Ok...telling me to touch grass tells me everything I need up know about you. I was right.

There was a lot of violence and sexual violence, torture, and extreme bondage. Things like clamping that result in obvious injury are considered obscene in Canada. Menacing is considered obscene. There were also murder and suicide videos.

The people who were fired weren't fired because of what they were looking at but because they refused to acknowledge what they were doing. One guy who was looking at extremely violent porn said "Yes, it was me. I have a problem." He got counselling and kept his job. A guy who was looking at violent bondage fought for weeks until I was able to correlate logs, password changes, MAC addresses, and door access logs to prove beyond any doubt that it was him. He was fired on the spot

They were often range officers, the guys who sit in the range office (the range is a hallway with cells in it). They were bored at night when the offenders were in bed asleep.

There had never been effective enforcement so they got away with it. It took some time for the meagre to get out that we were watching and that there would be consequences.

The problem is that many of the people inside are violent sexual offenders and porn can be used as currency in the illegal prison economy. I have no issues with porn personally but it was my job to enforce the policy. I was really only interested in illegal porn which is clearly defined in Canadian law.

Our work environment was pseudo legal, outside of the bounds of normal government office work. We were able to write our own policy, perform our own investigations, and even hold our own trials. I was involved in several disturbing investigations. A couple resulted in people getting fired.

One of the things I liked was the fact that I was able to deal with people who were simply out of bounds. I could call them and say, "Hi. It's MapleEngineer. I just wanted to remind you that we can see everything you do online and that you have obligations under [policy]. There is nothing in writing and if we don't talk again no one will ever find it about this conversation." That solved 95% of the problems. 4.9 percent were handled by their manager if I saw them in the logs again. Very few results in formal investigations but I was never wrong.

Years ago I worked in IT policy enforcement. My job was to review what employees were doing on the internet that fell outside of what was permitted. We had automated systems that did most of the work but I was responsible for looking at exceptions. I would occasionally send my wife a note telling her that I was coming through to my home office and that no one should talk to me. I would retreat to my office and emerge when I had calmed down enough to interact with people.

My boss told me when I started in the role that it was only possible to do it for so long before you needed to stop. He told me that I could raise my hand at any point and say, "I can't do this anymore." and he would take me off.

I worked in corrections. The people I was watching were staff who worked directly with the offenders. I saw some truly fucked up stuff.

I was only looking at things coming in and going out through the corporate firewall. We were in a correctional environment so porn was prohibited. I was mostly interested in things that were illegal or dangerous. I dealt with anything that wasn't criminal. Anything that wad criminal I referred up them responded to requests from the investigating officer when they came. I often got requests from managers to pull full histories and look for things that were outside of my remit like wasting time at work. I refused those requests and any that were overly broad. Once an investigator got to know me they figured out how to make requests that I would agree to fulfill.

I've never understood putting an "lol" or an "lmao" or an "rofl" in a message. Are you trying to suggest that you're smarter than I am or that what I said wrong or stupid? Are you trying to intimidate me? That is definitely not what I take away from it.

I react very much the same way Russians do to people smiling in photos.

I left there almost 15 years ago and have been working for US companies in international security. I have never looked back.

I don't hate the US. I love Canada. I understand that Canada is one of the best places in the world to live. Those who think they will be better in a country with less freedom, less rights, less safety, and a higher cost of living because they bought in to the right wing bullshit may very well be better off moving to the US. I know Canada will be better for it.

I love in Canada but have worked for US companies and worked internationally for 15 years. I would never, ever move to the US. Ever.

My belief is that the people moving to the US are moving there for, "freedumb" (no realizing that Canadians enjoy more actual freedom and have better protection of their rights than Americans do) I'm more than ok with that.

Nice straw man. Typical propagandist.

Cost of Living in United States is 8.6% higher than in Canada (without rent)

Cost of Living Including Rent in United States is 14.1% higher than in Canada

Rent Prices in United States are 26.0% higher than in Canada

Restaurant Prices in United States are 8.7% higher than in Canada

Groceries Prices in United States are 5.2% higher than in Canada

But by all means, go on spreading your propaganda.

Peterborough mayor Diane Therrien became embroiled in a minor controversy after stating "fuck off, you fuckwads" on social media in reaction to the group's actions.

I think that Ms. Therrien effectively summed it up.

That's awesome. I have Asperger's and always ask, "Teach me what you like. Show me how you get off." then, "Do you like this? Do you like this? More or less? Do you like this here?" If they can teach me what they like I will do it and variations on the theme.

One thing that I think really benefited my technique was watching my wife and an old fuck buddy of mine go down on each other. I noticed that they both did the same thing so I tried it to very positive reviews.

The "Queen of Canada", Queen Romana Dildo.

I'm not sure if you completely missed my point or if hating Canada is so big a part of your identity now that you just can't miss any opportunity to spread that Rusian and Chinese anti-Canadian propaganda.

EDIT: 7 day old propaganda drone account.

I don't think anyone who knows me hates me. I'm pretty easy to get along with.

Online...

That largely depends on who you talk to. Lots of people dislike my opinions.

Christofascists, white supremacists, white nationalists, racists, anti-vaxers, neo-Nazis and Nazis, anti-choicers, anti-maskers, Covid deniers, vegan extremists, incels and incucks, Puritans, the US Taliban, magats and the anti-reality crowd, the convoyists, the Save-The-Children crowd and Queen Dildo and her ragtag band of morons, PETA, the rabid pro-gun I'm-terrified-of-everything-so-I-need-a-grenade-launcher-to-buy-donuts crowd, and others seem to dislike the things I say. Of course tankies, trans extremists, the anti-gun crowd, and others who hate the first group also dislike some of the things I say. Just about everyone who lives in an echo bunker dislikes the reality I speak.

