651 – Free Speech and Communists, Straw Man Arguments, Food Nudges, Vax Pass and Open Business

SHOCK Video: Fidel Castro before he gained power denied he was a Socialist Communist. He claimed his government would be a democracy based on “Social Justice” Sound familiar? #WakeUpAmerica pic.twitter.com/PPZ9inTArH

Twitter posts are undermining Canada’s democracy, says Department @CdnHeritage. Briefing note says regulation of lawful but hurtful comments is needed for “a truly democratic debate”. https://t.co/0ogrdhpkrq @s_guilbeault @imondouisabelle #cdnpoli pic.twitter.com/58IdOmJTpT

I guess we shouldn’t be surprised that Justin Trudeau has been all but silent about what’s happening in Cuba. Not only because it’s routine for him to be soft on human rights abusers, but also because of his close friendship with this particular one. https://t.co/vpKd2Nyr6z

I want to be clear. I condemn the actions of the communist regime in Cuba and am calling on Justin Trudeau, Jagmeet Singh, Yves-François Blanchet, and Annamie Paul to do the same. pic.twitter.com/alOOBwHP7p

The Biden admin is "flagging problematic posts" on Facebook. Psaki says they are putting pressure on social media companies to increase "fact checking" efforts. Last year, "fact checking" efforts led to the censoring of the Hunter Biden laptop story and the Wuhan lab leak theory. pic.twitter.com/aomcoME9ys

An ethics investigation!!! Look out!! Is the part where everyone gets angry followed by a mountain of public outcry? Welcome to Canuckistan. If you don’t think the silent coup has already taken place, time to wake the fuck up. https://t.co/a0sDKTWSZw

This type of racism and intolerance is unacceptable and absolutely disgusting. So many Canadians who are helping the vaccine effort and are keeping us safe are immigrants, just like me. They deserve our thanks, not hate. https://t.co/eeuTgQSjWP

Same story over and over again with federal Indigenous Affairs bureaucracy in Ottawa, which simply spends money without focusing on results. Also explains why Canadians are spending $24.5 billion on Indigenous issues this year and gov't can't even get clean water to all reserves. https://t.co/RdbZw4rAzW

A waitress in Manitoba can demand to see your medical information yet you are not allowed to see hers. Pallister's government is a joke. https://t.co/F3S2ryDTD6

“No we aren’t doing it -“ @fordnation says on vaccine passports. “We aren’t going to have a split society.” Says he’s going to talk to PM tonight about federal vax card. #onpoli

It must go further. Ontario must prohibit businesses from asking about vaccination status. They’re leaving the door open. Vaccine passports for travel also make no sense as the vaccine does not prevent transmission, only reduces severity of illness. https://t.co/ed07uvH5J7

There will soon prison sentences attached to the new French law for vaccine passports.

If you are caught in a restaurant without proof of vaccination, you face up to six months in jail.

The restaurant owner faces up to a year for hosting you.

Does that sound extreme?

Here we go!

L.A. County announced it will reimpose an indoor mask mandate, regardless of your “vaccination” status, beginning Saturday night at 11:59 pm

Next announcement will be that L.A. county mandates “vaccines”. At what point will you stop submitting? What’s your red line?

Indiana University is being sued by students over their vaccine mandate.

Interestingly, the students are demanding to know *why* the school decided to mandate them. The school is fighting to prevent the release of those records.

Who gave that order? 🤔https://t.co/uNhKW6qoHS pic.twitter.com/4Ix3bWXn09

6/ Dr. Spiegelhalter tries to explain this by comparing vaxxinated elderly to unvaxxinated young. This is wrong. Vaxxed elderly should be compared to unvaxxed elderly if trying to understand cause of higher mortality in vaxxinated people. Regardless of vax, young are at low risk. pic.twitter.com/dYWXx5uvwF

Justin Trudeau said on Thursday that Canada could start allowing fully vaccinated Americans into the country as of mid-August for non-essential travel and should be in a position to welcome fully vaccinated travelers from all countries by early September.https://t.co/sBCsOv8G85
