He's as interesting and irritating as the guy who wrote a critique of his book.

There's also Marshall McLuhan, a philosopher who came with this phrase "The medium is the message".

Seriously, people (not just you, Janelle), if you have a point, state it. If a YouTube video backs it up, post the link. And supply a summary so that those of us who cannot watch YouTube at work can become intrigued and come back to it later, when we're off work.

Any post that says, "Hey, check this out," then produces a YouTube link with nothing more, I automatically ignore. If you cannot be bothered to summarize the major points of the video, then I'm not going to click it, especially if it leads to a ten-minute video. I've got better things to do during those ten minutes.
Agree x 10,000.

Probably the same way Putin wins all his matches against Sasquatch sized special ops guys... its rigged. Now I have no doubt Putin could take down 95% of men, its still rigged.

I saw a YouTube video portraying some of Trudeau’s inane, meandering liberal gibberish and a Canadian says in the comments “he’s a complete fan belt”

Now I’ve never heard a person referred to as a “fan belt” before but it made me laugh.

How about calling us by numbers just like in that old tv series "The Prisonner" or brick just like Pink Floyd song "Another brick in the wall"?

Anyway Justin Trudeau is Canada's counterpart of Mugabe/Coleman A. Young/Pinochet/Castro/etc... to put Canada on the road to Idiocracy.
Provincial workers. Canada has provinces
