HardCoreBlue got a reaction from Wideleft in Canadian Politics
A standard 'gotcha' response back:
Hey fill your boots buddy. I can't help if these facts don't fit your narrative.
For some, the strategy is to use well meaning words (Facts, Evidence, Objective, Neutral, Centrist, Moderate, Democracy, Proponent etc etc etc) for nefarious reasons.
It's a great strategy to use because it really helps convolute the discussion, always remaining slippery and never really revealing their true thoughts. When/if they are finally backed into a corner, you do see a bit more of who they really are.
None of us are perfect (except me of course) but I find some, more than others, are way past the curve of adopting this strategy on a consistent basis no matter the issue at hand.
We're a weird species.

I just want Boston out because it'll really open up the playoffs to all teams. As it stands, it feels like they're a team of destiny this year....

That's happened since humans landed on earth but since 2016 has been given a seat around the adult table.

It's sad when people just make stuff up, have no evidence and just yell at others. Pathetic actually.

It's not that they don't know better and need to be better informed, it's that they don't care what the verified facts say. It really doesn't matter to them, they will cast out their dispersions, project as some say when challenged by facts (or challenged by the best available information we have right now knowing its a constant evolution of learning) and carry on with their business projecting themselves as something they are not.
They'll read the above sentence and predictably mock it with bravado, say how dare one judges them based on the words they share and come in hot doing exactly what the bolded parts say.

The last Presidents' Trophy winner to lift the Stanley Cup was the 2012-13 Chicago Blackhawks.

I'd also give a bit of love to Appelton, he played outstanding.
The question is can they keep up this pace?

And those are people I like to be around whether I see the world exactly like them or not. Doesn't matter. Makes for great conversations and sharing.
