  • I’m sorry, I don’t prescribe to conspiracy theories and blanket statements.

    It would be ignorant to not notice the imperialist aspects of western hegemons supporting an ethnostate that destabilizes the middle east, the feedback loop of that creating support and lobby groups in the imperial states, the amount of money involved in the lobby groups, the military industrial complex and oil oligarchs that are elbows deep in it, the growing christo-fascist ideology in the US, or the affinity amongst colonial mindsets.

    And that’s just power dynamics. There’s also the social aspect and influences on different generations where the older generation empathizes with victims of WW2 while younger generations are far more removed and empathize with current victims; as well as the proliferation of information directly to the viewer instead of distilled through oligarchic owned media outlets - which is why there is a growing number of anti-Zionist Jewish groups breaking away from Israeli founding myths.
















  • I agree that the TFW is being heavily abused and that’s something that hasn’t been closed off since Trudeau and will continue under Carney.

    However, I don’t think broke students were fueling the 3200/month condo studio crisis. More likely that they were shacking up 5 to a room in the burbs in someone’s non compliant basement unit.

    Rent prices and development dropped because everyone is broke and holding onto their money during precarious times (it’s also more profitable to invest in stocks than real estate) - correlation of a drop in immigrants is not causation of drop in prices.
