  Think of yourself as a christian and not a member of a club. That is your first step.

  Customers being frozen out of their bank accounts for political views is a very worrying trend ...

  yeah, so i know nigel farage is a bit of an abrasive twat.. he no doubt holds views that other people disagree with.. but that doesn't mean his bank can just tell him to sod off and freeze his accounts.. such a thing might go on in commie china or authoritarian russia.

  no doubt hitler closed lots of jewish people's accounts in nazi germany, too.. but the fact that it is happening here, in the yew-kay, is pretty chilling when you consider this country is supposed to champion freedoms, including the one to hold and express varying political views.. this seems to be part of a trend to delegitimise and cancel people who hold certain views.. i remember looking at a yt video of richard dawkins questioning muslim journalist mehdi hassan about his belief in flying horses and muhammad.

  all fair analysis and criticism by dawkins until he suggested that hassan shouldn't be a journalist because of his beliefs.

  Somehow i don’t believe the people who were protesting were actually employed in industries in which they were going to lose there jobs.

  I am sure that motel room cleaner or garbage truck driver wasnt really fighting for the right of the doctor or nurse to remain unvaxxed .

  I am still trying to understand what difference Canadian vaccination policy really meant if the United States had the same policies in place. Canada 🇨🇦 only shares a border with a single country. So you are mad you can’t enter a country from a country you technically can’t even enter to begin with?

  As Bill Shakespeare once said “ it is all sound and fury signifying nothing”.

  I went to use the ATM this morning and there was some anti-Vaxx literature conveniently left in the lobby. I wonder who use does stupid shit like that. Those fucking idiots are still having rallies and meeting and such. They are only people who really didn't want it to end.
  

  That so called Freedom Convoy was a national embarrassment. " I get free healthcare and don't have to follow any public health orders ". Even Americans didn't feel that entitled.

  I am working on the assumption he died of spontaneous combustion. Of course it was the fault of the vaccine.

  I was in the hall one time and the speaker started to talk about anal sex. He was all proud of himself and was like WTF man, there are kids here. This isn't appropriate man.

  Why the hell they need to talk about his kind of stuff is beyond me.

  Does anyone notice how ridiculous the claims are becoming as the pandemic becomes less and less relevant ? Seems like they desperately trying to hold on to there 15 minutes of fame.

  It’s weird how they don’t build hospitals or soup kitchens but have no problem building tributes to themselves.

  Poor metabolic health increases your risk for heart disease, diabetes, and stroke.

  it’s all a big fat lie.

  more precisely a big low-fat, high-carbohydrate lie.. 'it took dr. paul marik 12 weeks to prove that conventional wisdom about dieting is a lie, and that was just to himself.

  he lost 35 pounds, and cured himself of type 2 diabetes.

  I did the meat only diet for about two months and lost about 25 pounds but ended up with some horrible blood pressure problems.

  I talked to my doctor later and he said me if I want to lose weight, avoid the breads, sugars and potatoes but you need the fruits and veggies. Also stay away from Bacon. A lot of Youtube people say it is great but it is actually horrible for you.

  Also don't take medical advice from youtube.
