agree with the decision either, but I can see the logic behind it
@Elva There's a rule like that in every rulebook, exactly for situations like this where a player acts in a way that potentially may be harmful to the brand
@Elva yeah, but if he made the same statement in favor of nazis, or in favor or against socialism, or in favor or against democracy, he'd get the same punishment. A post-match interview is NOT the right place to promote your political point
Like, I agree wholeheartedly with what he said, I also disagree that he should be punished for it, but I can see the logic behind an international company that is about to release a major mobile game on the Chinese market not wanting their star players to offend that giant market
Note for Nzall: If you had just said "It's a pretty common thing though" we could have said "Yeah but still a shit thing" and all moved on with our lives much happier
Yeah, I understand I'm probably coming across as supportive of Blizzard's action here. for the record, I'm not, but I understand why they're doing it, even though I don't approve of it
It's just almost a work of art how the article completely ignores the fact that the gun shouldn't have been in a position to go off and ultimately blames a train
@TimStone To borrow from a John Oliver bit: to anyone who genuinely believes people need to travel outside of Louisiana to buy weed, let me introduce you to the concept of Louisiana State University.
