    but rather explains a trick that is used by propagandists all over the world

    Looks like you officially got the “propagandist” badge, congrats!

    Also, he pretends “aid” is an entirely innocuous word, as if all the good canadians want is to be nice, instead of putting it in context of the history of colonialism, where “aid” far too often meant chopped hands and burnt villages. But expecting a liberal to consider history might be a bit much.

    Libs just handwave any real inconsistency with their worldview by saying “well, it’s a trick! A magician’s sleight of hand! I don’t need to consider whether maybe my beliefs are wrong or incomplete, I can just declare it so, pull the wool over my eyes and go about my day!” Must be nice not having to consider reality.

      Talk about a worthless accolade with how willing libs are to hand 'em out to every Tom, Dick, and Sally that has the unmitigated gall to disagree with their FIVE EYES daddies.