I say things that many people dislike but they tend to be the controlling-what-other-people-do mob and people who live in evil bunkers but generally I think I'm a good person and the people around me seem to think so too no matter where they lie on the political, religious, or social spectrum.

I live in Canada, 15 km from the US border. When shit kicks off down there millions of them could come north expecting that Canada will welcome them with open arms. We will be unable to feed or house them. Many will die of exposure in the first winter. They should go south and hope that Mexico will take them in.

The US has tranferred $2 triliion to the wealthy since 1976 losing the war on drugs. Making drug addiction illegal is just a way to justify transferring another $2 trillion to the wealthy. It's not about ending drug addiction. It's about profit with a side dish of punishing those that they think they are better than.

Tell me you're American without telling me you're American.

I recently had sex with a longtime friend who didn't really seem to know her way around a blowjob. I'm getting ready to have a playdate with a married friend whose husband wants to watch. As a result of the first and in anticipation of the second I made up an essay about what I like when receiving head and offered it to my married friend. She accepted and said that she was happy that I did.

He wants to watch and participate. Not cucking.

No, Gordon writes essays to give to people about how he likes to get head.

I read that Gordon Ramsey does the same thing.

That largely depends on who you talk to.

Christofascists think I'm bad. White supremacists, white nationalists, racists, anti-vaxers, neo-Nazis and Nazis, anti-choicers, anti-maskers, Covid deniers, vegan extremists, incels and incucks, Puritans, the US Taliban, magats and the anti-reality crowd, the convoyists, the Save-The-Children crowd and Queen Dildo and her ragtag band of morons, PETA, the rabid pro-gun I'm-terrified-of-everything-so-I-need-a-grenade-launcher-to-buy-donuts crowd, and others think I'm bad but so do the tankies, and trans extremists, the anti-gun crowd, and others who hate the first group. Just about everyone who lives in an echo bunker would think I'm bad.

I do things that many people think are bad but they tend to be the controlling-what-other-people-do mob but generally I think I'm a good person and the people around me seem to think so too no matter where they lie on the political, religious, or social spectrum.

Two months ago the lymph node under my left collar bone got very inflamed. I went to the doctor who ordered an ultrasound and chest x-ray. The ultrasound was, "worrying" so they ordered a CT. The CT suggested that my lymph nodes had gone bad. I spent the last two months afraid that I was going to leave my kids unsupported as one was finishing her first year of university and the other his first year of high school. A couple of days ago I got the best possible news under the circumstances that I have Hodgkins Lymphoma which is curable and I am expected to go on and live a long life.

"Young woman" is what that greasy sack of shit child sex trafficker Matt Gaetz called his victim. It's an attempt to age them in the listeners mind.

If the Supreme Court rules that the president has absolute immunity Biden should immediately order the arrest of Trump, the christofascist SCOTUS justices, and the MAGA crowd in Congress and the Senate. He should fix the US electoral system to do away with gerrymandering and give every citizen the right to vote and equal access to the ballot box.

Supporters of the ranked choice repeal suggested they might face threats, harassment or reprisals for their donations and support...

Because that's what they would do. Every accusation is an admission.

There’s a rule banning “self-preferencing.” That’s when platforms push their often inferior, in-house products and hide superior products made by their rivals.

Spaz isn't going to like this.

I met my wife on ICQ. I had random chat turned on and she said, "Hello." That was a long time ago

Who the fuck cares what that fetid fascist sack of pustulant assholes says?

Fascist crabs in a barrel.

I worked for the federal government in Canada. When my wife was pregnant I went to my director and said, "I would like to take a couple of weeks or maybe a month off to help my wife after she has the baby." He asked, "What are you entitled to under the collective bargaining agreement?" I said, "The parents can share 9 months of parental leave but she doesn't work so that means I can take up to 9 months." he replied, "Then take the 9 months. It wasn't available when my wife had kids but I would love to have taken it. Take every day you're entitled to." So I did, once for each of my two kids. It wasn't a fucking summer vacation.

The fucking rich old white men are gaslighting you. The rest of the world has parental leave.

Vote better.

“We have a constitution that lays down the laws for us. As a republic, the individual is protected. So the minority can be protected. It’s not just majority rules.”

"We don't like that the majority that we don't agree with rules. We want a christofascist theocratic dictatorship where the minority we agree with rules.

They don't like democracy because they don't win.

There is only one reason to object to the drawing of fair electoral districts and that is that you know you can't win with fair electoral districts. Republicans hate free and fair elections because they can't win free and fair elections.

"Woke" is a name for their moral panic. It literally translates to, "anything I don't like. '

The actual definition is, "Aware of issues in society, especially issues of social justice." Like everything else they hate or that makes them feel shitty about themselves so they start hissing the word at anyone they don't like as a slur like, "liberal" and, "progressive".

Embrace the hate. I am a progressive liberal and I am woke. Your hate validates that I am correct.

Woke is an extremely useful term for identifying fascists, neo-fascists, christofascists, and their enablers and sympathizers. The moment you use the term "woke" unironically I know you're a fucking idiot.

The indoctrination to fear, hate, and self-loathing is so destructive to the individual and to society. This guy has tortured so many people, and himself, for so long.

I uninstall One Drive, and every other Microsoft product that they will let me uninstall, as part of my Windows install process. Then I disable anything else that I can. Microsoft is doing everything it can think of to convince me to finally make the switch to Linux.

Every accusation is a confession. They were right, we do need to protect the children, from them.
