    Depends on the type. Hunting pests like rabbits possums pigs, inseason game like ducks, pheasant and deer is all great. I dont like hunting rare endangered animals or helicopter hunting with a machine gun except if its a pest culling like feral pigs.

    For the activity I really enjoy it. Its a great outdoor activity to do with friends and family. I like getting up early and heading out across the paddocks in the crisp morning and seeing the sun come out. I dont like butchering because im pretty odd about textures and smells but i’ll do it when i have to. I dont find it to be inhumane at all.


  • Good question. Lots of interesting answers here.

    Physically im not as fit as I’d like. I want to look like a roider but I dont want to roid. My ideal build is the guy in the gas mask leaning on the gate. I’d like to be someone who dresses nice and puts effort into looking good but I’m just not that guy no matter how much I want to be.

    Organisation wise I’m significantly behind. I want to on top of everything, having a plan for the next 6 months buying gifts ahead of time, making lunch for work every day. But I’m battling to get the rubbish out each week and missing any event I’m not directly reminded about. I cant plan to save my life I cant even follow cooking instructions.

    Mentally im close to where i want to be. I’m generally pretty content which is my biggest problem I don’t feel the need to go do uncomfortable things. People say im smart but they have low/no expertise so its not satisfying they don’t that im far away from where i want to be. One day I’d like to be at the point where someone i lookup to is impressed with my work.

    It’s a hard question because i have no idea how others view me. It’s hard for me to understand others. all I can do is put my thoughts in their body and then evaluate myself only using what i know they know. When people speak of me it’s a completely unrecognisable person to me.







  • The German saying is famous but not because they genuinely didnt know anything was going on. They were aware of persecution and rounding up of Jews and other minorities and some were aware of thr death camps.

    Most Isrealis are aware thats happening even if they dont know every detail I think we both agree that they should pickup that something is seriously wrong with their state. I think Germans at the time were the same and cannot hide behind an excuse of “we didnt know”. I also think Canadians at the time were aware of the expansion and encroachment of natives and supported the polices. Also assimilation policies.

    To preface this, I am not knowledgeable on Canadian history. I have done a few hours of generalised reading. What kind of dates do you want? I think narrowing we can narrow it down and focus on 1870 to 1950. I want to preface this by saying that I don’t think Canadians are 1000x mega Nazi’s nor do I think Isrealis are 100x mega Nazis. But I want your explanation on why these two things ate different because if im to accept your framing of isreal 100x Nazi I can only logically extend that to Canada 100x Nazi


  • There is no deflection, I am not disputing your claim I am asking about your worldview to see how and why you apply it in the way that you do. Ive already accepted the premise that Isreal is 100x worse than Nazi Germany I’m interested in why and how that differs to Canada. I assume by you posting such an extreme claim you wanted to have the conversation.

    Off the bad your comparison between isreal and Germany is a lie. German civilians were in fact aware of the holocaust and complict in supporting the regime. Canadians were also aware of what was happening to natives and supported those policies and that political rhetoric.

    So I can only assume that you either feel the same way about yourself or there is something different that you are evaluating. It seems to be time between the event and now. I dont think time between the event is meaningful given how short of a timeframe its been and how little remediation has been shown.

    So I assume you think once isreal Genocides 95% of Palestinians and then expands to the ‘greater isreal’. Some time passes and they do some land acknowledgements then you would you change your tune?









  • I dont know if its still going on but the Lindsey Clancy trial. I think she killed her kids and some people are using it to hate women and some are using it to hate men. I dont know why people are so invested. All I need to know was that its undisputed that she killed them and therefore she can be locked away. However the court chooses to do it jail or mental hospital doesnt matter to me.
