New Prime Minister, new relationship with China.
China’s playbook seems to consistently follow this pattern. If they get in a spat with anther country, the grudge continues until a new state leader comes into play, then all past grievances are reset. Sort of like Union-management - when a new collective agreement is signed, past active grievances tend to be voided.
Given that Carney is devout Catholic, we shall see if his dedication to the Pope, given the very tumultuous relationship between the Roman Catholic Pope and China, gets in the way of Good Governance in Canada’s policy decisions towards China.
“Fucking” is an intensifier in this sentence. The meaning would slightly change without it.
Fucking thank you
It is not an ‘intensifier’, it is just obnoxious. The purpose is not to enhance any meaning, but to ‘dominate’ over the reader. The word is used in an ‘adversarial’ context - an insult and a challenge to the reader. It is symbolic of the general anger that we see so commonly today, and I submit it is a direct cause if that anger. The demise of American civilility is completely mapped on to the curve for the use of these obnoxious, angry, combative vulgar terms in the common vernacular.
Opinion, not fact.
Opinion, not fact.
Opinion, not fact.
Opinion, not fact
Of that anger. Oh yeah, and opinion. Not fact.
First, opinion and not fact. Second, I’m Newfie. We swear like sailors because we are sailors. Third, human history is filled with profanity and vulgarity. So unless you want to try and argue that profanity was what caused Vesuvius to explode, you don’t really have a leg to stand on here.
Once again. This is not a rural elementary school. I do not owe it to you to not swear. You owe it to yourself to conduct yourself like an adult and avoid what you do not like. Preaching to people and trying to insist your opinion is objective truth will do you zero favors in any part of your life. You should probably knock that off.
Personally, I’d argue that people who insist their own beliefs are universal truth are the people who brought down the United States and every other major power in human history. You know, because that is actually what happened and there is documented evidence of. Not “Swearing collapses a countries civility.”
I’d say you don’t have a leg to stand on but that’s obvious to anyone looking at this conversation. All they see is me standing in a fuckfield that is barren and you leaning up against a collapsing fence.
If you can’t handle the word “fuck” then you shouldn’t be online. People are angry, and rightfully so, and should be able to express said anger without being tone policed.
