I still can't get over the whole tariff idea for everything Canadian. Particularly power. Surely he understands that taxes and tariffs get passed on to consumers. That's how capitalism works.

Imagine Publicly Calling A Third Of Your Residents Trash.
Some people insist on posting hot takes to the internet, even when their opinions might seem ill-informed or downright dumb, because the thrill of instant attention and validation often outweighs the need for careful thought. In an age of social media where reaction and engagement are currency, a controversial or off-the-cuff remark can quickly garner likes, shares, and heated debates, making it seem like a shortcut to popularity.
For many, the rush of being noticed in a crowded digital space is enough to push them to share opinions without fully considering the consequences or the nuances of the topic. After all, no such thing as bad publicity, unfortunately.

If you saw Jon Stewarts interview with Carney. You know why.. He explained why Canada didn't get financially trashed in '07/'08..."we did monetary policy we understood".
At its core, the urge to post hot takes is tied to the desire for immediate recognition and a sense of superiority, even if it means sacrificing depth for the sake of a viral moment. Some individuals thrive on the adrenaline of sparking outrage or eliciting strong emotional responses, regardless of whether their ideas hold up under scrutiny. In a culture that often rewards soundbites and sensationalism, well-thought-out arguments can be overshadowed by those that simply grab attention by any means necessary.

This level of stupidity never ceases to amaze me. They'll say that the government forced them to have vaccines to prevent massive outbreaks of measles or polio and they had the vaccines but then there were no massive outbreaks, so therefore the vaccines were a waste of time. So close to understanding then they veer off right at the end.
There is also an element of performative identity at play. In a world where social media profiles often serve as a reflection of one's persona, posting a hot take can be a way for some to assert their individuality or align themselves with a perceived intellectual elite. Even if the content is shallow, the act of engaging in public debate or controversy can create a temporary feeling of belonging to a larger community of outspoken individuals.

This Didn't Age Well, To Put It Mildly
Generally, the drive to share hot takes, even those that are dumb, is less about the quality of the ideas and more about the pursuit of digital clout. When attention is easily measurable and public validation is just a click away, the incentive to participate in the echo chamber of superficial controversy remains strong, reinforcing a cycle where quantity of engagement often trumps quality of thought.

Capitalism doesn't dictate that. The owner's personal preferences, seating limits, how disruptive the customers are, how busy the day is...there are many reasons why a business could let you stay indefinitely or boot you out the moment you finish eating.

Why are people some people so self conscious about the word "cisgender?" It means "on the same side of gender," referring to a person who identifies with their s*x at birth. I would understand if somebody wasn't familiar with the term or was confused about it's meaning, but it was never intended to be derogatory or discriminating in anyway. People who make a big deal about the word are either not cisender themselves (fair enough), or transphobic in some shape or form. Why would they be uncomfortable with a word that literally describes their biology?
