  Shame

  Haliburton's actually quite nice, very good example of Canadian Shield natural beauty (lakes, granite, forests, hills), love camping in that region. It's a shame this guy is being such a dick, and our federal gov't is so useless. "Oops, we fucked up and empowered an asshole. You guys fix it."

  Sigh, not too sharp, eh? All poodles are dogs, but not all dogs are poodles.
  
  Even if most welfare recipients were immigrants, it doesn't mean most immigrants are welfare recipients.
  
  Now, to unpack the astounding racism of your post, that you could tell by looking who were immigrants, is, well, breathtaking.
  
  Let's be clear on what you were actually saying:
  
  > Have you visited a Social security office lately? Wall to wall [darkies] looking for a handout, with a very few [old white people] mixed in.
  
  Be sure to wash that white hood of yours before your next meeting, ya hear?

  Re: "The what now? Oh, that pile of text you sent us. Yeah we didn't read it, too much work."

  Google also egregiously and with malicious intent failed to put a TL;DR section in their filling as required by the Geneva convention.

  "They took er jerbs!"
  
  This seems predicated on some bizarre zero-sum concept of the economy. Immigrants, by and large, are not penniless good for nothings who just line up for welfare as soon as they're in.
  
  They come to build a life for themselves and their families.

• On the post: Theranos's Insane Campaign To Punish Whistleblower, Who Happened To Be Famous Boardmember's Grandson

  Reminds me of

  After he wrapped up, the leaders of Theranos stood before their employees and surveyed the room. Then a chant erupted. “Fuck you . . .,” employees began yelling in unison, “Carreyrou.” It began to grow louder still. “Fuck you, Carreyrou!” Soon men and women in lab coats, and programmers in T-shirts and jeans, joined in. They were chanting with fervor: “Fuck you, Carreyrou!,” they cried out. “Fuck you, Carreyrou! Fuck. You. Carrey-rou!"

  Boy that sounds awful familiar...

  They weren't fooled by it cause they're dumb. They were fooled by it because they don't care if it's true. It feeds into their narrative.

  Paying is de facto optional, and hidden fees and other anti-consumer actions make the option even less attractive.
  
  "Head in sand" is not a business model, all attempts by incumbents to the contrary notwithstanding.

  Re:

  There are no lawyers, it's a "pro-se" plaintiff. That being said, I'd think you'd need more than just a name to file a lawsuit. Address? Id? IANAL so not sure, but it seems there's a hole in the system if this goes through.
