Propaganda strikes again
US, Germany, France, Australia and now Canada. With every new country i hear suppressing legitimate Israeli criticism it makes me want to criticize Israel even further.
I am extremely apalled at the actions of Israel and at the identity of Israel itself.
Well facism is already here and like last time, nobody noticed it being slipped inπ€‘
We're the frog in the pot of water ..... they just turned up the heat and we don't care ... we won't do anything until we're boiled alive, but by then, it'll be too late.
For everyone's information, I support our Liberal government and I do support any of our current governments (even if I disagree with them politically) because I still believe in the rule of law everywhere. I don't subscribe to wild conspiracy theories about any democratically elected government.
However, I still hold that we should always be ready to question and hold our government, police and those in power accountable for everything they say, do or on how they direct those under them.
The actions of these police is a step too far in intimidating someone with personal views. As she explained, those who disagree with her views should speak to their company, talk to the social media company or speak to other authorities .... you don't go straight to the police to ask them to intimidate a political opponent.
We have to stand up to this level of bullying and intimidation. This isn't Canada. This isn't what I support. This isn't our government and this is not representative of our country.
I stopped believing in the rule of law as an actual reality in Canada or anything more than an ideal in June 2010.
I personally found the part where they tell her to not contact certain people. Which people? It's never mentioned in the video. Is she just not supposed to say anything on social media again? How is that a reasonable response?
Now, if she was being blocked and creating new accounts to harass people, that would be more reasonable. Or if she was actually convicted of a crime. But until then, the police should just have to learn the difficult fact of life that people may not agree without any laws being broken.
This sounds bizarre and I need more context and information. Why is your only link a yt video? That shit takes forever to load.
Because YouTube is one of the more effective places to spread propaganda.
