Canada is an unusual place in one regard: You think that small towns have less crime? Not in Canada. The small towns can be scary.
Most Canadians have no clue, because most Canadians never leave the biggest cities. I actually find it pretty annoying, because Canada is a big place and most people don't know fuck all about what it's like, even people who "live in Canada".

Dear Japan,
Please stop putting so many bangers on each season.
I'm an old man now, and so I can't watch all these shows on account of having a life now.
Let's keep it to like 2-3 really good shows a season so I can pretend like I'm missing shows because I'm so cultured and such and not because I just can't sit down long enough to watch them all.
Best regards,
Old man SJ

Yeah, or people who end up with pets as a surrogate for what they really want to do in life.
Often, people start to worry about ecological damage when they start to feel stress about their ability to thrive. Historically speaking this makes sense -- if the prey animals start to go away, if the plants we harvest aren't producing food, and as a result we don't feel comfortable breeding, then worrying about the planet is a rational thing to do, so much that it's possible this connection is built into us on a genetic level, having been hunter gatherers for a million years.
This likely continues to today, we feel ecological anxiety when we're feeling stressed about our ability to thrive, but like many of our biological responses, that's somewhat out of date. Today young people are worried about a place to live, they don't know if they'll be able to feed themselves, but paradoxically our local environments are in some of the best shape they've been in a long time due to the environmental movements of the past century forcing bad actors to shape up. As a result, the ecological anxiety needs to go somewhere so instead of worrying about our local environments which are fine we start worrying about an invisible crisis in our global ecology.
There is a crisis and everyone knows it. The only real question is "what crisis is it?" And I think the real answer is that young people are suffocating. They can't afford a place to live, they struggle to afford food to eat, they can't afford to become worthy of a mate, they can't afford to have kids, they have no friends and feel like there's no way to meet friends, they don't know how to meet the opposite sex even if they could afford to date, theyre struggling and they can feel it. The internet, video games, they're cold comfort when people can sense their extinction coming.
I think this is why people are also going along with obviously insane ideas about various things -- people, both men and women, feel like they're going to suffocate in their current societal role so they're desperately searching for a new role, whatever it is, that will let them not go extinct. I suspect that this too might be deeply held in our DNA, people desperately trying to switch roles to find something that'll help them thrive. It's like the last scene in terminator 2 where the T1000 is dying in the lava and changes to all the different forms he's taken throughout the movie hoping desperately that one of the might get him out of the situation. People are suffering with their traditional roles, so they're trying alternatives desperately hoping a new role might allow them to succeed while they're suffocating.
The world doesn't make any sense if you take it at face value, but it might make sense if you look a bit deeper. One commentator was laughing going "gen z is dealing with the total inability to get a place to live and they're most anxious about climate change!" But another commentator pointed out that people start to be concerned about the environment when they feel like there's nowhere to go and they're trapped in the environment they live in. I agree that ecological issues are important, but they aren't imminent threats, they're long term threats that will manifest as consequences a few generations from now. It's not a reason to be anxious, just a reason to make better choices for tomorrow. On the other hand, the fear of dying childless and struggling and metaphorically worrying about the environment makes a lot of sense.
When people feel like they can't do anything to fix themselves, they start to act as if they can change the entire world instead. I think it's a Defense mechanism because if you try to change your life and fail it's immediate and obvious, but if you try to change the world and fail the world is so big who's to say you actually failed? In that sense it's easier to try to save the world from an imminent threat that isn't actually imminent instead of dealing with the fact most people don't think they'll ever own a home.
Would young people feel so anxious about climate change if they were on track to owning a home in a nice neighborhood with a yard? If they could have one parent stay at home to watch the kids they could afford to feed and clothe? If they felt like they were part of a community they called home?

The typical explanation of "the left can't meme" is that they only point out that the bad man is bad, which isn't really useful unless you already agree that the bad man is bad. It's like Soviet and Maoist propaganda in that regard. "Good man good! Bad man bad!" -- it isn't intended to convey anything meaningful, just to show what team you're on.
Above I see "bad man bad, he needs to be in jail", "bad man bad, following bad man stupid", "bad man bad, he peepee small", and "bad man bad we put bad man friends in jail"
The right does these sorts of memes occasionally as well, unfortunately.

I've found it's very regional. Some regions have really outstanding care, others are absolutely terrible. That doesn't necessarily dispute what you've said mind you, since it can be underinvested for years but have pockets of excellence regardless...
Seems to me like there's a signal/noise problem here. If you ran the same test with 352 adults and you gave them both placebos, and you ran it 10 times, would you get similar results and opposite results?
Awww, they should have stayed on strike for another 10 years. That'd show them greedy companies who's boss.
Assuming it's a public good, and I do think many things should be.
Even Canadian conservatives are not about the idea of shutting down our single payer healthcare. It's imperfect, but still net quite good. Even the PPC doesn't have it as part of their platform to end universal healthcare and instead plan to fund it better.

Lol the porn magazine that isn't a porn magazine fired the porn star who isn't a porn star
The only other problem is that people who are blind who also read braille is a minority within a minority.
My grandmother lost her sight to scarlet fever. She was well read thanks to books on tape, but never knew braille at all.
As far as I can tell, she's by far the norm, with 90% of blind people not knowing braille.

I have to admit, I think it was only a year or two ago that I found out that "wipe Israel off the map" was a lefty talking point, and I still find it really confusing.
I suspect this might have quite a bit to do with it.
And I'm not stuck in traffic I am traffic in this respect. 75% of people overweight or obese as of 2018, and I bet it's way worse post-covid now that a lot of people's activities out of the house have been heavily disrupted.

My favorite part is that these people are also very stupid.
You think that the Palestinians wouldn't all be standing there at the million parent march? It's like, these people never learned that "the enemy of my enemy is my friend" isn't actually true. Sometimes the enemy of your enemy is also your enemy. They aren't giving up their deeply held religious beliefs just because you said something nice about them on Twitter.

Many people in the military have bragged and written books about all the treason they committed under Trump.
And these people cheer for what is a military coup of the civilian leadership like retarded seals.
