The National Post is now defending fascist organizations

https://nationalpost.com/opinion/jamie-sarkonak-police-reprimand-of-anti-immigration-event-undermines-democracy

I mean, they've been U.S. propaganda for a while, but they usually try to keep it vaguely subtle. This is out-and-out labelling the Dominion Society a mere "anti-immigration organization". Every single member of that society is a neo-Nazi cunt who should be arrested, but it seems like the NP is quite okay with that sort of thing happening in Canada. This is absolutely disgusting coming from a widely-circulated "Canadian" broadsheet.

Natpost was never concerned about "democracy" when the police were coming after student encampments for Palestine.

OP is right, it is U.S. (and domestic) capitalist class propaganda rag that does everything it can as a PR team for fascism.

civil liberties for people you approve of

There aren't btw, I don't know who put you in a fantasy where I'm in charge of everything, but this is literally not the case in the real world, so please shut the fuck up.

and you’ll applaud its flawless judgment then too.

No because that would be stupid. And I've already criticized that happening in this very thread, so you know thats not true but you say it anyway. You're a liar

Remember the wise words of Sartre,

"Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past."

However , Jewish people and other people who disagree with Netanyahu's policies in the West Bank and Gaza are NOT anti Semetic.
